Where's my wife?

Last night Toms dad said to Jean (his mum), 'where's my wife?' A clear sign that his dementia is deteriorating. He is 87 and is warm, well fed, comfortable and being looked after at home. Tom's doing a sterling job running them here and there, doing shopping for them, amongst a myriad of other things.
I've been to work today. I saw many interesting ladies, but I can't tell you any details..........................
