Thankyou for saying something I always think, dementia is dementia, the how what where etc is tick boxes for doctors but for us it's dementia. My husbands road was multiple sclerosis from the age of 13, so it's easy to understand the how and what's, when you've had a disease from such a young age that essentially attacks the brain and causes brain damage, he's now 48 but we started noticing things probably 15-20 years ago but was fobbed off with brain fog( which we knew it wasn't). Strangely it finally being diagnosed came with a sigh of relief because we were thinking all sorts of things personality disorder, szitsophenia ( I know I've not spell that right) but anyway Thankyou.

You have made me aware of a path I hadn't known about. There are so many situations that are "dumped" on us and our only recourse is to control our reaction to them. It seems that you and your husband have done this by acknowledging the situation and standing your ground when others doubted. I'm proud of you. Keep me in the loop; I'm always interested in knowing your thoughts and your progress in this journey.
