DEAR ABBY: I have had an older man as a roommate for two months now. He’s very kind and intelligent. He also has dementia. I didn’t realize it when he moved in. He’s estranged from his family, although I know of a few people he does talk to on the phone.
DEAR UNEQUIPPED: Initiating a conversation with your roommate about your concerns is critical, particularly while he is in EARLY stages of dementia. Be open and honest about your capabilities and find out what his plans are for long-term care as his dementia progresses. Ask if his friends or family know about his dementia and if they are part of his care team.
