I feel really guilty feeling so down. I should be on top of the world. I've survived cancer..5 years now...my DH has survived a cardiac arrest and prostate cancer.
The thing is I don't think my next scan is for 5 years although I'm still going to have cystocopies. My DH is well except for aches and pains. He dreams every night thrashing about, catching frogs and mice. Fighting the odd tiger or shouting at boys on motorbikes. He sometimes wanders in the night looking for items. This disturbs my sleep which causes me to be exhausted in the mornings. He always brings me a cup of tea in bed and can never remember his night time antics. I love him dearly and he is the most wonderful husband and grandpa.
.I have gained weight and feel too tired and unmotivated to exercise. I like walking but injured my knee about 6 weeks ago and it's only just better.
My mother is driving me nuts. She has AMD and her eyesight is terrible. She is in denial and won't take any advice from the specialists at the eye clinic. She is quite able otherwise, walking a mile into town every day. She used to meet friends for coffee but they have either died or are too infirm to come to town. She is 92 in December. Her home is not very clean but she won't let me help her. It's because she can't see.
Sorry too witter on. I feel a little better getting this off my chest.
I'm 68 and sometimes feel that I should be taking it easy.
My cat has acne and fleas. I can't catch him to treat him. I feel I'm going bonkers sometimes.
I'm going to the beach hut for a few days next week but am already worrying that DH will sleep walk and end up goodness knows where.
