I too have been longing for the simple pleasures of the past, dreading the future and struggling through the present. I miss the life we had together and get very sad when something, anything, triggers a memory of our pre-ALS life and I am reminded that we will never again share those special moments. I do try to make the most of the present. I also have set up a twin bed next to the hospital bed, and when they are pushed together we can snuggle and it offers both of us comfort. It is very different than it used to be...but I'll take what I can get. I mourn for all we have lost every day. It is so hard to be upbeat and give him the best possible care when my heart hurts so much. For his sake, I do my best, not always successful. I am so sorry life is like this for so many of us. So painful!
