My husband doesn't accept or acknowledge his condition either and I don't know quite how to handle it. When he asked me why he was going to a neurologist, I told him it was because of Alzheimer's, which he emphatically denied. I don't know if it's better for him to remain in ignorance or not, so I just go along as normally as I can. It's a lot for me to deal with, but friends and even strangers have been very kind...and patient, which is something I'm working on. I, too, would appreciate any advice about this denial.
