Hello, i have just joined and was thinking of starting a thread as my dad was diognosed with early onset when i was nearly 15. As he has had it for nearly 3 years im seeing him getting worse with each passing day. As a young adult studying science i understand why he acts the way he does, but am still confused and tend to get frightened when he does act out. I have never met anyone my age who has a parent with alzheimers, my brother who is 15 has been going on this journey with me which has been terrifying. The most unerving thing that has been put on me is lasting power of attorney, my mum and i will both be sharing it. This process will begin once i have turned 18 at the end of the year.
