Hi am new here, I am after some advice on how to support my partner, who is caring for his elderly dad. Help is very limited for him as he is an only child and there are no other family members to assist him. The dad lives with my other half, he told me that after a conversation this week with his dad, he feels that he is far worse than he realised. He cannot recall events, members of passed family, he shouts and swears at my partner despite all his efforts to ensure his dad is well looked after. I can see how much frustration and hurt this is causing him, it worries me. We both know the stages of this horrible disease, i am not sure though at what stage his dad is really at and I find it difficult to talk to him about what is to come as I know it will get much worse. I dont like to discuss it with my partner deeply as I don't want to distress him and cause additional upset. So you see if there is somebody who is in the same predicament as me or anybody who can help me to help them I would really appreciate any advice, tips or experiences that you may pass my way.... Many Thanks ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
