Hi Guys! Well, Dave is still in the hospital. He had a Code Blue event yesterday afternoon. He passed out and his pulse fell dramatically but they got him stablized and he's ok. We have a nice place lined up to move him into . Hopefully he can move this week. He is still very confused but still recognizes everyone. Some of the things that he says are so funny! Can't help but laugh but he is now in full blown Dementia. He will be well taken care of in a lovely new facility close to home. Still hard to believe this is happening ! I am so glad that my son is living with me. He's been a great help. Even cleans my house.! I have been too busy and too tired lately to post but I will keep you all posted!:wave:

Thanks for taking the time to keep us updated.
I don't know how you do it.
Things seem to be happening so fast.:(
You are a very strong woman.
Please remember to take care of yourself- eat properly and try to get plenty of rest.
I know that won't be easy, that is why I said "TRY."
Like I said earlier, I've been down this hard road-twice-just not with a spouse.
Hopefully we (SO Members) can be some support to you, even though we are miles away :)
You will be in my thoughts!:wave:

Thanks Foggy! I know it's going to be a long hard road ahead but so far so good. Looking forward to getting him out of the hospital and into a home this week. :wave:

In times like these I find it extremely difficult to get from one day to another. The best thing to do is to lean on the Lord. He will see you through no matter the situation. He’s helped me with every breath I take.

Great news! Dave is out of the hospital and is settling into his new home at the beautiful Memory Care Center. He was so happy today! Smiling from ear to ear ! We are so relieved knowing he will be getting excellent care. Thanks to you all for your prayers and well wishes! There are 4 types of Dementia . Dave has Lewy Body Dementia.
