I am also Power of Attorney for my ex-partner. I visit him every day and stay until he goes to bed. I shop for him, cook, look after all his financial affairs and his housekeeping, cleaning, laundry, personal care and house and garden maintenance. I do not drive and live thirty minutes walk away from him. He is fairly okay in the mornings, but suffers from sundowning effect. I admit get depressed and extremely tired due to lack of sleep. I have had to virtually abandon my own lifestyle -holidays, hobbies and travel etc. But I know that I am only one of thousands of people having to cope in similar situations. Many are worse off.
