ACCEPTING THAT MY HUSBAND HAS DEMENTIA

It was one thing to find out that my husband of 57 was diagnosed with Dementia, but I think it has taken me at least 2 years to actually accept and believe it. Sometimes he can seem so "normal" when he talks to people he hasn't seen for a long time or has brief conversations with people in passing.  They will say to me "he seems fine".  Oh how this can make you feel even worse, as you clearly know that he is not fine, hence the lonely illness. I wonder if I have truly accepted it?
