Be thankful he was in his mid 90s when it began. It is indeed heartbreaking.

I feel myself lucky that he has lived so long, and I have been able to live

Ya my MIL has had it for 5 years and is currently 68. Full blown alzheimers.

Never had to deal with Alzheimers

Great advice: don’t argue about stuff

My mom had it for a few years before she passed and this is what we eventually learned, as well. There's zero chance

You are blessed. Many dads, including my own, were gone long before age 70
