I feel your pain Davoe. I am 71 and been married for 45 years also. I am not quite at the needing oxygen stage with COPD yet, but it is not getting any better. I smoked for a little less than 40 years. I finally quit with using vaping for a few years and then tobacco free nicotine patches. With those I was able to wean down the nicotine until I just quit. I still crave a cigarette after over 12 years of not having one. My wife has had a bad auto accident involving an 18 wheeler a year ago, after having surgery twice(one a neck fusion, another rotator cuff), she is still in physical therapy. She also had a concussion and a brain bruise on the left side of her brain. She is forgetful. Stuff like leaving the stove on, leaving lights on, leaving cabinet doors open, setting things down and never putting them away, getting things out and leaving them out, etc. I also have to constantly keep after her. It gets old for sure, and causes some friction between us. Being stuck inside most of the time due to weather, pollen, pollution, etc. doesn't help. Living like this can make it very easy to get down. It is hard not to feel down when every day seems like a struggle just to stay somewhat normal. If there is such a thing. Sometimes it make you feel alone and forgotten. The daily news is nothing but more of a downer. Never any good news, just more of the same bad stuff. I try to stay upbeat, but sometimes it feels almost impossible to attain. Cooler weather is on the way here in south central Texas, so I am looking forward to being able to get outside a bit instead of being in the house 24/7. Life is hard and seemingly not getting better any time soon. So hang in there and try to find a few things that make you happy. Sports on TV, reading a good book, getting time with the grandkids, exercising always helps, listening to music is calming, etc. Take care and God Bless!
