ok ......so story so far.... Hubby diagnosed 3 yrs ago with AD (he 69 me 50 )..... memory tests been conducted every 6 months....... usual stuff .... no major changes.
However 3 weeks ago had a really bad fall (not sure what happened i was at work came home to find him with a massive bang/lump on his head and phoned 999, A&E were rubbish and paid him little attention then sent him home same night..........so have asked Memory Nurse to arrange medical assessment which is tomorrow) His confusion and memory have been significantly worse since up to point the that when his daughter visited after the fall he had no idea who she was? and when the other one turned up 2 weeks later then the same !!?? (not my kids and tbh not fans of mine or theirs (2nd marriage and all that..... but all the same his daughters and grandchildren )
i have since reduced my hours at work to be home with him more.......
so tonight trying to explain the appt tomorrow to get the bump on head checked out .............this now apparently this is all about me trying to get his driving license took off him !? he doesnt remember being diagnosed 3 yrs ago, he doesn't remember friggin fallin 3 weeks ago!! but apparently i gotta be careful what i say !! ........................ just needed to sound off guys !! i have spent the last 4 hrs going through this with him! no solution however and he has now gone off to bed in a sulk (cos they gonna take his license!!....) I however have another glass of wine and a fag and am watching Wentworth in peace !!!
