My Mother is 66 years. Recently she has become stupid and forgetful, could it be onset of dementia or Alzheimers or is it the normal process of growing old?

Unfortunately, that's not a question anyone but a doctor can answer. She needs to be evaluated by a physician for a true diagnosis. Sorry if that doesn't help you.
