My poor DH has dementia, is nearly blind and is very unsteady on his feet and won't use a walker. He needs a lot of care.
I'm really lucky having family close by who are happy to help and I'm able to go out and have short breaks. He's also got 28 days a year respite care.
But its the day to day tediousness of it all thats getting me down. I've spent a lifetime nursing the elderly and i feel as tho i never retired! He is 87 and I'm 70 and I know that this decade is the last one I can expect to live a full n active life.
The family are very much against him going into full time care, even the respite care doesn't go down well. Am I being unreasonable?
