Hello everyone I am new to this forum, took a while to work it out! My husband was diagnosed 3 years ago with vascular dementia, changed in March this year to Alsheimers. I have been coping quite well, in denial I think. Maybe they've got it wrong syndrome. Today after a particular random series of cognitive malfunctions on his part I have spent the day in deep despair. We are out of our comfort zone really moved from Cornwall to the north to be near our daughter and grandchildren. While she is supportive she also works long hours. I dont know anyone else really. I go to a dementia cafe and singing group with him once a month. All dementia based activities really, there is a lot of support to tap into here I just need to start asking He is 15 years older then me and I suppose I feel that my life is on hold. I am with him for the journey of course, but realization has just hit I think. I'm rambling, rather tired today.
