    Father has dementia, not certain if it's ALZ, but he's 96, in AL and WANTS TO GO BACK HOME. Despite repeated attempts to change the subject, ignore the subject, after five months, he keeps asking about my two siblings  and I and anyone who will listen, call the movers. We have involved appropriate staff at AL to the situation, but he keeps calling us and wanting to know why he can't see the house and his treasures....

    Since we are cleaning out the clutter (organized hoarder) and preparing to sell the house, we are uncertain what to tell him about his house.....

    Any suggestions??
