My dear friend, who was the caregiver for her mother, suggested that I get our legal matters in place sooner than later. I just updated our wills and estate planning documents last week. More peace of mind for me if my husband were to decline faster...Actually, as I'm typing this, my husband just mentioned for the 5th time in the last hour, how appreciative he is for me taking care of everything. Gotta love him...
He has talked about going grocery shopping and having lunch tomorrow 6 times already. I just say" that will be fun".
My friend shared the below responses that she found
Agree, never argue
Divert, never reason
Distract, never shame
Reassure, never lecture
Repeat, never say I told you
Ask, never demand
Encourage, never condescend
Reinforce never force
Do what they can do, never say you can't

I keep this in my drawer by my chair. It's not easy to remember when you frustration can build at times
Gotta love Him!!
