Dealing with a Spouse with a “Mild Cognitive Impairment”

Perhaps your husband is unable to process his issues because he's cognitively impaired. Some folks have no awareness that they have challenges, it's called anosognosia (you can do a search on this site for more info).
Do you want to start dating and documenting what behaviors are off his normal? That way you can share with medical professionals when they asked what's up and you have 15 minutes, tops.
All the best to you. 🌺

Well...that sure was informative!! Thank you so much. I am reading about anosognosia and I do see some of my husbands behavior. Especially denial and mild anger when I approach with my concerns. This information will help me go further down the path -
