Wonder what the doc's would make of our diagnosis?? It's strange how they dismiss the people who spend the most time with their patients, who live with and know their ways and equally know when something is not right.
We are fortunate that when I finished work I was made redundant and used my money to buy a caravan in anglesey - George's passion was planes especially Military and the van is very close to an air base - he has lost all interest and that's major for him - our dog well his dog really - he can't be bothered with but he used spend hours teasing him and playing with him, it might not seem much to outsiders but it is so disheartening to see him losing interest . Now he is going to a centre where he is painting and is enjoying it but he cannot multi-task so this is his new passion - nothing else matters when he is lucid - only painting another picture.
I have only kept a diary of what happens for him when he is actually out of sorts but now I am going to write daily about his moods and general health if nothing else I will be prepared for the next TIA!
I have really felt much better myself since finding out that the the site covered his illness, I don't feel so isolated. I have also just started reading Selfish pigs guide to Caring - I am not alone!!!
Thanks
Anne
