He's just started to not beable to walk from one room to another. I put him in the wheelchair at times now. I know he's only going to continue deteriorating. I've been caring for him for over 3 years almost full time. Lately, I'm just falling apart inside. I'm starting to wish I was dying too.

Are you getting help from a pdoc and a therapist? You know how they say you have to put the oxygen mask on first in the airplane? You need to be gentle with yourself and take good care of you so you'll be able to take care of him. I am so, so sorry you're going through it. It sounds heartbreaking. You are not alone. You have a lot of support on this forum. Thinking of you....
