Confusion

This morning on the way to work I told DH I was looking forward to my vacation day tomorrow. He looked at me like "do I know about this?". I told him I was taking a class at my local quilt shop. He just got that man look that says there she goes again.

Just the same, he should have had a reaction that showed that he didn't remember me telling him about it. Because I didn't tell him about it. I wasn't sure how to bring it up in conversation.

Contrary to logic I wished he had said something to indicate that I hadn't told him yet.

Please keep praying for all dementia patients and their friends, family and caregivers.

Still small memory episodes

Every evening when I get home from work DH asks what is for supper. Last night I told him we were having a pork roast. I started the roast while DH was snoozing through the even news. DH woke up and asked again what are we having for supper.

Although this seems minor, it is still a concern. It is not the first time this question repeating circumstance has happened.

Please continue to pray for all dementia patients, their caregivers, families and friends. Also pray for the doctor's and nurses who care for dementia patients.

More short term forgetfulness

We are back to a two car family. I have the choice of the Buick or the Mercury. The Mercury has a heater for the winter that plugs in to keep the oil and engine warm. Yesterday DH reminded me four times that if I took the Mercury to work today I would have to unplug it before I drove it. This morning he reminded me a fifth time.

I think he is aware of what is happening. Last night a medium sized fight of words broke out. He has been so stable with his temper for the last two months. I don't know if this is a sign of frustration.

Until I have sufficient information I am not going to confide in the doctor about what I am thinking. More observation is needed between then and now.

Please keep praying for all dementia patients, their caregivers and extended family and friends.
