Gerry. you might benefit from joining the CARE list. We discuss these kinds of issues and some have found caregiving techniques that help to alleviate at least some of the stress. It is difficult to see someone you love become dependent and not as responsive. Perhaps in time, Brig will regain some of his past personality once the UTIs are effectively treated. Jamie has gained more ground over the past week, which pleases me. ----------- God bless Mary Ann (CG Jamie 67/27 with PD) www.bentwillowfarm.org Since Brig had the fall, and he tore out the catherer in hospital, he has had 4 severe UTI infectiions. The fall combined with the infections have left him so confused, I don't know my own husband. He was termporarily in a nursing home, I brought him home to try and help him. I am having no success, it is a horrible realization to see this virile man who has suffered since he was 46, finally come to this state. With that vacant look(as though he is looking right through you), as well, we are both frustrated. > Gerry > -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
