Lost Alone and confused

Vent/Rant/FML

So my wife of almost 15 years has given up on us. Caused my daughter to run away from home. And worst of all makes my daughter feel unloved. I by no means am the perfect husband. I hear but dont listen unless it is a serious problem. I work alot. I provide, dont cheat, and make sure everyone has a comfortable life. I carry alot of the relationship as she got diagnosed with thrombooytic pulmonary hypertension. 1 year after we were married. I stayed to help raise my stepson. I helped her through open lung surgeries to remove the blood clots in her lungs. I stayed though all the depression that came with that. She later broke her back by falling off a latter. I stayed to finish raising her son and our daughter. As I stated she recently ran away and yes she is home now. After showering her with the love I feel she needed. I am at a cross roads because my daughter knows I am unhappy. My wife lays around all day. Dosen't cook, clean or do dishes. She stays up all night sleeps all day. Doesn't help kid with school work blames my daughter for everything. I habe brought up these issues time and time again. She gets better then back to what it is. She blames me for not makimg enough money. And wants to live a social media life style. Shes close to 50 has to have oxygen on her at all times. She stated that she no longer wants sex just intimacy. I have no idea what that even means. My house is filthy. I try to keep up but she doesn't clean up after her self.

I know I need her to leave. For my kids sake. I am trying to rebuild this but maybe its lost.
