What can I do to keep him busy?

Thank you. This is very helpful. He was diagnostic 3 years ago with diffused dementia, but exhibited behaviors at least 3 years before that. I gave up his phone because he couldn’t remember how to use it at all. I could kick myself now because all of the music he loved was on it. I am working to try and see if I can recover it, but I doubt if I can. The music is the piece I really want to get a handle on now. I use many of the others and work hard at scheduling, but my nature is to do to things as I think of them. Still struggle with his early morning confusion and sundowning.

Youtube music is free, and I can always find the song I want after typing the name into the search bar. You can request a 'station', so if he likes rock, opera or rock opera, whatever, you can find someone who has uploaded the music he likes so you won't have to hassle with trying to retrieve his favorites.
