My H is 63, has had alzeimers for 5 years. I have been with him all day which is normal..took him out with the dogs down by the river...tonight we were watching tv, he told me he loves me (hasnt said this for quite a while) and said he hasnt seen me for ages, and what has my day been like..im so scared!!!

He's not forgetting YOU, he's forgetting the events of the day. Utterly normal.

Hello @olliebel, please feel free to post on the forum as often as you want. We all understand and you will get support.

What Beate says is true - memory is a big issue. There is also the fact that time perception can change and minutes can seem like hours/days. My wife has both these problems.
