My husband complains that I am treating him like a baby, does some odd things that he would never have done before. You can request a neuro-psych evaluation to determine deficits in thinking. These behaviors are especially evident when he has a UTI, so check for that. Two years later, some of the behaviors are no longer intermittent. https://teepasnow.com/blog/stop-the-baby-talk-3-reasons-why-you-should-not-treat-people-living-with-dementia-like-children/ Another great resource I've found is on Facebook: AARP Family Caregiving site. It is awesome, wonderful sharing of the journey and helpful advice. Council on Aging has a class called Caregiving Essentials, which presents various resources for the future.

Thanks, I've listed those helpful resources.
My husband had the battery of tests at Neuro doc earlier this year and returns January, so we'll know later how much he's declined.
Thanks again.
