I have posted a previous chat and received fantastic support and advice but here is another point on which I would appreciate comments.
My OH has what I think is now AD at the moderate stage. He has recently started making noises and breathes really loudly. Because he is very clingy - childlike - I cannot escape these noises and breathing. He is by my side all the time and follows me room by room. I should say the breathing is over and above normal but my OH has had a physical exam with the GP who can find no reason for it from his point of view. So have to deduce it is down to the AD. The noises are similar to a continuous shushing, shushing, shushing.
Does anyone else suffer? If he sits quietly he does not do it. It is getting me down as I can't get away from it. Anyone got experience and used ear plugs for example?
Thank you everyone for the advice under my previous post "Going Out" it's so good to know support is available.
