I do have experience caring for a loved one with dementia, and it. is. HORRIFIC! They're there but they're not, and you have to tell yourself constantly that what you see in their words & actions is not them. That can be tricky because they look & sound the same but their mind is altered. At least now some of his more recent comments are put into perspective! I know he's grumbled all these years about his title and position but he has been saying things in public that shocked me (not that he felt that way, but that he would look into a camera & say them). <br /><br />Now I wonder whether they'll continue with the altered burial plans or revert back and say he wasn't in his right mind & would want to be with his wife. <br /><br />Here's hoping they all get the peace & comfort they need. Royal or not, this is going to be a very difficult journey, likely made worse by the publicity. In the end we're all just human and unfortunately this is one of those times when money & status mean nothing.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05231707322138549807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8762674434623075554.post-48776746485922888562017-09-07T00:13:47.847-04:002017-09-07T00:13:47.847-04:00I am so sad to read this, even though I suspected ...I am so sad to read this, even though I suspected as much.

The news is terribly sad but finally explains behavior that has to have been distressing for all who know and love him.
