[quote=Anonymous]OP, regardless of the situation, this is stressful. I have a parent with advancing dementia who is local, as is my sibling, who is super supportive. And my parents have LTC insurance and it is still stressful. So no matter what the situation it is hard. Sounds like you feel angry at the situation and stressed out, but you don't want to take out on DH because you understand his reasons for doing what he is doing, and, probably, it is part of what you value about him. But the stress and strain on you is real. Can you get some time for therapy? Hire extra help to help you around the house? Get a sitter sometimes for your 5 year old to give you or your older kids some relief? This time will pass, hang in there, and find ways to take care of yourself and relieve some of the stress!
