My husband has many health issues; he does not read or write well, so I will read for him. We have health services to come to our home. I feel like he does not make decisions of his own. I try not to give him answers. I feel so overwhelmed. We have no money for entertainment and his diet has to be carb controlled, so cooking and shopping are not easy. I just wish he was more responsible and that I could have some free time.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
