Today I have got my husband up, bathed and fed him, dressed him, cleaned his teeth. He wanted to go to the casino, so I took him. I wheeled him all around there, pushed the buttons for him. I cleaned up his poop 3 times, endlessly repositioned him in his wheelchair. When we came home I put him in the living room with the tv on and said I was going in my room for a bit and could he let me have some time to myself. That was not to be..
There was more raising and lowering of the wheelchair, cleaning his nose out, adjusting his arms and legs, removing hair from his face etc. I couldn't stand it anymore so I got angry and shouted and cried a lot. I tell him he has to let me have 15 minutes to myself, he looks at me as I say all this, then says fix my legs, again. AARGH. It's like he doesn't even hear what I say, he's just concerned about himself. It makes me so angry that he never seems to hear me or ignores what I say.
Sorry I rambled on a bit but I got really upset with him.
