I have tried for several years to get a helper to help me as I cared for my wife with ADA and wasted a good deal of money in my attempt. I did have one FWB who I met on this site who didn't work out, but in retrospect, maybe it could have if I knew how to negotiate exactly what her purpose would have been and what she would not be expected to do. My ignorance was probably the main reason for the experiment not working. So since the year has passed and I did not find a woman to replace her, this is my latest Idea.
Have a live-in maid: Provide room and board in exchange for help. She would not be a nurse for my wife I will remain my wife's nurse. She may or may not be a FWB, it would either develop or not.
What was given up in the first try was that the State would have provided healthcare, food stamps, and even a salary (which all I could offer was a small allowance).
So. I will see if I can find a maid then.
