in Caring For a Spouse or Partner

Last night he left sink on and the sink was already clogged, so water went everywhere and damaged downstairs unit and we are liable for the damage I just cannot live like this and don't care about him anymore But I don't want him to engage with others because he does not make sense when he talks He talks in riddles but I can usually figure out what he is trying to say

    Hi Eloise, while you protect him from engaging with others, your situation becomes more and more dire. If he rages to the landlord or the downstairs neighbors you will not have to be the one calling the police, and you would also have valuable witnesses to his behavior.

    Eloise, it is good to see your posts again, I thought of you this morning. It seems that just about any event becomes an issue with some of our PWD. I can appreciate your frustration!. Have you made a contact with the Alzheimer's Crisis Line or your local Alz Association? Or an attorney? I think you will find some support from one of these, and it is so helpful to have someone to offer solutions or suggestions. Best wishes!
