In Sept 2010 Dad had to stop Driving he has been good & never driven since , Mum lets Him put the Car away in the Garage should he be doing this ? as the other Week he "Re Parked " the Car in the Parking Spot where Mum had parked the Car well in the Lines . Feel Dad should not have his own "Keys " any more !
Best bit of Good News have had since 2009/2010 when coming to terms with Dad having Dementia My emotions were all over the place at that time ! ! Am hoping it will give him " A Window of a better quality of life & he can enjoy life more !
After being told 3 or 4 Weeks late Dad is on Aricept , annoyed Mum, because had spoken to the Consultant twice . Only asking him a reasonable question " Asking him why Dad was not on Meds "( Nov 2010 ) He would not have benifited from them then Mum finds it hard to acept how the illness is making a change in Dad
