My husband, (47 years old) was diagnosed with limb onset MND in November 2006. Since then we have sold and brought a new house without stairs. I continue to work, and my husband is on sick leave from the police. He is still very independent, but struggles with tiredness - particularly if he overexerts himself. I am struggling with managing his moodiness. My husband has a very strong belief in Christian faith, and appears to completely accept his disease and the path that lies ahead of him. It is me that has the problem. I feel guilty about my continued ability to go to work, about my resentment at having to complete all the daily tasks which we used to share, about what lies ahead of me in terms of probably being primary care giver.
I feel so selfish, and scared of the future... help!
