It’s a known issue that being on MM treatment can cause forgetfulness and brain fog. I’ve documented my own struggles with this side effect in a post on here.

Hi Judy - I'm sorry this is happening. This must be so difficult.
Call in the calvary - reach out to your husband's care team and ask for help. If there is someone who can come be with you - friend or family - reach out. Phone calls are good too. You need support through this too. May the Lord bless you and keep you, and make His Face to shine upon you, and grant you his peace. Blessings. ♥️
