OH to go into care hopefully next week. Have now set wheels in motion. Social worker agreed he needs somewhere that can cope with challenging behaviour, so the one I had chosen... Now manager coming to do their assessment next week with a view to immediate admission. OH agreed to respite to social worker but she and home know this is likely to be permanent. Hitting home now that the husband I have slowly lost really will soon be living elsewhere. No doubts though it us time as over last 2 days he has: tried to drag me across car while driving by my hair, been so aggressive at daycare I had to come fetch him after less than an hour, then topped it off by insisting tonight he would get in the bath and getting stuck as I knew he would. Once again I had to lift him out. Add to this peeing all over bed and duvet and whacking me on the foot with his walking stick and it's hard not to feel relief now. But I will be very weepy all the same when it happens. Yes, I know I can still provide care in visits etc but nearly 50 years together now ending. Feeling sad...
