I also am a caregiver to my LC spouse. It is a very difficult job -- maybe one of the hardest. We need to keep them going, keep them fighting, keep them positive with hope. In order to do that, we must first take care of ourselves -- that means eating right, exercising, taking time for oneself, having someone to talk with on a regular basis. It was once explained to me like the heart -- it feeds itself with blood before it pumps it to the rest of the body. If it didn't do this, it would eventually weaken and not be able to perform its function. You must take care of yourself. You can certainly vent here and get support, but you need someone you can physically reach out to, to talk with besides your hubby. In order to have time also for yourself, you will have to be willing to ask others for help -- let them do things for you and your husband. We have been showered with help from friends, neighbors and church members -- because we encouraged them to do so. I hope you will take this to heart. We are all with you here. Blessings. Don
