He did for yrs love pics, but now he gets upset he smiles when I show him. He married mom when she was 22 and he was 27. He doesn't speak, I use chalk.
I tell him what is happening and how we all love him and he is safe. But can I tell him what's happening to his brain?
My husband was diagnosed in 2018 with vascular dementia, and while he still understood quite a bit then(though his speech was limited due to a massive stroke)I never shared that with him, as I knew the life expectancy was only 5 years,(he died in 2020)and I didn't want him knowing that. I just wanted him to live out his life knowing that I was going to take care of him and that he was safe and well loved.
Wishing you and your dad the very best.
