Hi, I haven't seen major personality changes yet in my husband who was recently diagnosed with MCI, but definitely personality changes.
The diagnosis was a relief, because I just thought we were having problems in our marriage. Now I have to work on my reactions when I get frustrated.

Hello. I’m 57 and my partner is 64. In brief, I got breast cancer 6 years ago - mastectomy, chemo and radiotherapy, the lot He was pretty hopeless during my treatment - didn’t know or want to care for me. For some reason, maybe Covid, we stayed the course. Fast forward 6 years and he was diagnosed with MCI by one consultant and told he’d simply ‘ lost his mojo’ by another and that his brain scans were reassuringly clear . All I know, is on a day to day level I mostly hate him and feel too guilty to leave. He makes nice days awful, refuses to go places and tells me “ I don’t like you” We’ve been together 23 years and I left my husband for him. Why oh why does no one on here just say, I’ve had enough, I’m done and leave their MCI partner? This is NOT the person we knew, would we stay with an alien? Aaargh xx
