Hello @mongerj I am sorry to read of what you are experiencing as a caregiver. I am Scott and I am glad to see you found Mayo Connect! This is a wonderful community of all kinds of individuals who have been thrust into the highly challenging role of caregiver, like yourself.
You write so well about the many emotional conflicts of caregiving for a loved one! As you describe, it is such a challening and demanding roller coaster to ride -- and one that is especially difficult to ride alone.
I know in my wife's situation I often wished there was more that I could do for her! You mention 'protocols that promise complete reversal'. I haven't heard of these. Can you share what they are?
Strength, courage, and peace!
