[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How old is DH and can he still work or is he retired? [/quote] OP here, DH is in his early 40s. I honestly don’t know how long he will be able work. Another stressor is trying to plan to support my family on one income. We are not DCUM wealthy and need dual incomes to get by. I was not expecting these types of health/cognitive issues until much later in life. What is most challenging is trying to juggle parenting with his health issues and care giving. I appreciate the input so far. Friends and family have been supportive with the kids and offering help. What’s daunting is looking into the future and realizing that this isn’t a phase that will pass. If anything this is only the beginning and it will only get harder as his symptoms and health declines over time.[/quote]
