My husband, diagnosed with mild cognitive disorder 3 years ago been eating a lot 3 meals + snacks in between then takes long naps.

Dr. knows I cook/prepare his favorite foods and snacks with the help of our caregiver wh hailed from the same province (as mine) My 92 year old husband ,married for 65 years craves/eats foods we have shared together thru the years. Caregiver and I use positive Behavior Modification techniques and had used sing-songs , His preoccupation and interest are youTube programs/videos (news, videos on aging, etc).I am a retired Mental HealthRN trying to practice my learned/practiced skills.

Life is always easygoing with MCI at first. Until the MCI progresses to full blown dementia where they can't read news articles anymore, only want to eat sweets, become surly and argumentative, incontinent and wander outside. Enjoy your husband while hes still cooperative and amenable to "behavior modification techniques."

Bragging or complaining?
I don't see the problem.
Sounds like life is good.
