Today I watched my wife walking around the garden picking up wet leaves still in her PJs and finally understood that she’s lost to me forever now,
The intelligent practical girl I married has morphed into something I don’t recognise, an accountant that no longer understands the basic workings of our financial affairs,
a great cook who can no longer make the simplest meal, who wanders around the house with £40 in her bra because someone might steal it, but still refuses to get help,
This morning I just couldn’t take it anymore and broke down and I can’t speak to her about why, because she thinks there’s nothing wrong and doesn’t understand, I’ve had to be on my own to try to recover myself,
It’s breaking my spirit along with my heart.
