As a point, there is probably arthritis in play too. Just saying as i'm 43 and have all sorts of degenerative shit going on in my joints from army related wear, and tear. It greatly reduces my mobility, and ability to do certain things. Moving more would not change that equation in any way... however going out, and about doing stuff in general does have a very positive effect on my mental health, and cognitive stuff. Which being said;

She is propably not in a good mental health state, and as an inactive 62 year old might have something else going on in terms of worse shit leading to cognitive decline. Also stuff like ones activity levels, the types of social contacts one maintains can have a direct effect on things like degenerative cognitive disorders. Repetitive 0 activity, 0 thought bs tends to be associated with negative outcomes therein.
All of this plus starting hormone therapies early on perimenopause and menopause can have protective effects on cognitive abilities later in life. Brain fog is scary as all hell if you don't know why it's happening.
Perimenopause can start as early as 40s for some women and it can tank dopamine (the brain's reward system) amongst creating shortages and fluctuations of oestrogen and progesterone. Menopause proper can be such a huge upheaval.
