Posting here is helping me keep track of my thinking.
I appreciate anyone feeling some empathy for me. It's not that I'm looking for guests to a pity party. I'm trying to come up with a plan that I can believe on.

Sure thing. Everyone needs someone to talk to.
I find "pity" tends to be such a loaded word for so many people. It can be a fine line. I certainly don't want to wallow in feeling sorry for myself, but I also recognize the need to cut myself some slack at times and trying to show myself some compassion. I'm still working on that.
It sounds like you cope pretty well, all things considered. I hope things turn around sooner rather than later.

Thanks, I'm sure it will, or soon thereafter. It doesn't feel serious -- just meh, and a lot of "I'm sorry, what was the question again?"

Yes, I think it's important for them to realize that. Both for the load it places on you, and the effect it will have on him.
Best of luck.
