Approaching year fifteen now as my husband’s full time caregiver. I don’t think about our old life much any longer. I just get through each day with no real expectations except to get through. I vaguely recall our old life now and my former brilliant and compassionate husband. I have learned to go from despair to anger and even rage at this predicament. Now I can truly say I have adapted and accept whatever the disease throws our way. I can even laugh at some of the absurdity this strange set of circumstances present. It’s the only way to survive a seemingly life sentence.

@djgb Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! I’m glad you found this discussion group and hope that you will jump right in! Do you have any help from his doctor’s office? I’m thinking of nurses or nurse aides.
