HI, I'm a 1st timer. 2 sisters with MS. 1 already gone, pneumonia.

My twin sister has MS and dementia. Been caring for her for 13 years since her divorce. It has taken over me and my husbands lives. We are now 68 and I've got my own health problems. It's a real struggle especially when we lose caregivers, which just happened again. Seems like there is no good answer to this nightmare. Suggestions?

Hi @sunshinegirl it sounds like you have a lot going on. Super difficult. I am afraid I have no solution. The only thing I can say is try to find some time for yourself. Even if it 20 minutes in the bath. I don’t know what support is available for you all. I guess charities or speak to the GP. Hope you can find a way. 👍
