Hi Kindred,
Yes I know what you mean. I care for mum, and it dominates my life, and must be much more so for those of you caring for your OH. Whenever I speak to my sister on the phone, or we meet up, our conversation now revolves around mum, what we need to do for her, what will happen in the future. When I see friends or old work colleagues they too, invariably start a conversation with "How's your mum?" It takes that effort to stir the conversation around to other things. You're such a positive person that others hopefully will pick up on this and realise that, as much as you adore and care for Keith, you have other things to offer too. Xx
