Re: [Spouses with Alzheimers] Placement in Long Term Care Facility

Hi!

My husband has dementia. It's getting harder by the day to care for him at
home. Last night about 1:00 he for some reason went into the kitchen and fell.
It took me some time to be able to get him up. He's forgetting how to
stand, for me to get his clothes on him. His walking is getting harder.
Sometimes
he takes little maybe 3 inch steps. I want to first try getting a sitter or
something. The "home" thing is something I can't get my brain around yet.
