Just do everything with him

We have been scratching our head to figure out how can we get him doing something, anything, as long as we can keep his brain working. We worried that if he is just sitting on the sofa fantasizing, day dreaming and doing nothing, the deterioration speed will be quicken. We just hope that he can maintain the current situation, its fine to us and we can't imagine if he would become a soulless living, forgetting all his friends and families and unable to control his urination.

He doesn't like to be alone, so whatever we ask him to do, he will ask for company and getting upset if we force him. But last night i found that if there is a company, he is willing to do, like asking him to sweep the floor, he refuses every single time to do it on his own ( but his work is totally unreliable, we just want to keep him working and at least use his brain). So I handed him a broom and one for myself and he was just sweeping with me, and we just can't expect him to clean up the floor, just at least he is doing something. 

Another example is washing car, just throw him a cloth and wash together, and the thing he is doing doesn't need a lot of memory like clean the dirt right in front of his eyes, he can focus on it and complete it.

The golden rule is, He must keep using his brain.
