Hi. I am 72 I have myasthenia gravis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, breast cancer survivor. My husband of 54 years is in a alzheimer facility , he is not mobile at all. It all happened so suddenly . Started in November 2022. I am by myself my daughter is in alaska we just moved here July of 2022 so I know no one. Have no relatives here have one good friend i am so anxious I get sick and vomit I am constantly over thinking. So afraid here miss him so much. I have to take some new meds and I am afraid to take them fearful of being allergic or something happening to me. I take methotrexate a chemo drug for my autoimmune diseases so my immunity is compromised. Today I went to urgent care found out I have oral thrush from antibiotics I took. They gave me a rinse and amvsupposed to swallow it after I am afraid to I fear something bad happening . It is terrible to be this bad over that. But I worry constantly about my husband just so overwhelmed and scared. Please help me with your advice.

I am so sorry Nervousnancy, it sounds like you have been through everything! Maybe you can take strength from having been through so much and knowing that you will find a way? I would also bet you can find local support groups for a lot of that, or maybe start one for family of those that have family members in the alzheimers facility? I know that you can find peace, it is just a matter of finding the right path. I wish you strength and hope.
