I am so sorry to hear about your girlfriend’s behavior and I can relate to Will acting like my son or child. I know he is very sensitive and has feelings of being abandoned and won’t go to any institution, and I want to take care of him at home. If his memory got very bad and he didn’t know what was going on, I might consider an institution, for his sake as well as mine.
You are fortunate to have family near you to help you out. We have no one in either family to help us. They offer money, but we need their love and being involved as much as they can be, to our situation.
So sad when family or friends just don’t seem to care.
