Kittylester may have good advice for you. I hope she sees this. I feel very sorry for you.

That's so sad, have you had time yet to look into local support groups?

No help to offer, I’m afraid, but sending thoughts and empathy.

My DH was recently diognosed with Alzheimer's disease. I have been aware of problems for some years. These are early days and I am already stressed. He is hard of hearing and refuses to wear his aids , I am constantly repeating myself because he either can't hear or has forgotten what I said. There are occasions when he is irrational and unreasonable. I am scared for our future and devastated to be losing the love of my life. He is very muddled about dates and times and I find I am overseeing most aspects of his life - and this is just the beginning!! Today I am feeling rubbish and just feeling sorry for myself. Thank you for reading.
