One of my jobs when I was younger involved caring for a toddler with CP.  He lived with his Dad and grandparents.  His Dad paid me to work with him.  The Grandmother had MS.  She was wheelchair bound.  Her husband paid me to keep an eye and help her with her needs.  What a fantastic family they were.  It was hard for her as she was the independent and determined sort.  She cooked, did laundry etc... just need extra hands to help when her gripper couldn't do the job.  Perhaps there is a trade off you could do with someone.  ie: you watch there kids, take them to Dr.'s appointments and they come by and help a few times a day/week.  There are a ton of single Mom's and Dad's out there that are in situations as well... Might have to think outside of the box and seek local churches if you're not already involved with one.

You might want to check into state help for health care workers provides who do this if you have no money to pay they probably will set you up with a free provider which the state pays for to come in help out here and there for you

I'm sorry that you are dealing with this. Have you tried looking for someone at your church or what about someone in your neighborhood that could at least pop in the house mid day or so and check on her? Family?

I am sorry to hear that.  My prayers go out to you and your wife.  Try calling your city county for people with disabilities.  They possibility have a service or services that can help you and especially your wife while you are at work.

What everyone have suggested is good.  My prayers goes out to you and yours.

moonangel update us and let us know if and what works out for you guys.  I sure hope something will work out to assist you because I know the position you two are in - been there with my now deceased husband.  It's rough when you have to work.  I am assuming you don't have any family to help out?

It seems there are some good ideas posted on here.  I've never had to cope with your kind of problem but I hope you can find some help for her while you are at work.

Hi,
I am in a wheelchair.  Have you contacted attendant care programs in your state?  These programs often help people to finance the cost of care.  I wish you all the best.  Please feel free to contact me for any advice.

I'm so sorry for both of you, God bless you both.
