Overwhelmed

My husband recently diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's (63) and caring for aging parents. I am feeling very overwhelmed and sad and just all the feelings. I am really glad I found this group. I feel like I need somewhere to go to talk about what's happening and this seems like a safe place. I've already read some of the posts on here and it's so good to know I am not alone in feeling the way I do. Once I can wrap my head around what is happening I'm sure I'll have some questions.
