@diane07710 Oh my gosh, you hit the nail on the head. I don’t think anyone who is not living this personally and up close has an inkling of the denial/coverup! It is such a hard road! The constant pretending, lying, faking, etc.,etc., I was never around someone with cognitive issues until it was my own husband! No words!

@lkbous exactly. For me, my friend had manipulative and deceptive (even lying), noon-empathetic characteristics anyway but I could still enjoy his good qualities.
Now, I really can’t trust him because all of that has increased, along with other new “behaviors” (suspected symptoms).
How diss one have a relationship without trust??

@lkbous My mother in law was the same way.....I don't know how my father in law could deal with it....and everything had to be her way...she thought she knew it all.

@lkbous I am in your shoes.
