Yes. I too, am the "cruise director" organizing daily activities for my 85 yr old husband, 2 yrs into ALZ.
Fortunately he is physically fit, attends adult day programs two days a week, enjoys church, grocery shopping , walks, etc.
We still do some travelling but I have to plan it all.
He is obviously so much better …i.e. alert, talkative on the days he is socially engaged. I’ll try to keep doing it while he’s at this stage, knowing that it won’t last forever.
