It's going to cost me roughly $4000/mo to put my wife in a clean and safe facility so that she can live out her last years in an environment that is conducive for her health and mine.

Today I felt like I was gonna have a heart attack.

I think I've found a place about 3 miles away from my house. A place I've driven by often.

We'll see how everything turns out.....but I'm just about at the end of my rope.

So sorry to read this. I dealt with my mother's mental deterioration in her final years. It's good your wife is in a safe place set up to deal with her conditions.
 
i am so sorry to hear that...you are beginning a hard long road...my mother lasted 10 years with dementia ...

best wishes for you both...remember its one day at a time and i am sorry to say this....one day you will walk in and she will not know you....the shock will tear at you...

I had to retire from Civil Service to care for her since 2019.
