Thank you. Yes, your comments do help. I find solace in hearing from those of you who have walked the walk.
The facility did a fabulous Halloween buffet with great decorations. They make an effort to bring the fun to the residents. I don't know how this will turn out in the future, but for now, we are going to let my husband find his footing there.

If your hubby still enjoys a car ride, I would drive mine from Assistive Living to family's house, they would be out in the driveway, I would put down his window, they would come, greet him with joy, maybe 5-10 minutes, then hugs and waves good-bye. He did the best with these short visits, not requiring him to get up or hold conversation or listen to other people's conversation. I never took him to our home/our part of town, thought that would not be a nice thing to do where he can't come home.
