Divorcing a spouse is never simple. When your partner has early dementia, the emotional, legal, and practical challenges multiply. You may feel torn between loyalty, grief, and the need to protect your own future. This book is your steady guide through that difficult terrain—written with empathy and candor for readers in their fifties, sixties, and beyond who are navigating the end of a long marriage shadowed by cognitive decline. You will learn how to assess legal capacity, gather essential medical documentation, and work with a solicitor who understands dementia. You will find clear explanations of powers of attorney, guardianship, and pension division, alongside honest conversations about guilt, adult children, and the slow process of letting go. Every chapter respects that you are still a partner, not a villain—and that your spouse deserves dignity even as you disentangle your lives. Practical checklists, real-world examples, and guidance on self-care help you move forward without losing yourself. Whether you are just beginning to wonder or already filing papers, this book meets you where you are. Part of The Later-Life Divorce Library.
