Medical care

Hey all
Long story short I was taken into the ICU not too long ago as I was unable to breathe on my own.

I’m 194cm tall at 117kg and gym frequently. I am not fat by any means however I am struggling to take care of myself.

Examples
Showering I cannot wash everywhere due to extreme mobility issues (skin is now getting infected in some spots due to excessive sweat)

Getting dressed is a struggle

Tying shoes is mission impossible

On paper it sounds like I’m morbidly obese but I’m far from it

I’m starting to do mobility training to help but I cannot look after myself alone and I do struggle to breathe when I sleep

My question is what do I do?
Do I hire a care worker ?
Is that even an option for me ?
I’m 21 this year
