Don’t know anyone more deserving than my wife of 46 years, Frankie. 24/7 care for 6+ months. Cooking cleaning showering me daily taking me to veterans medical appointments. Lived more than expected by 3 years now.

Having been on both sides of this disease, caregiver to my mom and as a long time patient, I can say that it’s much harder to be the caregiver. Bless your wife and every other caregiver. Consider nominating her for the Go2 Caregiver award. She’s earned the recognition.

Thank you, dear wife, for caring for your husband. And being a wife of a veteran or. Veteran yourself! Thank you!

Perfect example of unconditional love. Thank you for sharing. 😊

Congrats on continued survival! Great picture! Your wife sounds like a wonderful caregiver. You will have to send another picture when you two celebrate your 50th!

All the best
