Dealing with generation gap as my spouse and I age

I can relate. My husband is 73, I just turned 73. He was diagnosed with a mild cognitive impairment in 2019 & is seeing a cognitive neurologist. The neurologist thinks he’s remaining stable but I’m still challenged by his memory deficits & problems using anything computerized. It’s always up to me to troubleshoot those programs. The stress of it all has worn me to a frazzle, I’m sick more than I’m well, & just want to be alone. I’m bothered that he does not remember many of the things we saw & did in our earlier life. Other than the therapist I talk to twice a week, I have no one. My son, brother, & one of my best friends are out of state. My other best friend works full time. Life just sort of sucks right now. I hear you.
