Hello I'm new to this group but both myself and my husband are now full time carers for my father in law who has lived with us since September last year. He got the diagnosis of mixed dementia last December. At the moment he's in early stages so it's not too difficult yet. We are in the process of selling his tiny two bed bungalow. We then plan to sell our house and find a three bed bungalow for us all to live in. We are both retired and want to continue caring for him at home as long as possible.
Dare I say this though as much as we love him dearly the fact that he's with us 24/7 is taking its toll on our relationship (we've married for 39 years) I'm sure we'll adapt as time goes on but has anyone got any tips to help?
