Hi again, @daisy2011 Yes, I agree, this disease can be very isolating to caregivers. It is what actually brought me to Mayo Connect in the first place. I found it a great way to be at home and yet reach out into the entire world and break that isolation. Or at least break it a bit! It is very hard when our loved one isn't communicating much anymore for sure. I know it was very hard in my case just as you describe!

Don't forget many of us are here and happy to visit, answer questions, and simply chat! it can be a great escape while still being right there for your loved one!

Strength, courage, and peace!
