Camilla, My only experience with demenia is with what altzheimers has. I dont know if it is any easier the early begging to leave after agreeing that outside help is needed. It seems that no way is an easy road they all are filled sometimes with guilt and the idea that you are wrong no matter how much you tell your self that it is the only solution. I wonder what used to happen in the past when a family member became to unwilling or too violent to be at home any longer? It is good that your family all agree and were privy to the decision to have Peter move to a safer place for both of you. I have seen one family member be the one who wont let go of the person no matter how much better it would be for all. In a strong family unit one hopes that the decision can be discussed and agreed upon or at least all be aware of a possible decision later on. I think you know that my thoughts are with you and your family in the hopes that your Peter will be in a better medical situation very soon. It is so hard for a wife or anyone who is the main person to have to watch a partner in pain. It is good that you are able to find the strength inside that is needed to not only be there and remain strong for him but mainly be strong for you.. My best to you, Audrey ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
