I cared for my husband who was dying of Alzheimers. I have extensive knowledge of therapeutic nutrition. I used all I knew to try to slow or reverse his illness. I don’t know if I succeeded in slowing it, but what I did succeed in was keeping his physical health in pretty good shape. The end result was I could honor his wish to die at home, and he was physically healthy and mobile up until the last month before he died. I would write more, but I need to go to sleep now, but will come back tomorrow.
I am sorry and you are so brave. I fear Alzheimer’s although the link between brain injury and it are not conclusive yet. I just don’t want it while my mother is alive. What you did was heroic and kind. I have to admit I have gained a TON of weight. You just kind of give up but I must start fighting back.
Your love for your husband is beautiful.
Bless you!
