Dealing with a Spouse with a “Mild Cognitive Impairment”

Just wondering: Can you just water down her alcohol? Little by little she may not notice. But if it is beer, than would make it difficult. I am not a drinker so this is just a thought.

Thanks. Ahe pours her own drinks most of the time. If I suggest she slow down or that she’s had too much, I’m told she doesn’t care. And she can get very belligerent and threatening. If I tried to take it away, she would drive herself to get more. I guess I’m just venting. I’m not looking for a fix.
