I’m caring for my husband who is 9 years older than I and not feeling well. I know how important it is to continue my own life so I hired a caregiver for 12 hours a week so I can go to line dancing once a week and go to the gym and also play a game called Mah Jongg twice weekly for 3 hours at a time.
I have wonderful friends who pick me up and drive me. I’m determined to “have a life” meaning staying active physically and socially. I am almost 86 but can’t allow myself to become depressed as I also have some physical problems. Hope this helps others who feel they are alone.
