- Well, I snapped at my husband. I asked him to do something and he couldn't figure it out so I said ok, I'll just do it then. No, that's not when I snapped him. I snapped at him because he kept saying, "Are you mad because I didn't do that thing?"...
- How to Dance in the Rain It was a busy morning, about 8:30, when an elderly gentleman in his 80's arrived at the hospital to have stitches removed from his thumb. He said he was in a hurry as he had an appointment at 9:00 am. I took his...
- I have posted before about my husband's bad daughters and I did take everyone's advice and have taken them out of our life. They make no effort so I haven't...Well, last night he saw a picture of one of his daughter's and asked me who it was. He did...
- I just wanted to say that I think we have a really nice group here and I thank you all for you thoughts, ideas, etc. While a face to face group is good, the ability to come here and vent any time, any day helps me cope so much I can't even describe...
- I am wondering if your loved one knows they have ALZ. Even though it has been discussed in front of him at his doctor and I have talked with him about it I don't think he really knows. He says things like, "I wonder what is wrong with me?" He...
- I am just wondering how this group feels about the current health care discussion, I mean we are all of us facing one of the worst and costliest health problems a person can face and if you don't have good health insurance for this I would think it...
- This morning my husband came in the kitchen and told me he was going to call his mom and ask her if she could come live with her. Nothing bad had happened, we had just gotten out of bed so I asked him why he felt he needed to go live with his mom,...
- I just deactivated my husband's email and facebook accounts- he was no longer interested so why make extra work for myself.... I had kept them open "in case" his kids wanted to send him something but opening them and finding nothing was actually...
- We saw my husband's doctor today, the one he has been seeing since 2000 and who knows him very well. After he spoke with him for about half an hour he spoke to me alone and he said that he is progressing quickly in his illness. Progress in this case...
- This is me venting a frustration, maybe others have the same problem:I feel like I don't have anyone to really talk to about my husband. Due to his 'shadowing' I am NEVER alone. If someone calls on the phone he is right there beside me listening to...
- As you may recall a couple of months ago I told you that I received a letter from one of my husband's daughters (36) by his first wife in which she explained that she 'HATES' her dad and 'HATES' me and that she hopes we both burn in hell. She said...
- I am so relieved. We (I) have been approved for up to 12 hours a week of in-home respite care for my husband. We were even able to chose the person to do it! She is someone my husband already knows and is comfortable with. This is through the VA.
- I will find that my husband is just sitting and staring at me sometimes. I find it a little creepy. I mean, he is just sitting and STARING at me. Anyone else have this?
- I am wondering what things should be done legally- maybe a list of to do items, for example:1- get an advance directive2- get a power of attorney3- make a willother ideas, suggestions, what has worked, what has helped...
- This is just me venting a little........his repeating the same thing over and over and over is driving me nuts today!!!!!!!!! Oh, well it will be bedtime soon, that is when I get my peace and quiet.
