My husband has had cancer for a year now and I am his only caregiver. There have not been any offers of help from his family. Not even a ride, lunch, or even just texting and telling my husband how the grandchildren are. This is making things difficult for my husband and myself. I don't want to be bothered with them at this point. Can you help?

I am 52 years old, my husband is 47. He has degenerative disc disease, fibromyalgia, arthritis, and carpel tunnel syndrome. I am really frustrated that he doesn't want to help himself. I feel totally lost. I have no motivation. Is there someplace I could go to talk to someone?
