Have been looking at the comments about behaviour. My husband who is now in the moderate to severe phase of vascular dementia. Lately he has. Started making comments of a sexual innuendo at random times. It's ok with people we know well we just laugh and say "behave yourself" as they understand the problem but with anyone else it's so embarrassing. He seems pretty obsessed with sex just now as if he's 25 (raging hormones as my carer counsellor says). He's 76! He chats to any woman he comes in contact with saying he could easily get another woman. It's really getting me down and I don't know how to handle it. Any suggestions please.
It is harder for a partner than for a daughter.
I and sister use to say we loose mom, she was changed for a dementia daughter.
For us, dementia hurts us, dementia stole mom, dementia made mom not recognise us. So we hate dementia and we love mom.
