All of these replies are so familiar- it is as if I had written all of them individually.
Tips:
Do not hide this from your friends
Use this group as your group- we all get it
Deactivate all his credit cards
I give my spouse cash to pay for our meals at Waffle House and other places where a money transaction is easy
Accept things and try to find a positive in everything- such as “he did a terrible job painting the door but it kept him busy for three days”
I remind my spouse that we are working on his “brain health” and that Mayo diagnosed him with brain bleeding.
Peace and love-
