I hesitate before writing as I feel ashamed about moaning yet again about coping with my husband's AD.
I am grateful he can wash and dress himself and is able to walk to the nearby shops without getting lost. Sleep walking is a problem at night, which in some ways is my fault forgetting to remove all keys from doors last thing at night. Failing to do this , will result in a phone call from the police, to say they have found my husband wandering down the road in his pajamas. I try very hard to keep him happy. He is so alone, has no friends and said he doesn't want any, or go anywhere. I feel very lonely when there is no conversation. When he does speak he will accuse me of something, and try and start and argument.
I know my problems are feeble compared to other peoples stories on this page, which are very upsetting, that I fear for the future. My whole well being at the moment seems to be consumed by this awful illness that I cannot move on. It seems I have the diagnosis, not my husband.
Forgive me, I suppose I am tired and unable to unload on my family who have enough problems of their own
