This year my wife Allison and I have been married for 50 years ,and for ten years she has been suffering from Alzheimer’s. I am my wife’s full time carer, and get NO HELP from any NHS organisation. I grind myself into the ground day after day to care for her. It is soul destroying and sucks the life out of you. I sympathise with all the carers who have posted their comments here as we are all in the same boat. The government will always find an excuse why more can’t be done to help both carers and sufferers. The only thing that keeps you going is the love you have for the sufferer. I can only say ....Best Wishes to all us Carers
