@skjm3 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! I’m glad that you are here and felt relaxed enough to start a discussion.It could turn out to be a very good one! Are there any other symptoms or behaviors that you recognize?

@becsbuddy He does have some tendencies to be over the top ‘everything’ needs to be put away, in the garage or condo. He rearranges items in the garage often . This may be done because he is board. However, he does not remember where he places some things. I try to keep tabs on where they are. 🙂
He needs his calendar for daily reminders, I place all his appointments only on his phone.
Short term memory is the biggest issue he has now.
It appears he feels more comfortable to talk to strangers, more so than immediate family members. He is a very friendly man. he always has been.
He was a truck driver until end of 2024, he still drives to mens coffee’s three times a week etc. He just prefers not to drive when we go out together.
One day at a time. Praying for forgiveness and grace daily. God is good.
