@judimahoney definitely!
But if it’s small he is actually capable of still doing lots of things. If he wants to safely lift a free pounds, he can wear a belt. Hopefully he has no discomfort from this small hernia.

Yes his small hernia should not keep him from doing most anything around here.
He does not complain about discomfort, and I ask him from time to time how it's feeling.
So, still a mystery why he won't help more. I don't think it's stubbornness, perhaps confusion? Maybe everything is just challenging for him now.
Due to the dementia he has no empathy, so seeing me work hard does not get him to kick into gear. I strive to not be mad at him, because I don't know how much he's struggling internally/mentally.
Take care, caregivers. 💓
