Aw, thank you.
I do have another person, the primary caregiver, also a family member. We usually handle the "heavy lifting" tasks together. She doesn't seem to be as affected by this as I am, we've talked about and she knows it's gotten harder for me. It's difficult to hold conversations while we're working, though, because we have to focus on the tasks we're doing - communicating while we're working.
