I forgot to mention a very important help for you and your husband. It’s called Humor, and laughing, and being silly like little children. This definitely helps us to feel connected to each other and take away some tension and sadness you both feel. It really has helped our relationship as caregiver and patient to just laugh and be happy, even for a little while. We both deserve some happiness.

Good thing to mention, my wife and I don't laugh much anymore. She won't go to movies, And she watches a lot of old sitcoms. The Seinfeld episodes are pretty funny, but Friends and most others seem tiresome with irritating laugh tracks. My former wittiness and sense of humor are fading..
