I am so glad to read this. I just came up on your question (albeit late) and know from my own experience with my husband's LBD that Abraham is NOT your friend when dealing with dementia. He's late stage LBD now after having been originally diagnosed early onset Alzheimer's four years ago at age 54. He's lost about 75 pounds now in 7-1/2 months and has less and less interest in eating, despite doubling his appetite stimulant Rx. My husband's been given roughly six months now if he continues at present rate of decline. I hope you end up with more time.
