@jehjeh, people living with dementia, often have a mild form of aphasia. In the case of your husband, this seems to have come on suddenly and was temporary.
How is your husband doing now? Have you noticed any changes in his speech since the episode?

He seemed to have returned to baseline until very early this morning. All he could say was his sister's name. Over and over. This lasted about 2-3 hours then he returned to normal.
I hate this disease!!!!
My sister had a very rare form of cancer. There was almost no research being done but at least doctors could tell us what to expect as it progressed. With dementia it seems like research has only revealed that it's different for everyone and every day will be a surprise, and not the good kind.
If I deliver my husband so much I'd get in the car and start driving and not look back.
