66. What you are dealing with is so hard, I know from experience with my wonderful husband. My heart goes out to you.

He had short term memory loss and any stay in a hospital for more than 1 night quickly turned into full on hospital induced dementia. Once he was able to leave the hospital he began recovering immediately on the drive home and returned to his normal quickly. I’m sending you both good vibes and best wishes ❤️🩷❤️
