My FIL was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's in May and he doesn't appear to want to discuss it so anything we do that involves collecting info, meeting other people, sorting out finance and legalities, is done discretely/secretively.
I asked him if he feels any difference with his medication and he said "yeah fine" quite bluntly and like I had got his back up a bit so I didn't push the topic. But it is already the elephant in the room and I would love him to be with us in our proactive approach to his diagnosis. Should we leave him be though? Do your loved ones talk about their diagnosis or know about it?
