[quote=Anonymous]OP back. Also, my MIL’s eyes. It’s sad, but even in photos there’s just no glimmer or liveliness - more of a vacant look in her eyes. She looks very tired (and I’m certain she’s not sleeping well). My FIL is hung up on next steps and apparently wracked with indecision. He was told that further testing is needed (a spinal tap!) to make a more complete diagnosis and to get into studies (!) and possibly get the right meds prescribed. So, his new excuse is he doesn’t want MIL to be subjected to such procedures and is unsure if a specific diagnosis is going to help. It’s been almost a year since MIL was diagnosed with significant cognitive decline. Seems like it’s a wait and see/ignore/pretend everything’s fine. I’m worried about my FIL and what the caretaking will do to his health. I’m aware of the flawed study about amyloid plaques. So we’re all going in circles and that part is frustrating. [/quote]
