I know there are lonely moments in my life also when my husband doesn't seem to know me and his short-term memory makes time so frustrating for him and I. But I do try and live my daily life one day at a time and this works for me. My hubby is my soul mate and this gives me strength to keep being the main caregiver for as long as he needs me love him unconditionally as he such a good person.

I definitely understand your living one day at a time! Since my husband was diagnosed I have just taken each day as it comes and at the end of that day look for the blessings we had. Sometimes it is hard to find that blessing..Some people think I have a stoic attitude about his illness but it is more of a coping mechanism I think. I can't look at what we had and mourn the loss or think about what is to come and again mourn the loss, so I choose to live in the day and be glad for what we have. He was my rock through spinal surgery and cancer and I need to be his rock now. He is an amazing person who has touched me and my family with so much love and I intend to stay strong for him.
Thank you for sharing. Strength and peace.
Remi
