"He is now getting flashback of years gone by when he was young, it takes a few nurses to handle him now at times, it's very very sad as he went down hill in his health quickly!!" Peace my friend. | ||

May not recognise family at all but at least he will have forgotten all about the frustrations of not being able to remember. It becomes harder on family but easier on the patient. | ||
