As some of you may know my wife has Alzheimer’s and it has been a long 13-1/2 year journey. On the 28th of December of 2023 she fell and fractured her hip so we started 2024 off in the hospital. Well from that point on she never walked again, her legs retracted to a bent position, she had to be hand fed, and she very seldom spoke. We went onto hospice at this point.
When I was feeding her on March 31st she started pocketing her food so I stopped feeding her so she wouldn’t aspirate. Then on April 1st when I was dressing her I screwed up! I turned to get something and she fell off of the bed and fractured her arm. This has caused the start of the end as she stopped eating and drinking. I am having to watch her body slowly break down and it is killing me that there is nothing I can do. I have told her it is ok to go and asked the Lord to let her come home. If you would please keep my wife Linda in your prayers I would appreciate it.
Thank you.

May the Lord be with you and your wife. Just lost my wife to Alzheimer's in November after 5 years. So much of your story sounds familiar.

Prayer said for both of you.
Several friends who have gone thru this say it's like having to lose them twice.
Family is everything!
Life is precious. We don’t have forever. We have now. This moment. We can choose to love our lives now.

Praying for you Lakhota. Hope you have family or friends that allow you to be out of the house for short spells. I’m seeing signs from my wife recently
