Manage episode 358001808 series 3448769
Welcome to Dementia Spotlight! tips, truths, and straight talk about Alzheimer’s and the many other forms of dementia.
Bobbi and Mike answer the following caregiver's question on today's episode of Tips, Truths, and Straight Talk: "My husband is at the point of diapers, not being able to use a fork and spoon, and wandering. He can still carry on a conversation; he thinks I am his mother. The dog is his childhood dog, he knows who our kids are. I am looking at a care home for him and they have a waiting list of 14 people. Should I add his name to the list or is it too soon?"
Great question. Listen to the episode to find Bobbi and Mike's answer.
Interesting and informative guests will join us on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of every month. On the opposite Wednesdays, we will provide straight talk about what people need to know before and after caregiving begins, including controversial issues others tend to avoid.
