#2 and and AM confusion

My 44 bf who has eeoa for the last few weeks has been super disoriented in the mornings. I have to help him fine the bathroom and tell him to go to the bathroom. "Pull your pants down and sit on the toilet". Which takes a while as he will go in and out of the bathroom. Also he has stopped wiping his bottom after #2. I tell him I will help him and he won't let me. We change boxers A LOT!!!!!

we are all on this together 💜

    So sorry you have to be here, but this is where everyone not only understands your pain and also provides immeasurable support. Your BF is so young, too. Has he seen doctor/neurologist? It's important to get a diagnosis. He may have other physical causes for his confusion and not dementia diseases. Some are very treatable, especially if caught early.
