Hi @harleyshaw, I found, too, that after a while the neurologist lost interest, and now the geritrician has taken over. With the diagnosis of Alzheimer's, I was told my husband has 10 - 12 years. Other than the AD, he's in good health, but the reality of this disease is that damage to the brain eventually causes the other organs to fail.
The geritrician suggested I get some help in the house, more for me, than my husband, but at this time I'm not overtaxed with my care duties for him. She also advised me not to hire privately, but to get someone from an agency, insured and bonded, to avoid any claims of personal injury. She also advised me to put credit freezes in place so no one can open bank accounts, get credit cards, take out loans in our name, etc. It does alleviate some worry, and the're easy enough to unfreeze them should credit be needed at some point.
The only thing I thought, that might be odd, but could possibly be helpful is could you speak to the MVD, a manager, and ask them to send a letter to your wife saying she no longer is qualified to get a driver's license? If that's not feasible, maybe her physician would do it to take some of the blame off you.
Take care.
Thanks for the comments. I'll look into the credit freeze.
