There are literally no exaggerations. Again, "scatterbrained" and aloof are actually quite the understatements. Any ditsy person can be described as such. Sis was slurring her speech, drooling, fainting, and yes confused and dazed, all of which are symptoms of dementia. Not saying it's GOTTA be dementia, but it's def more than "ADD! Shiny things in the audience!"
