Hello Don,
with my humble English speak i can only say it is a dreadful expierience when a beloved person is more and more taking a leave until this person is vanished and nothing of her personality is left, but her body is still alive. My mother in law had gone this way after her crippling stroke. The person was physically still there, but the personality you have known disappeared in stages. This was a large mental burden for me and my family. So i believe i can understand the strain you are exposed now. And it was in my eyesight the right decision to give her over into the care of professional nurses. This banned also the danger of overstressing yourself.
Fill your emptiness with new projects. As your wife is shepherded by professionals, you have now the time for it.
My best wishes for you and your family
Lutz
