I struggled for over 5 years has my husband gradually succumbed to Alzhiemers. I had no help from any authorities? Last August I arranged for me to have respite for 2 weeks at £5000 plus monthly fee. My husband deteriorated whilst residing in residential care-it was then impossible for me to look after him at home. We are still paying over £5000 a month for his care. Although he cannot be cared for at home we have been refused any funding. He is inlcontanent, he has to be helped to wash and dress, cry’s 3-4 times a week, has trouble using cutlery and eating, his feet are very swollen and his speech is also affected. This illness is life limiting and terminal but the NHS or government are not listening? I rest my case
