I have been so fortunate that my dh is strong and in relatively good health. He works out at the gym several times a week and that has helped him a lot. I wish I could do that but some days walking to the mailbox is exhausting!
Not a good situation to be in. when I was working,I had home health clients in similar situations.It was tough sometimes.
This just proves to me, there really is always someone in a worse situation then we are. My heart goes out to you. I am sure you have both had to develop a lot of coping skills over the years.

I wish you a good nights sleep,

Ditter
