Something stuck out to me in your post Rose, you said he asks you 7 times a day how you're feeling? Does he ask you that many times because he senses how you feel? Why do you think he isn't listening to you? Lots of men have a very hard time expressing their actual thoughts and feelings, is he that type? I'm sure he can't be totally clueless as to how much you're helping. Maybe he has difficulty expressing appreciative emotions? Maybe you can find a caregiver for him with his VA services and not have to deal with it anymore.
