@grandmajoan sometimes you have to tell little white lies so that the pacient agrees with you. Ist all part of your journey to keep both happy. They don't know the difference and you both are happy. If she/he uses the wrong words but you know what they mean its OK to agree with what they say or call something.

Hi, since i fail at outsmarting Dementia each day it seems silly to reply. But i have found a couple work arounds.
I need signs on all the doors to remind him to be quick going in and out. So i told him that I am forgetting about our new kitty and he escaped outside a couple times. He has accepted it but doesn’t like the signs.
The other one is just listening or agreeing to things he thinks he remembers, or has experienced, or has seen before. It could be locations, tv shows that are new, or experiences that could not have happened. I don’t know if he’s “filling in the gaps” or delusional. Either way it doesn’t hurt anyone to pretend he’s correct.
Hope this gives you ideas about your situation.
Hugs
