Hi Jim, good to meet you. I think you have enough to deal with without giving up any money. Is your wife still with you at home? If she’s not in hospital or in care then you have every right to your money. I do hope you make a good recovery and get all the help you need. Take care and wishing you and your wife well. Thinking of you both. Xxxx

Hi Jim14, This is a a difficult situation for you to handle. It's not easy I know. Even though you can't directly help her at the moment, it's not a cause for giving up any benefits you receive as you are still having to organise her care, so don't worry. As sassy59 has so wisely said you don't need to consider this unless she is in hospital or residential care.

I'd say just take one day at a time and just do what you are able to do. I hope your wife is better very soon so that you can get back into your normal routine. Take care!
