My spouse is in the early stages of dementia but is declining rapidly. He refuses to let family members stay with him and insists that he has to go where I go - he also needs some mental stimulation to help him with his memory problems which are getting worse as he becomes more dependent on me for everything.

Cloud9, can't you talk him into a fishing trip or golf weekend with someone? Personally, I think a week away for you and ONLY YOU would save your life.

Get some advice from his doctor and the local chapter of the Alzheimer's Association.
