@afotoart i can only imagine how difficult this time is for you. But you can make it a very constructive time. Find old photo albums of trips, children, good times, and have them available. You can help him relive all the memories! Also, make your house safe to prevent falls. Do you have an Area Agency on Aging in your town? They most probably have lots of information and referrals.

Now, don’t do everything today! Start with making a list of what you’d like to do and just slowly work on it. And DON’T forget to take care of yourself!

You could also enlist some of his friends who could come visit and talk of old times. And there may be dementia support groups in the area. And don’t forget US—were here to help and support you

Thank you for your thoughtfulness. I really appreciate the support. Most of his friends are ill as well with cancer too. Life if really difficult right now, but God will get us through this, as He always does. I pray all of the time for his guidance and support. God is so faithful. I truly believe that things will be ok, his will be done.
