Yeah, my mom has those days, and worse still she had really steep emotional changes, she's fine one minute and angry the next, which is hard on my dad.
I've told my Dad that even on the days where she clearly doesn't know who he is, to still have a nice visit, talk about general things, and also try to answer he questions simply.
Also, I told him to cut his visits shorter, he can't spend all day long with her, its exhausting for both.
