Sheri definitely sees things changing with Bob. "Al's" confusion has Bob frustrated and the tension is showing. It is showing with simple things, like missing articles of clothing when he gets dressed or undressed, the signs she has up in the bathroom are no longer queuing him as to what to do. Sheri has watched him not be able to put a sandwich together, refold a towel that he just folded, and wash the same dish over again. Not to long ago he only showed repetition in his speech and questions not his actions. She has heard it from the beginning, it only gets worse.
Sheri hates this disease.

Oh, Sheri, I feel your pain. I have been fooling myself for the past year, but I am coming to accept my DH is worsening also. He has reached the stage where he needs verbal cues for simple actions like using a drinking fountain or getting dressed appropriately. Stay strong- I tell people that God has a plan, I don't have to know what it is. I only have to make the best decisions I can and trust the Holy Spirit is guiding me- and you.
ReplyDeleteWish for "like" button. Thoughts are with you as you witness and testify to these incremental, creeping losses. It requires fortitude and bravery. You've got this...
ReplyDeleteMy husband is not that far along, can still do simple tasks (I thought). He sprayed all the weeds in the yard with Roundup, then sprayed all the weeds on the lawn. Roundup is a weed and grass killer. You can imagine, I have a polka dot lawn.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you are experiencing these losses as well. But we are in this together. :)
ReplyDeleteit is so easy to fool ourselfs isn't it? We would rather just pretend it does not exsist.:(
