I am right there with you in every aspect of this post - hating to lose my sweet husband by degrees, missing his old self, missing being a partner, rather than a caretaker, hating the disease, praying for a cure. Only, I HAD to stop working five years ahead of time, due to a surgery that left him much worse, and unable to be left alone - now having to pay for individual insurance, no longer paying into pension, etc...oh well, you gotta do what you gotta do, and pray - if you can still believe - for things to work out o.k.
Thoughts and prayers,
