Ashley was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in May of 2024

Ashley has had a bad fall and broke his hip and femur on Saturday.
Surgery was delayed until today. A 3 hour operation and he is in recovery so doped up he knows nothing.
This was his 4th hip replacement and there is no knowing how he will handle this mentally.
For the past year he has been very down and in a lot of pain with other issues.
His wife, though stoic, is starting to have health issues and has been his carer since his diagnosis in May of 2024.

Ashley is still in hospital. He is in the dementia ward. Hopefully he will have some rehab so he can go home.
Has been in hospital for 17 days now.
@Gusman Sadly, sometimes another medical incident can trigger a decline..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Gail did not sound hopeful when I spoke to her this morning. Sad situation.
@Gusman Having been through it myself, my only advice is to be supportive and offer help where you can..Facing a harsh reality can be confronting..😷
