Hi my OH is 66 and I think in the middle stages of vascular dementia. Recently he appears to be showing almost OCD tendencies namely with his shoes, putting them on taking them off over and over again. He also constantly moves items around the house randomly. All of this I assume is normal behaviour?
However recently he has been pooing in the bath, which is bad enough, but when I told him to use toilet roll and flush it down the toilet, I found that he threw it out of the window! Today, he pooed in the toilet, then took it out of the toilet. When I am trying to help him deal with it he just gets abusive. Is this another stage to be deal with? If so how do others cope with this?
