- Remember how I told you all that my in law's were this weekend and that my husband was/is depressed lately? Well, what I didn't tell you is that they are all alcoholics, MIL, SIL, BIL. They drank at least 20 beers each in 2 days plus two large...
- I'm having a down moment, feeling a little depressed about this whole situation. I know it will pass but I thought if I wrote about it I might feel better. My in laws were here this week, MIL, SIL and BIL. They all know about my husband and try to...
- My husband has been taking Xanex for a long time, started with his PTSD 10 years ago but in the last week I think I am noticing it isn't effective anymore. I think I will contact his doctor for a new suggestion. It used to be that I could give him a...
- My MIL, SIl and BIL are visiting, they come with their RV and cook their meals, sleep in their own beds so the impact on me is minimal, but I did notice that my husband is in better spirits, tries talking more and even laughs. So for all you family...
- Today I went out for 3 hours and had lunch with lady friends and my husband was with his caregiver, she took him out to lunch too, which he likes to do. But when I come home he is extra grumpy, moody, says 'he may as well die' etc. I almost feel...
- We have been posting a little about speaking and I have noticed how my husband doesn't talk much anymore and he struggles to finish a sentence, uses the wrong word etc. When we were driving to the store yesterday the thought hit me, I used to...
- My husband just told me this:"I hope you don't think I'm weird but every night before I go to sleep in bed there is a woman who comes and she is like a ghost, she's very beautiful and she calms me down. You kind of look like her."I am trying to see...
- Well, I'm up early today because I just finished washing skunk off my Boxer, Baby! Yup, she was at it again, this is the one who killed my chicken and know she has added skunk. The smell is everywhere. I have candles burning, etc. I've searched on...
- Something that I really miss is being able to have conversations about the kids with my husband. When there are problems I have to figure it out and handle it on my own and sometimes even hide it from him or he gets too upset. I'm not talking about,...
- well, it happened, he pooped in the hallway last night, he has been peeing in inappropriate places for a few months now, but this is the first time he has done this, sigh.
- it's been a little quiet on this and the dementia board, everyone doing ok? Just hanging in there?Yesterday my husband said he wanted to have a job again could I think of any reason why he couldn't work, :), well, I could think of a million. I just...
- My husband asked me to write a letter to his daughters, so I did. He is angry that they don't contact him and that they are mean to me so he told them so in his letter. I typed it exactly like he said it to me, wrong words, wrong grammar,...
- Does your loved talk about dying, a lot? Mine does at least once a day he says something like, "I don't have much time left." "We need to make sure everything is in order for you after I'm gone." "I won't be here much longer."I always dismiss him...
- This morning my sister in law called just to say hi. She and her brother, my husband, have always been very close. Anyway, we were having a nice quiet morning, there was no stress in the house and then while he was talking to her he said, "I have to...
- Today is one of those days when I feel like a prisoner, I feel like I would like to go somewhere or do something by myself, alone (hardly remember what alone feels like anymore). Nothing urgent but I just want to be alone for a bit.
