I had to reach out; I needed a Mayo connect friend. Today wasn't a good day.
My husband is still paying the bills but that's up and down, missed payments, up and down trying to log on to his PC accounts. He gets irritated easily, and that was never my mild mannered husband. Then he was hitting all kinds of buttons on his PC, where he was locking himself out of his accounts. I need to take over the bills, so I guess that's next in all of this. Thanks for letting me vent. I'm normally so positive but today, but boy he pushed my buttons.....I'm curious, is your husband on that brain supplement too, Cerefolin? Mine is along with the lequembe infusions.

Mine is on Galantamine. He takes it twice a day. I am here to listen any time. It is good to have someone who can relate. I hate to keep burdening my friends as they have their own problems., but they do listen. I also have those up and down days with frustration and anxiety.
Hang in there and positive thoughts!

@kjc48 I am in a very similar situation. I have taken over the finances, however, often my husband gets upset and says he is losing control of his accounts and that I took everything over without his knowledge. Well this is true because I had no choice. I do sit with him and do all the bill paying with him at the kitchen table but he doesn't remember that he was involved. It is very frustrating but we were getting past due notices as well or he was paying bills twice.
You are not alone. It is up and down with him but lately he has had some very tough days. I have found this blog to be helpful just knowing that there are so many of us in the same boat.
