No longer can safely cook.

I'm fortunate compared to others that have much more serious issues. But being the only caregiver for my wife I see things slowly slipping away. She always did most of the cooking, now it falls on me. She no longer responds to emails or text messages and most days does not get out of pajamas. Memory issues are definitely cropping up more and more as does the confusion over dates and appointments. I've learned patience and understanding go a long ways. Early on in joining this group I read about "the cavalry is not coming", it is so true.
