    Blessed they give a caregiver allowance in the UK. Thanks for sharing. I’m dealing with ftd with my husband. He blew all our money too. Makes it hard. No carehelp either. Sounds like you have a good plan, and support. Good attitude you have! Im working on it! So hard! Godspeed to you! Bless all who are going thru this ! ❤

    What a sweet lady and courageous lady. My husband has FTD, your story is my story. I am a woman of Faith and my glass is always 1/2 full, but I am struggling . My husband is not as far along as Steve, but close. Some days are better than others but they are coming fewer and far between. I so admire you sweet lady, prayers for strength 🙏❤️🙏

    A great record of the decline with FTD. This poor lady needs a break and have better health herself. I hope she continues to get the help she needs.

      I have a husband of 64 years marriage and he has now had FTD for at least 12 years. I understand all this lady has said plus the tears and the disappearance of money, in fact the money he needs now for care. Because our entire family want him placed in care...but the expense could be far too much now. This is a nightmare for all of us who care for family member with FTD. This lady has such courage.

    Oh yes. I remember eventually keeping the car keys in my purse under my bed, after many situations, not the least of which when he flew across the country and got married for a week; the police called saying his wife was looking for him! But he could always answer to the day of the week, his age, etc (I’m not sure I could at that point), so no one thought he had a problem.

    This poor lady has been through so much. She's breathing like my Gram does when she needs her inhaler, I hope she's taking care of herself

    Thank you Elaine, by far the best video on FTD...my mum was recently diagnosed with Dementia, we are now going through all tests to determine which type...my mother seems to have a little bit of symptoms, from each type!☹️

    I do not know how you get through this
    . My husband had Lewy Body dementia but because of so many health problems he stopped walking and I had control of money. He passed away in December.
