He has MSA which is multiple symptom atrophy and a form of Parkinson’s. I cared for him a year at home and it got very hard to do. He is 6 foot tall and I an 5 ft 3. He has list his ability to speak, he can not walk, and he had clumsy hand syndrome. Even though I know he needs to be there it makes me sad.
And that is exactly what you did....what was best for you both. And I say kudos to you that you understand that you matter too in this equation.
Caregivers have a 63% higher mortality rate than non caregivers, so now it's time to take care of yourself so you can be the best wife and advocate for your dear husband on this new journey you're on with him.
May God bless you and keep you both.
Best of luck to you.
Fingers crossed for a quieter early morning.
