Husband doesn't recognize me: Struggling to keep him safe

I appreciate everyone sharing as I can we all have similar issues. My husband still has many good days and even remembers things I thought he would forget. However, it is off and on. Do most of your spouses still remember family members? They say my husband is middle stage but he still remembers others. Most of his confusion is with me. I have been told it has to do with the double life and the Face Blindness.

Hi: my husband forgets the name of our newest grandson, however he remembers the names of our grandchildren that were born before his diagnosis.
He is starting to forget the names of more distant family, like nephews, but still remembers immediate family.
I separate his memory into the 'before time' as I call it, and now.
Take care 🫂

@lulululu My husband, who is in year four since diagnosis, doesn’t always remember the names or the relationship of family or friends, but he does still recognizes faces when he sees them.
