I'm new to this I've just joined today. I have feelings of guilt as I had to put my husband in a nursing home last week. I feel as though I've let him down but I did tend to him since he was diagnosed with dementia since Februay of 2009. I had him home with me and believe me it was just him and I. I have feelings like I've deserted my best friend, companion and my husband. I cry many days. It's very hard when he's from the United Kingdom and I'm from America. I have no family here and he has a son which very seldom comes around. We've only been married 3 and a half years. I go see him daily as I can't go without him. I hate to see how depressed he looks when I have to leave after his tea. Could someone please help me?
