I am right there with you both with my husband still in MCI stage of Alzheimer’s - but progressing.
I think that is what I would find to be the most help right now is just having an ongoing relationship (chat/walk/email exchange) with someone else who is going through the same thing and with little family support.
If you live close by, I’ll put the coffee on

Hello,
My husband has cancer but as a sole caregiver, without family or friends for support, l'd appreciate some contacts too so if you care to include me l'd like that🦉😉

We are full time RVers. We are now in Northern California heading north. I was uncertain about continuing our lifestyle (we’ve been doing this for 5 years), but my husband wanted to continue our journeys. I think it helps that we are outdoors everyday and pretend that everything is normal. We have to pick up his meds at a FedEx delivery store and get his blood work done at Quest.
My mom had dementia and lived with us for 7 years. It was hard juggling work, kids etc. This was in the late 90’s when there was little help for caregivers. Thanks for the invite - wish we could meet😊
