I don't think it's curable, just manageable. Being told your inevitable limitation may feel like a slow death of the identity you built up. I had such cases like that, independent people suddenly taking on the sick role, the recipient of care, the total opposite of being the provider, definitely not a good experience to take in initially.

It's difficult for sure. My dad loves to drive, and the last time he forced himself to drive, he ended up at the HCU for a week before being sent to the regular ward. On top of that, earlier this year he just lost his brother too. As a family, best I can do is being supportive though it's also not easy sometimes 😅
