This is a kind of a written sob. On the three days John doesn't go to daycare I dread the delusions which will start up in the afternoons.
Religious mania - he can't eat as he must go to Communion at Mass ( rarely went to communion and hasn't been capable of going to mass for over a year).
Work - very important job to be done and needs to get there if he can only locate his car
(Retired twenty years ago)
Brothers - all six are dead but he has to meet one or more at a pub which is usually one that got knocked down forty years ago or more
And so it goes on.
I start to feel incandescent as this nonsense goes on. I walk miles with him. I take him to Places I think will interest him but ultimately I am 72 and want a life that feels normal. On the days he is in care I have begun to have a taste of what that life could be.
I have been dieting successfully for the last couple of months but today I had two large glass of red with my dinner and a handful of chocolate bought for the kids at Halloween. This is how carers go astray! What to do? My husband is a nice person but how much more of this rubbish can anyone take.
