@slysi I am no longer a practicing catholic but i whole heartedly believe in what you are saying about how God has given us the ability to handle the situation of taking care of a loved one during this very difficult time of our lives. I keep asking WHY ME also, and i figure it's because I CAN do it and HE knows it also. So i just do my best....as hard as it is.
My husband and I are young....62 and 58. He was diagnosed 2 years ago and it's been a rough journey...especially since his aphasia has progressed faster than I thought it would. He has a tough time expressing himself in ways that I can understand but somehow we get thru it. For better or worse and in sickness and in health has really hit home but I wouldn't trade the love of my life for anything. And yes, I am blessed to help him also!
Prayers and hugs to both of you
Thank you for your caring response. We are religious and I pray for him every day. I also ask for guidance in what I do for my husband.
