Jocelyn, thank you for sharing your experiences with us. You deserve so much credit for working on providing a compassionate and caring environment for your husband. Life is so unpredictable!
Thank you Jocelyn for sharing your story, l like how you have adapted and just keep moving forward. An looking after you is so important, and washing your hands and put them away will hurt you more in the end, people don't see that. God bless you. An thank you doctor for caring.🙏
I have a similar situation in that my dad has vascular demetia and multiple demetia and I have experieced some of the things you have. So thanks for sharing. Its difficult but you have made sure your'e not alone Great job.
Incredible interview Jocelyn! Wow! Such amazing windows we’re flying open while you discussed your journey. I was listening and TAKING NOTES & watching again because each time I learned another new option. Thank you for being willing to share! The VERY PRACTICAL SPECIFIC ideas on ways that you do your “self care” make me energized. I’ve recently discovered the “holding space” and have been practicing the last few months. Powerful to have another resource to educate myself and GROW. It seemed that I’d never have 5 min to myself at the earliest stages of the journey. Your lessons are going to be unique at time because, as you said - Nobody has EXACTLY the same scenario. We all need support though! Such a blessing to hear and I’m filled with gratitude. Thank you to Dr Natali for your efforts to help us open up! Hugs to all!
Thanks for sharing and being so positive. After 3 years my wife now knows what she has. It was hard to do this without her knowing. But now she knows, it’s very miserable and it’s always my fault. Every stage has its own challenges I hated to quit my job but I’m adjusting to full time care giving. Good luck in your journey.
Thank you for sharing your story and the tips you gave to care for yourself as well as taking care of your husband the way he deserves. I learned many things from the time you took to help us. I am so sorry to hear about the way medical providers treated and dismissed issues or didn't even explain them before acting. I am very impressed with the ways you are taking care of yourself and helping others too. Your horses and relatives are so important. This is a difficult journey bit you have taken the reins and are doing wonders. Good luck.

Just take one day at a time..Try not to think about the future.That is what I did for 5 years until my husband died.
I have similar experience. And it is so horrible
I think this wife has some denial of her husband’s condition and how serious it was before she had to accept things.
