New person who is caregiver for spouse and finding no one to talk to

@jenniferkr What is hard to grasp, for me, is that they apparently favor/care more for their friends than for their own family. I know we aren’t as interesting, to them. But, my family was more important to me, than anyone else in the world ! I wanted to see them, be with them, talk with them. I understand we aren’t all alike, but my heart can’t understand leaving family out, to the biggest extent !

@dederickve I agree 100%. Family should take priority and always had for us. In some ways I suspect that it is difficult to accept and they feel their loved one with dementia is alreay gone. Very tragic. I share with my husband memories of our life's experiences that he does not remember. It brings so much happiness to him. He may not remember but he lives it again. Too bad the family members are missing out on some joy that remains.
