I (30m) suffered a spinal cord injury last year that left me paralyzed and my wife (28f) has shown no interest in me sexually and there’s no intimacy. What should I do?

My wife and I have been together for 7.5yrs now we use to have a pretty healthy sex life. Ever since I've become paralyzed she shows absolutely no interest in me sexually she'll let me do stuff to her when it comes to me she will not do anything and won't really try anything either there's always some sort of excuse. I've tried talking to her on multiple occasions sometimes she just ignores me and walks away other times she will say "maybe if I'm feeling up to it and not too tired" which is understandable but it has now been almost a year and a half since I've even had an orgasm or even been touched. Everytime I try to do things by myself she will get pissed off at me which is a huge turn off for me and considers it "cheating". I have absolutely no privacy and a form of ptsd thinking she's just going to come into the washroom and get pissed at me which stops me from orgasming I don't even know if I'm still capable. She does a lot to help me out otherwise but I no longer feel like this is a relationship anymore it just feels like a patient and caregiver situation now but she also gets very angry easily. Am I being too impatient? I'm paralyzed but I still have needs and I'm still human I just feel like I disgust her now. So I need advice is there any way to fix things? Is my relationship just dead now? Am I living in a fantasy world waiting for something that'll never happen until she breaks up with me and finds someone new? Should I just leave? Am I asking too much?(no there is no other person either I trust her in that aspect)What should I do? Feels like the love is fading away daily
