Ex carer now in need of one

I have been a full time carer, strong, able to lift another. 

Now I am a shadow of myself, awaiting diagnosis which will hopefully be of some use. 

How many I wonder are strong in their youth and crumble increasingly as their mid years progress. Becoming old before their time. 

Being a wheelchair bound wreck and being somewhere at the upper end of the ASD spectrum, is really no fun at all.

    Hi again.  I suppose you've thought of this already, but you could join online forums that interested you + contribute.  When things are completed financially you can then consider having someone to help you at times in + outside of the home.  Good luck with everything, it is extremely unfortunate (to put it mildly) that the economic situation is so dire, affecting those who need help the most.
