My husband has dementia and other mental health issue he is in the VA hospital mental ward. Every since he keeps asking for his lawyer they want me to come and get him he is Vera Leo and at times physical abusive. They say I can’t take care of him and I don’t want to anymore. He has choked one of the nurse at the VA hospital they know he is aggressive. I have quit my job to take care of him but I realize I can’t. They say they are going to release him. I keep telling them I am not picking him up or staying in home with him. What recourse do I have in protecting my family and him too?
I'm very sorry to hear about your husband's condition. Have you tried talking to a social worker? I hope they can connect you with more options and resources in the community.
