I understand your concern for the dementia and your husband. When I got my LVAD I did not have any problem with dementia but I did find a problem with my memory. They said it would be a little bit because the heart was disturbed.

Definitely make the Dr. aware of this but it should get better 

Prayers to your husband and yourself.

Yes ,I am and at time I get so frustrated!! But I have to be patient with my husband. It's not his fault. And I will always try to to be patient, loving and kind. We are going g thru so much, but we will always be there for each other. Doctors can only do so much.
