Mary, I see that your post above was in 2023.. You are correct that this memory issue must be different for everyone.. Hope you are able to cope with the huge issue of caring for your husband. You mentioned that you have been thinking of a long term care placement for your him, and maybe he is placed by this time. It's tough to be a full time caregiver, something I know well, too.. My husband is my caregiver now and this has really changed who he is.. Thank goodness, he entertains himself by playing Pickleball 2 or 3 times/week and he enjoys getting out for a couple of hours, talking with others, etc. altho he is the oldest Pickleball player in his group. We are both in our earliest 80's.. He was always playing tennis in the past, so that has been helpful at keeping him active..
This is my first day on this site, and I did write a few comments on another location.. If you are willing, I would love to communicate with you here.. It's perfect for me! I'm afraid to talk to folks in person.. it seems that I'm misunderstood far too often.. Hope I'm a good girl...
