Hello Katrina,
Your paragraph about realizing your husband doesn't know you, hit home for me. It's hard to describe how I feels when I realize my husband doesn't know who I am. It then make me wonder how long it had been going on before I realized it! Breaks my heart every time!

Hi @trishaanderson Your post struck a chord with me. The constant changes of dementia in our loved ones' abilities was one of the harder aspects of this disease for me for certain.

I had to constantly remind myself that it was my wife who was changing (or her love for me, etc.) but it was her broken brain that was interfering with what we had been experiencing for decades before. It was always a challenge!

Wishing you continued Strength, Courage, & Peace
