My husband had his Alzheimer’s confirmed last year and I am feeling angry/annoyed about it.
Let me explain, just before we married over 48 years ago my husband was diagnosed with Diabetes type 1 insulin dependent and since then things have just gotten worse. He has always struggled with his sugar control having many hypo’s during this time and it’s always been left up to me to sort him out. He has high and low blood pressure which makes him dizzy, prostate problems, a Heart Attack almost two years ago and now this! I feel like it’s my ongoing prison sentence.
You are probably thinking that I’m an awful person. I try to help others putting my personal problems to one side. I also have a disabled son who continues to worry me as he now has spinal stenosis and a grandson of two who has sagittal craniosynotosis and awaiting surgery at any time now.
My main concern is the battle I have coming my way as he already gets frustrated because he can’t always remember how to do things and doesn’t want me to get people in to do the jobs because they won’t do it how he wants; he’s always been a perfectionist. Therefore he is starting jobs and I’m having to help or even complete them. Is there anyone else out there who can share their knowledge and wisdom to help me. Thank you
