Myself and my SO are helping him and his wife deal with it. We moved into a shared home and we’re all here for whatever he needs.
We moved in well in advance of him losing full vision so he can learn the layout of the house visually and get to the point of being able to navigate the house with his eyes closed.
We put in Google home devices all over so we can use announcements/paging to call out if he needs help. More people in the house means more people home more often, so there’s a better chance someone is nearby to help when help is needed.
It wasn’t cheap to buy a house when we did, but we’re doing ok. We have a plan.
