    I would love to talk to my husband but sadly he doesn’t know who I am. He thinks he is in a Golf and Country club. He is totally lacking in capacity at all times and is totally detached from reality for the time being.

    Do you have any sort of business insurance that might cover him being
    ill?
    What a horrible situation to be in,  Some people do make a very quick recovery, at least enough to regain capacity in some areas unfortunately it’s just going to be wait-and-see. 

    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    I honestly don’t know what insurance he has and I don’t have access to his emails.
