How relationships change when spouse has Alzheimers
Texasjar
My husband has had Alzheimers for several years and at this point, he is mid-level capability. He still wants intimacy but, as his full time caregiver, I don't have the same desires as before. How do I handle this?
Hi this is such a great question, I am glad you reached out. I think as relationships change, intimacy changes with it. There are lots of different ways to be intimate. I am sending over this article that offers tips that I hope can be helpful: https://alzheimersdisease.net/relationships.
