@ihatediabetes Your son is blessed to have you on his side. You display both wisdom as well as a mother's heart! I wish you all well as your son attempts to transition to be in community. Teresa

I have some of the same with my husband of 87 years. He sees reflections in the windows at night and thinks people are spying on him. He doesn't have a good word to say of our two neighbors who would like to help him, but he refuses to have anything to do with them or even talk to them. They feel bad and I have explained his Alzheimer's diagnosis and assured them that it is not anything they did. But it still makes it difficult since he sits in front of the window and calls them names (not so they can hear him) when he sees them. Makes it very hard for me to not say anything to him.

@rmftucker You seem to be coping quite well with your husband's disorder. The example of how you cope is very helpful to our other members. Thanks for sharing with us. Teresa

Hirmftucker: I am sorry you are in a difficult place with your hubby. My husband is 89, has Asbestos and is oxygen all night and part of the day. He loses his temper quite often. He has had several surgeries for different types of cancer. Some tempermetal episodes. It is hard for me as I'm fighting two types of lung cancer too. Our oldest son has moved in with us to do our driving. A really big help. Most of the time I'm ok but I have some mental outbursts too. We have been married 66 years so we both have to cool it. I can't say much, but each time things are somewhat unbalanced I try to just walk into another room, go to the computer, Just something to change the direction of conversation and say a prayer for both of us.
