Thank you for the kind words. I’m glad you are getting back to spending time with your family. It sounds as if your husband is in a lovely facility.

I recall feeling quite relieved when I placed my cousin in Memory Care. I assume it’s more difficult to do with a spouse, as my mom is very torn and hesitant to place my dad. I’m not. I believe in preserving the life of the family members, as the person with dementia will not remember the sacrifice. Placement without his consent will be challenging though. While extremely affected in some ways, he’s sharp in others. Probably a tough task ahead.
