My dear husband has been in a Care home since Jan.I have seen a deteriation in his condition as I am no longer allowed to hug or kiss him.He doesn't understand why I am no longer allowed in the home(I used to visit several times a week.We have been married for 52 years and it is very sad that I am not allowed to touch him.Surely there must be another way.
