@jehjeh
Thank you and it does help. I just started noticing how frequently he is starting to do that. Before it was occasionally. This and his freaking out about going to the Doc. Thursday (my doc.). I drove but he was getting all confused about where we needed to turn etc. That freaked me out. We have been going to this facility for 2 years so it is not a new place.
He is taking out the garbage right now and I am laughing to myself wondering if I should start considering having a tag on him that gives his name and where to return him to? Now, part of me feels bad even thinking that. It's tough.
Hopefully I will be able to get a diagnosis on him the next time he starts with his round of doctors.

@kartwk don’t feel bad for thinking about an ID tag. Not a bad idea if it gets to that point. If I’d had the option when I was caring for my dad who had Alzheimer’s I would have put an air tag in his clothes. I once lost him in a mall restroom that tuned out to have a 2nd exit in 2008. I was absolutely freaked out by the possibilities of where he could have gone. All was good- he had sat down outside of the other entrance in a different alcove, and was enjoying people watching. To this day that was the most raw fear I have ever experienced, and I have been through some stuff .
