The other day dh woke up and announced he had been water bombed in his sleep. Checked his bed and all the bedding, sheets etc wet. He did not realized he urinated in his sleep. He was confused why and who water bombed him. The incontinence happens a couple times a month so I was prepared for it with mattress pads etc. I was not prepared to give him a answer so I just acted nonchalant and told him I didn't care no big deal. Yikes I can't go back to the delusions and haulucinations. In November he started Sr. Daycare 3 x a wk. I was surprised to see in a group w his peers, he is the worst off. I'm reading all of the post old and new so I can prepare myself. The last neurologist apt the dr. said he could have 6 mo or3 yrs. Well I might as well ask a fortune teller. I don't think I can do another 3 yrs.
I know your feeling and many here do. My sister-in-law died after 9 years; my father-in-law close to 25 years. The thought of another 10 years is overwhelming. I try not to think about it but it is not easy.
