Just me awake then

[Bee.quilt]

OH asleep after nighty abuse for not wanting sex with unwashed, unshaved, unloving stranger. How long can I smile patiently and look after a bully I lost respect years before AD diagnosis?

Hi Bee.quilt:

Does he get any currently get any help. My husband was always unshaven, never had a shower, never changed his clothes. He now has PSW's come in 5 days a week to clean him up, give him a shower and he loves it it's someone for him to talk to other than me and they are great with him (trained professionals). Might your husband enjoy this. My husband loves being pampered, it's a win/win situation for both of us.
