Yes, very common! My husband doesn't even realize that I do make most of the decisions. He used to plan all of our vacations for example and now he won't even think about when to go let alone where! I have to keep after him to get things done. He is content to sit in front of the TV!

Pat has major problems with the in ability to make decisions. Has no short term or long term memory problems. Processing is slow and if he doesn't build up anxiety, he does ok. If anxiety builds he just wants to quit the thought process. (Mo)

Hi Amanda, grocery shopping is a disaster for me. Bart loves to go but it takes 2 hours or more. If he leaves walking with me I then have to search the store for him

I think it is very common. When I was in the hospital two years ago n in a coma my husband wasn't comprehending anything the doctors said. Nor could he make decisions. He put our daughter n son in charge
