I have been a caregiver of my husband since his motorcycle accident in 1999. I had 3 young girls to raise and between caring for him and keeping busy with them I felt needed and my time was full of good things. Now my girls are grown and enjoying their own lives and I feel alone and unecessary. My husbands injury has left him unable to remember things and he functions more at a childlike level so I lost my companion in a way. I relied on being involved in my childrens lives . now I dont know what to do with mine. Feeling lost and lonely.
