Hi all
I haven't been on for ages, never seem to have time. I have been having lots of bad days with myself lately. My hubby Charles has been diagnosed with vascular dementia, doctor reckons on the border of early to mid stage, but he does not accept that there is anything wrong with him. I have been trying to get him to do an enduring power of attorney, but he won't. Also he hasn't made a will yet (he is 71) and I have tried various approaches to try and get him to make one but he just gets angry with me and will not discuss it at all.
I am so tired of the incessant repeated questions day in day out and I don't know how much more I can take. Thankfully I am still working, which is my sanity, but I dread going home every day. We should be seeing the doctor again soon to see if he can go on tablets but she is not hopeful of that because she says they can affect the stomach and he already has tablets for his arthritis which affect his stomach and he is on another tablet to help protect his stomach, so you see it doesn't sound too hopeful.
Some days I just feel so helpless and so down and I know that its not going to get any better.
