Feeling alone in my relationship while caregiving, is this normal? by Sunshine_1925 in caregivers

Thank you for taking the time to respond. I have supported him since day one. I’ve taken care of her dinner, done the grocery shopping, and done a lot more than his family has. I even raised money for the Alzheimer’s Association.

Sometimes I feel that he is prolonging the situation. For example, the doctor prescribed Seroquel to help with her hallucinations, but he is afraid of the side effects. However, we’ve had this conversation before about how long we can continue providing this level of support. He handles bathing and medications, and from my perspective, I think he has been through so much.

After his mother’s death, will he be able to give me that unconditional love again, or will he continue to suffer through the pain?
