I had to take care of my mother during her last stages of dementia. As her condition became worsened I had to spend more time with her. Due to finances my brother and I had to provide her between us and home health aides. The more I had to stay the more if an attitude my husband got. It was horrible.
To me it is an eye opener for when one of us becomes ill as to how will our spouse/sig other take care of us.
