I’m sorry. I hear you. I was my mother’s caretaker when she was demented and crippled. It is very, very, very hard. Emotionally draining and physically exhausting. The one saving grace is that changes are incremental and that you end up being able to do what you would have considered flatly impossible at the start.
FWIW, and each situation is different, it may be time to think about alternatives or accommodations to both the bathtub and the stairs. For starters, perhaps he can’t be alone with either anymore.
Good luck. I hope he improves as predicted and that you’re able to keep on. Try to plan for the future - but I know it’s just one more damned thing when just keeping your current balls in the air is taking up all your resources.
