My wife and I are still married, but I've become her caregiver after four (or more) serious health setbacks that spanned about 15 years, the most recent of which had her in hospice during the pandemic. But she recovered.

I work full time. We have very little support unless we pay for it. But with so many medical expenses, we can't afford more than about 10 hours of care per week. We don't go on vacation and just about manage to eat and keep out of debt. The house and cars are deteriorating. I'm just living day-by-day, numb to most of it. I'm most sad for our adult daughter, who didn't get the attention or support she needed while growing up.
