@billiekip You sound so sad. Do you have any plans that let you leave the house for a short time. Just to do what you want! Think up some things for yourself and then do them. Like you said, ‘you matter’. Does the family come to visit? Can you take time off while they are there or do you enjoy their visits? What is one thing that you could do that would make every day nicer?

Hi, sometimes I am sad, but it's becoming more normal and I do have support and respite. I am not depressed and do have me time.
These strategies don't make it any easier when you see your spouse slipping away.
Thanks.
