A palliative care agency? We are 70 something. I am running on empty. He can do nothing on his on without my help so I’m exhausted. No family/friends. Thx

Sadly resources are slim. Please consider contacting your local government aging office to ask your questions. Your local Alzheimer's Association is also a good resource. Take care.

I'm so sorry to hear that you are so worn out with things. I've been there and Bed time could not come quick enough some days. I have rest bite at the moment, So my sanity is returning. You must love your partner very much, and I'm sure you are stronger than you think you are? I hope you get some help soon.
Warm regards from the UK Cornwall

My husband has a Medicare Part D plan. Each year they perform a home visit (available for all on the plan, not because of my husband's AD) where they help us assess his situation and connect us with services, if needed. I can call them at any time if I feel something has changed enough to need an immediate in-home visit instead of waiting for the annual visit. If your husband has medical insurance, consider contacting them for assistance. I've learned the hard way insurance plans can have great benefits available but we have to seek them out. Hugs to you!
