Comment on I feel like a flashbang went off in my head, so the only question that I can think of is, "What now?" (Details in body.)

You should really push your wife into good therapy that is specialized for people with conditions like MS. Frame it as part of the treatment for MS.

That said, once she starts getting therapy, you may want to have discussions with her on what your relationship is after your daughter leaves the house. She is going to need extensive support for the rest of her life. She is going to need to decide if that is with you or not. I don’t know if she is ready to make that decision now.

Frame it as part of the treatment for MS.

Solid idea. Though, I feel like this is phrased a bit strangely, because it makes it sound like this is duplicitous. A part of the treatment for any chronic condition would be how to cope with and emotionally process living with it. This is part of the treatment for MS.
