My frustration is off the charts

@shmerdloff Definitely a true statement. My husband was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia, which I haven't seen anyone else here on this forum talk about? But so often, he says, I don't think I have that. I almost have to laugh-as ALL of his symptoms are spot on with Lewy Body. It's just a total crap way to go out. No cure, progression...... and just not much knowledge of the disease at all. So many stages, good days, bad days. I said it before in reply to another post-I've come to realize that this is happening for a reason. Seems almost cruel, but something will be learned, some sort of growth will happen... Something positive will come of all of this. We have to be strong like bull!!! 😉

@sporkandromi
I keep thinking that for a person with dementia, it's almost a gift for them not to know what's happening. Not the least, they are spared the pain of leaving their loved ones , even their own life, behind.
We end up bearing our own pain, and also taking on theirs. It's kind of heroic?
