Welcome to the community, and thanks for reaching out. The title indicates your spouse has been diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Is this a recent event?

Welcome Missmushymushy to this wonderful community. There is an excellent book on MCI that might help you and your husband make some sense of the journey you are now on. It is called Living with Mild Cognitive Impairment (A Guide to Maximizing Brain Health and Reducing Risk of Dementia), It is written by Nicole D. Anderson, PhD and Kelly J. Murphy, PhD and Angela K. Troyer, PhD. I can give you the ISBN number and that should help you order the book from a source close to you. The ISBN number is 978-0-19-976482-2
