Ah yes.. my ever over-achieving husband does in fact have significant cognitive change. Sometimes, it's really really frustrating... the apathy, lack of response, etc. We were at a family wedding, and his older brother (who by the way has never once phoned or contacted him since diagnosed) was snivelling and petting him! ew!
So today, I say [in markedly perky fashion!] "Hey! Did you try the hair washer?" "Yup" "So how did it work out?" "I didn't use it." Allllllrighty then.
Sometimes I'm tired. Sometimes I'm cranky. Sometimes my brain hurts. Luckily I have you all to talk to, my dogs to hug, and a fairly warped sense of humor to keep me sane.
