I have cried a lot too, but like you we work together every day to keep my husbands brain cells nourished. He also has a speech therapist twice a week and works out every day.
My husband also shows some micro vascular ischemia. He has had Reynauds - cold hands and feet for years.
I could relate so much to your post. How old is your husband? Mine is 76.

My husband is 80, almost 81. What is Reynauds, and what does it cause? My husband just started with cold hands and feet. They took him off of his statin and Plavix so worried there could be other problems from that. I have just settled into accepting what our life is now and loving each other on a different level so my anxiety is better. We are planning trips and discussing how we can handle such because he said yesterday he doesn’t know how many more we will be able to do…sad but true.
We now play music all the time as it seems to help him relax. God Bless you!!
