Is there anyone out there who is in the same position as me?
My husband has fronto-temporal dementia and is now in care.
I work part-time and visit him three times a week. Although I have some good friends (couples) I feel as though I "don't belong" as three is an odd number. Although I still have a husband, at the same time I no longer have him. I feel as though I have been through some kind of bereavement and now need to move on and have some kind of new life. I am 58 and I enjoy the countryside, seaside and the galleries, theatres and shops of London.
I would like to correspond or meet anyone who feels that they can empathise with my situation.
