      We did... but I'm understanding why more and more. You are going through more than I am at this point. And, honestly, you had a good point if my dad was accepting of his condition and where it is headed. Sometimes I wish he wouldn't hold on to life so hard. I know it is only going to get worse and I want him to keep his dignity that is quickly disappearing. :( Let's start anew. HUGS

      From alicefaye August 22

      Hi Tooyoung's - I have early dementia (even early is still pretty bad most of time) and recently stopped driving on my own. However, I am fortunate to have my hubby who can drive me when I must go somewhere. I realized how dangerous driving was after I got so confused and wondered if I had been to my mother's house or not which was where I was headed when I left the house. This is a familiar neighborhood - I grew up there. To the point: I hope my famiily will try to keep me from driving or doing other dangerous things as you have for your, and that they will put me into a safe environment when I get to the point I can't distinguish safe from unsafe. God Bless You and Yours, Alice Faye

      I am so sorry you are going thru such stress with your husband, I am in the beginning/intermediate stages of AD and I must say I think the care takers suffer a lot more than their Loved ones. God Bless and my prayers are with your journey
