    I hope your family is bearing up. I've heard from colleagues working in older persons services that it is very distressing for people with dementia when they have the level of capacity to understand that loved ones are no longer visiting them but lack the capacity to understand why.

      Thanks - we're all doing OK and the FiL has not much conception of the passing of time. It's harder on my wife to be fair. It's a small sacrifice compare to what others are having to make.
      ...my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...

        There are some times when you see a flash of recognition or memory that unveils the person. We have lost some relatives to dementia, its a terrible disease.

        Glad to hear its helping.
        Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
