What to do when you get so tired you can’t take another step. Help

When you hit that wall, please give yourself permission to do the bare minimum for one day and let the non-essential chores go.
Also, reach out to your family, friends, or a local support group to ask for even a few hours of help so you can rest. You cannot pour from an empty cup, and finding a moment to breathe is necessary for both of you.

Hi @lovetony1989
I take care of my husband who has Alzheimer's. He outweighs me by 50 lbs., but he does not need much physical support at this stage.
I know that if I go down, he goes down, so I try to take as much care of myself as I can.
I need a shoulder replacement, but cannot get it done because the recovery is too long. He doesn't accept strangers in our home..
Do you have a local Office of Aging? There may be support services available. It's worth exploring.

Hire help!! Your own health needs it!
Last year my husband took care of his parents and we DID hire help but he was still there a lot, I was too but toward the end it was more him and the CNA we hired (I had been the driver and shopper for years for them)
Hospice got involved too near the end.
All this to say that 6 months later my husband got diagnosed with stage 4 cancer!! Of course I don't know if the stress of it all caused it, but stress does terrible things to the body.
(He's ok for now btw, you wouldn't know he has cancer by looking at him- other than hair loss from chemo, which is now growing back but GREY!)
you have to take care of yourself!
I'm losing my mind and it's just residual stress from my in-laws dying, my husband's diagnosis and then my mom dying too shortly after. We had 3 deaths within 7 months! I don't need a 4th any time soon!
Relax and try to do something you enjoy! I sew/quilt and often just sit with headphones and listen to an audiobook to keep my mind from THINKING!
