Has anyone else been essentially abandoned by their spouse and adult children since being diagnosed?
He didn't sign up for that I disagree I remember the part through sickness or health till death do us part
The situations being described breaks my heart! Family should be stepping up during this time. Please reach out to the community. You are not alone!
I can't imagine the hell that is PD and to add to this the lack of family support. Consider yourselves brave, strong and resilient. You are modeling for your children who will take in these qualities, even if it's not happening yet.
Robert I am sorry too. It is really difficult to wrap my head around someone doing that to you when you need them the most. My husband is not a perfect caregiver but he is loyal and he advocates for me and he will always be there for me even if he isn't great with the "Tea and Sympathy" part of it. He still loves me. I hope you find someone who can really advocate for you. I'm glad your children are taking you in and I hope they can learn how to care for you properly. My husband is learning.:-)
Hi Robert,
I am so sorry.
But, don't give up; you have your children and tomorrow is another day and a new hope.
Be strong
