My wife, if left alone in the next room, will do all sorts of things like a 3 year old. It feels like a flashback to when our kids were that age. Even the delusions are almost like play time when little kids played house or story time. The changes in cognition are interesting. My wife has trouble sometimes thinking through the proces of taking her meds. Pick up the pill, put it in your mouth, take a sip of water, and swallow. Sometimes she an't do that with out help

Yes, joedeb, I have to cue my husband in the steps of taking his meds just like you do. Same thing with brushing his teeth and shaving. I found a 4 in one shampoo, conditioner, body soap and face soap for his shower so I don’t have to tell him which product to pick up.
He also makes funny faces and noises before attempting these tasks that have become difficult and frustrating for him. What’s the developmental age - 3 or 4 years old? Didn’t have kids so I can’t compare.
