I haven’t heard of it as a sign of dementia, but could it be a sign of her body winding down

Hi. Wonder if you ladies have any experience of this. Mum 92 is sleeping in until at least 3pm everyday and has been for a while now, she doesn’t get up straight away as she feels dizzy and sick, she’s eating breakfast at 5pm everyday. The Dr thinks she has vascular dementia but we don’t have a formal diagnosis.
She has recently had blood tests, they were all normal. Ive never heard of this before, is it a symptom of dementia ?
