My name is TowerofStrength. Which of course I am not. But it seemed a far better idea than a name which sounds wobbly, which would be nearer the truth.
My husband thinks he is quite normal apart from forgetting what he went upstairs for. I find it so difficult to tell him he is not. I understand that this is quite the wrong thing to do anyway. But when he wants to do things that I would hesitate to 'let' him do because of fears of what might go wrong, he wants reasons. The reasons are things that he cannot accept. He sees me as a controller and a blocker. There has to be a way round this.
