Find Care & Housing
I feel bad for you. Can you get home health services to come to your home every day? Is there anyone you know willing to help you, for instance sit with him while you are out of the home? If you can, that is great, but if not then you may have no other choice. If he keeps falling that is not good either. Do what is best for him (and you) and you will feel better as time goes on.

Oh, and the guilt thing? Please let that go.

Guilt is for when you've done something wrong, correct? What do you think you've done wrong? Getting your dear one professional care? Taking care of yourself?

These are not unreasonable actions. These are well thought out and caring actions. No guilt!!

My dear, your husband keeps falling, right? He had multiple medical issues that need medically qualified folks to monitor.

I'm going to suggest to you that if you keep trying to care for him alone, YOU will end up injured, or worse. Then where will he be?

Of course you're sad! This is a sad thing, being separated from the one you love, but it cant be helped. His conditions dictate his care needs, not what our hopes or dearest wishes.

Please work on getting him placed long term. Talk to YOUR doctor today about your deep sadness. You may need some meds to get you back on your happy, productive life path.
