Partner struggling since coma

This is mostly venting. My fiancee was put into a medically induced coma after a seizure last year. Long story short, some people are kind of violent post seizure while their brains are calming back down. This hospital coulsnt handle it and sedated her. It lasted three weeks and some change. Had to get a trache to wake up at all and then spent another three weeks relearning to walk. Ever since, her memory has degraded and her fine motor skills are shot. She feels useless and like a weight on my life. She isn't. She's amazing and she's alive and trying so fucking hard. Her family isn't supportive and think she isn't disabled and she'll get better. We're going through the hell of applying for disability and she knows she can't work long for anyone with her short term memory. I just. Want so badly to make things easier…

Ever since, her memory has degraded and her fine motor skills are shot. She feels useless and like a weight on my life. She isn't. She's amazing and she's alive and trying so fucking hard. Her family isn't supportive and think she isn't disabled and she'll get better. We're going through the hell of applying for disability and she knows she can't work long for anyone with her short term memory. I just. Want so badly to make things easier for her. Shes trying so hard and every dropped glass and forgotten appointment is killing her.

Everything feels rigged against her and it's so fucking unfair.
