My mum has Alzheimers. When she was first diagnosed I made up a photo album book using an online company (easy if you are OK on a computer; grandchildren would find it simple if not!), full of pictures going through her life, up to present day with all the family members she loves. She found it nice but a bit boring in the early days when she was still able to do more participatory active things, but now, a couple of years later, she is thrilled to go through it with any visitors. It's a new surprise each time it is produced {wink}! Her form of dementia means she recognises us all, but is distressed by her lack of memory for other things, yet the book really helps prompt memories from the past, giving us things to talk about and reminding her of happy times when we were all a lot younger. Your husband might not want to see this yet as it may seem like a precursor for sad times ahead, but it might be something useful to have ready for the right time. Of course it is harder for one's life partner to develop dementia than one's parent and I wish you much luck for the future. My mum is still happy most of the time and loves, if not a good belly laugh nowadays, at least a sweet smile and a wry smile too. She also loves to see little phone video clips of her grandchildren and great grand children; guaranteed to bring a smile to her face, whether they are new ones or from the past. Yes, great advice from posters advising you contact the Alzheimers Society for support for you both.
