#dementia #aging #UnHappyHolidays
My husband has an early onset form of dementia.
It’s #FrontoTemporalLobarDegeneration behavioral variant or #FTDbv.
My 31 year old daughter invited him home for the holidays.
He’s been in a skilled nursing facility #SNF for two months and he begs to come home.
I tell him constantly, truthfully, I want nothing more than that.
I can’t keep him safe.
He won’t want to go back.
My poor daughter doesn’t understand.
I just needed to say that.
