I was really hoping Mic would be home by Christmas. Not a chance I was told today. Ain't life a bitch. I shouldn't feel sorry for me. Mic is so p1ssed off and he's getting really depressed about it. He wants to come home, I want him home but we are told as yet he is not well enough and even if he was they say I couldn't manage his care on my own. They are probably right, We are still p1ssed off though.
Is there a small cottage or some charity facility where you could go to, jeza, within striking distance of your hospital and that may offer support. In the States, there are such offerings, often run by charities. May be worth a query or two.....
Ah Jeza, sorry to hear that but probably best to do what the quacks say. Far worse for Mic to come home and his recovery take longer than it should, best he stays where he is for now and comes home fighting fit, x
Oh Jeza, what a shame, but they will try to make a nice day of it in the hospital and they will allow longer visiting hours so that you can stay with Mic. You would not be able to help him, he would be too heavy for you and it would not be good if you fell and you both landed up in hospital. Cheer up and try to make the day as good as you can.
Hi Jeza, so is he even nearer now? If so, that must be a small weight of your mind with driving in the dark, etc (not to mention that they must be pleased with the progress he is making). I would think that visiting would be quite flexible over Christmas time.
Sher, he is now about 8 miles away. Much better than before. Closer and in a specialised unit. Some days I really see improvement, other days I think we are back at the beginning.
It is no wonder you feel as you do, Christmas is about home and all you can do this year is make the best of it - with a love so strong, I know you will. ♥
