I'm learning tht this is a shared experience. Thank you for the hugs. It helps me to read of others dealing with the disease. I fear of other simple health issues like colds, upset stomach, etc. becoming much biggr issues.
It took me a while to learn the different types of dementia. My wife did not really had any parkinsons like symptom before her dementia onset. She was clearly heading for LBD.
How does one decide when this is too much to do at home? I am a firm believer that staying in ones home as long as possible is the best for us and for the whole elder care system. Some points in time will be easy: rapid decline in health.

I asked my husband's preference if I could no longer care for him, and thought I'd better ask while he's still fairly competent, cognitively. He said he prefers to stay in our home, so I may need help here someday.
I read everyone's posts to try and stay on top of things.
Thanks.
