I love caring for my wife with dementia but need time off. I need a weekend, but I'm not sure she can handle the separation.

Does anyone use respite care to come to my house for a while so I can go out and run errands? I used to do respite care for a girl.

Just read about 2 companion services that may be a less expensive option for paid and volunteer helpers.

My mom fell, pulled a tendon and while at the hospital they discovered she has Atrial Fibrillation. So we're moving her in our home.
