Hello: My husband does not have many big emotions anymore. When he heard his diagnosis he just said, "Oh" and said no more. His brother died last summer and he would not even accept a hug and didn't even cry. It's like he's had a lobotomy.
My husband also has what is known as anosognosia, meaning no self-awareness. He doesn't even realize he has dementia. This made for difficulties when it came time to surrender his driver's license and debit/credit cards.
That's our situation.
All the best to you. 🌻

@judimahoney Thank you.
We will see what the dr says tomorrow? I know he is aware of his forgetfulness but he gets angry if I disagree with him then he doesn’t remember. Tonight when he had his dessert he said he did not have a spoon when I said it was in his bowl he got mad he said it wasn’t, he just didn’t see it. Not sure how to deal with that.
