I can empathise with all of these posts.
I am new here and am really struggling. My husband of 52 years is becoming a stranger to me. He has been showing signs for over 2 years but has now been diagnosed with cerebral atrophy and is still having further tests. He has been advised to stop driving and is SO angry with me! Its all my fault! I made the appointments, Ive sold him down the river, he never thought I would turn into such a bitch and he wishes I would f.... off!
He NEVER used such cruel and abusive language to me previously and it is SO hard to take.
His personality change, aggression, and lack of empathy are so very hard to cope with.
Does this make any kind of sense?
Has everyone been through this stage, how long does it last, and how do you cope with the hurtful and critical comments? He gets so angry when I NEED to see others and go out and does not want me to see my beloved grandchildren. I feel so sad.
