What you describe in this case study is Alzheimer's

See BBC information site

Alzheimer's Society

It would be better to get the involvement of these profesionals, and one would hope the care home would be experienced in dealing with this.

If through palliative care, the spouse was experiencing a quality of life, is there need to do anything irrevocable?

How many diseases that are curable today, were death sentences several years ago?

If he was not suffering and happy in his world, it would be best to leave him alive, and use him as a case study to help raise money for this terrible disease.

If you wish to donate to the Alzheimer's society click here
