“I can’t and that makes you feel inadequate,” he added. “My functioning as a human being, as a husband, is seriously impaired.”The second “crucial” aspect, Mr Stewart added, was the increasing realisation of his dependence on his wife, Sally Ann Jung, who has been by his side for close to fifty years.‘The pressure on her is immense. All my appointments, the NHS app, all the calls, she has to do them because I cannot. Caring for me is a full-time job for her, really. It’s not what she signed up for. And in a sense, it wasn’t what I offered,” he said.Mr Stewart said his GP had prescribed him antidepressants several years ago, but admitted he was unsure whether he had noticed much difference.
