What a sad story.
Didn't she get Medicare after she got SSD?

She could have, I suppose, but I think she always had better coverage (dental, for example) under my insurance instead of under Medicare.

TY so much Trobesmom! I am sure I will do just that. I find myself feeling very sad, seeing my husband's health decline. I also get very frustrated at times, as he attempts to do things that are too much of a strain and he then collapses.

So good to know others may have particular suggestions about coping skills to employ or ways to encourage new behaviors. A forum can be a safe place to get that kind of help and support.
