Hello
Although my husband hasn’t had an official diagnosis of dementia , I think he is suffering from it .
After my initial troubles with social services etc , he got a place in a nursing home and we have chc funding .
My husband was kept bedbound for a few weeks and I have only just persuaded the care home to lift him out of bed so they put him in a tiltin space chair every day for about 2 hours and bring him to the lounge area .
So everyday I try and have a conversation with him but everyday all he wants to know is when we can go .
He keeps saying : let’s go
His mobility is nil anyway but he doesn’t understand that we can’t just go !
I don’t know what to say to him and I come out of there every day feeling down because I can’t see any solution
Has any of you kind people out there got any tips they could share please ?
