I am new to TP. Not at all sure I should be saying hello here as am finding it difficult to find my way around, My wife(71) has alzheimers. The signs were there 15years ago and she has been on medication for 2. Things are getting worse at an increasing rate. Now thinking there are other people in the house. Disorientated, not thinking this is our house. Does nothing in the house, except pottering around moving things around and packing her favourite things into numerous small bags ready to "take back" to (she usually says) the town where she was brought up and where her brother still lives and the place she always used to say has bad memories for her. These bags now fully cover the floor in a spare bedroom and are added to most days. Quite often does not see me as her husband. One question I have is would travelling long distance make the disorientation worse? We have a daughter in living abroad and I fear that we have now made our last visit. Any other comments concerning our present situation would also be most welcome. I look forward to using the excellent TP forums more. Hello to everyone out there.
