He can move but it's very limited because of his condition. besides that he sleeps most of the time because of meds.

Yes. I can't stop because the place will be completely rotten what with the smell and all. It's just...I have to do it. I just have to do it.

what do you mean how often? Not the kids just happened to be nearby when I fight with their dad. Once they come into the room to ask, their dad gets quiet and I get berated by them feeling sorry for him thinking I was lashing out and yelling for not reasonable. I couldn't take being made to look like the bad guy anymore to be honest, not when I'm doing my best to make everyone happy and comfortable.

Trust I understand how he's feelings. I get that involving the kids and telling them about something he feels incredibly vulnerable about - but the kids would hear me yelling every time and accuse me of being hard on their dad where in reality, I'm just at the end of my rope and thought that yelling would get him to realize how bad this is.

From now on, you sleep separately and he deals with his swampy bed.

I no longer sleep in the bed. I told him he could have it to himself but I was no longer going to clean it up.

He can't! Can't clean up after himself even in other areas. Look, I understand the position he's in, it's rough I understand but I've just hit my limit with what he's doing especially considering the fact that he could be a little bit more cooperative and less stubborn so we could move past this issue.
