Yes, I have been taking on more and more. Pretty much everything now since dx 3 years ago. It’s exhausting. I also try to keep the peace daily as he gets agitated with the “small stuff” and needs to have me near by 24/7. We’ve been going to Cognitive Therapy together for about 6 weeks since he thinks this is the magic doorway to get his drivers license reinstated.
I’ve noticed incremental decline in him in the last month and believe all of these efforts are staving off the inevitable. I feel that I have so much on my plate that I’m not as sharp as I used to be, like I should be tested as well. It’s taking a toll, as you all know. I now know how the frog felt when put in a pot of cold water and placed on the stove.
