I think my husband has vascular dementia - he is only 47 but has been ill for the last 20 months started with a series of mini strokes. He was a very active, intelligent fast thinking man. But is now a completely different person - agitated, anxious, forgetful,slow thinking, confused and seems totally unaware, or is denying, how out of sync he is. He won't see his doctor or any other health professionals as he says they won't know what is wrong! I'm finding it very difficult to cope, not so much with the day to day practicalities (we have a young daughter with ME and an elder son) but with his refusal to get help or diagnosis.
If there is anyone who has been through a similar situation I'd be really grateful to hear how they coped and how they got help. Thank you
