@goodold Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! I’m glad you found this site. How long have you been caring for your wife? What other problems do you have that the members could help you with?

Thank you for the question. I'm the primary care giver. She has been having memory issues for over 2 1/2 yrs now. We are now in a retirement home. She seems to have memory cycles. Last week she was almost her old self. This week is the worst yet.

She has almost no blatter control That causes lots of; "Go to the restroom." "No, I don't have to go so NO." And that causes many cleanups and waskings/dryer/cloths foldup cycles. We go through a lot of pads. She forgets to use the pads. I have to keep a close tab on that.
