Welcome to the community. Can I ask where (country & state/province) you live - this will help us direct you to some local resources.

If you have not already connected with Alzheimer's Assoc. resources in Fresno, they do have a local office: alz.org/norcal/in_my_commun...

And a few local support groups for caregivers: alz.org/norcal/documents/Su...

Hope this helps. All the best.

Hi, I have just joined as well. I understand how hard it is, loving someone who has Alzheimer's. I grieved for five years before my husband died. During the long journey I tried to see the separation between my suffering and what he was feeling.

So sorry for the loss of your husband....it is a journey of something new everyday to tend to our love ones but very much a learning for us all as family.
