I guess we just have to realize that their brains are not working right. My husband just told me that he knew there was another woman in our house but he wanted me to know that he was not unfaithful to me. I laughed and then cried. Then I told him I didn't mind what he did while he was having an hallucination. We have been married for 55 years and he has been a wonderful husband. He has Alzheimer's with hallucinations and he imagines things that are not real. I try to think how hard this must be for my husband. He actually remembers things he has done that don't make sense and then apologizes later for what I am going through. It is odd to me how he can be so confused but then sometimes he can recall things that he has said.

bobbi,
I am sorry for what you are going through. I am only in the beginning of this journey and I have much compassion for you.

teri,
You spoke about last Easter. So how long have you been going through this? Where do you get your strength?

My husband felt ill today so we were not able to meet up with our family. First time in 55 years.
