Hi @lindaloucg, I can imagine you are feeling overwhelmed. I'm bringing @ihatediabetes @adah @ess77 into this discussion to share their experiences. They also have adult children with multiple diagnoses and know that worry and overwhelm state.

Linda, does your son live with you? Have you contacted a local chapter of the Alzheimer's Association (https://www.alz.org/) for support for you?

Yes, Coleen, Derrick lives with me. I have support staff 2 days a week, 6 hours one day and 7 hours the other.
Thanks for the info for the Alzheimer's . I haven't contacted them simply because I'm afraid I haven't fully accepted it yet.
