Good morning all. Many thanks for your kindness. It really means a lot to me. Hugs to you both @Yviestevie. The care home is 15 mins , dorr to door, which is great. He hates it, and blames me for him being there. Refuses to believe there's anything wrong with him and says it's all my doing to "get the house" . Hard work
Oh ‘eck @Hostafan1 … that’s him trying to make sense of things … Ma made horrid accusations at one stage … all you can do is just carry on being you and making sure he’s getting the care he needs. 15 mins away is brilliant 😊 I need to get a move on … i have to head into the city … Specsavers are expecting me 👓

@Yviestevie sorry to hear your oh has eye complications hoping he can get some help with it, he does sound to be making good progress in his recovery.
Horrid for your wife's relatives @steephill. We found funerals are much less personal experience during these times. I understand with the rise in numbers schedule is important but so is doing a good job and when stepson mother passed unexpectedly it seemed to be like the staff were more like bouncers and little care was taken over doing a good job.
Good to hear OH has been found a place so local to you @Hostafan1. I'm guessing as he can't see changes in himself he assumed the reason for his move lays with everyone else, not him, but you've been advised by professionals as to what is best for both of you so try to remember that. Sending you love and hugs x
I'm happy for you @Hostafan1 that he's so close and accessible but so very sorry about all the rest. Dealing with multiple cancers is enough enough on its own to change behaviour without the added complication of Alzheimer's so please don't let the hurtful things he says sink in deep. It isn't really him saying them. I wish you strength.
It is cooler today with some cloudy bits. Good for some weeding later if I can summon the energy after a crap night. The moon was golden/amber rather than silvery but still very bright and with the shutters on ventilate that meant light. I decamped for a while and researched sofa fabrics online. Hard to find plain cotton. Not long after I finally dropped off Cosmos came in and decided my feet needed a grab and chew. Persistent wee chap. Usually goes for OH's feet. Add to that much knee throbbing and I'm a wreck.
I hope you're keeping warm and enjoying winter @Pat E. Lots of colouring and drawing? Hope you get some news soon @Yviestevie.
Hugs to all in need of one.
