Dealing with a Spouse with a “Mild Cognitive Impairment”

One of our together pleasures was a glass of wine together. Now my husband only has a glass once or twice a week. He has found some fun nonalcoholic beers- they are actually very popular.
As for me, I still enjoy a small glass at dinner or with friends. But I miss having it with him.

I've been told to avoid alcohol because of an aortic aneurysm that was recently diagnosed. I've switched to non-alcoholic wine and, honestly, I think I like it as well or better than the real thing. I used to drink half a bottle of wine a day with my husband. It was something that we could still share since he's been diagnosed with dementia. He can still drink and I can join him with my alcohol-free wine and that works. It was easier to switch than I thought.
