OH has fractured femur - not a good situation

More for you Luckygirl xx

Two DDs have been in and have let me know he is fine. Good news.

Good news luckygirl. Now rest.?

Luckygirl you will worry about your husband but it's only natural. Please remember that we need to look after ourselves as well if we want be of any help to others.

Oh good news Lucky! I hope you'll be able to switch off now for a while and enjoy some time without caring duties. Your OH will get the very best care. I imagine you'll have a few conflicting thoughts but you need the rest and a bit of time to do nothing much but take care of yourself.

Try not to worry about your OH. He's being well taken care of and now it's your turn for some TLC. Sleep and get your own health problems sorted. Enjoy your evening with friends. xx

Wonderful news. Now you can begin to relax and get a better perspective on life. I hope your DH can stay there as long as you need.

Enjoy your break! I do hope your other half enjoys his too!

Fabulous news- a shock to both of your systems but it did not give him time to breathe and therefore fret about what was about to happen.

Have this evening "off" and enjoy a good night's sleep.

xxx great news

Great news lucky if your local hospice is anything like the ones I’ve been involved with then he will have gold star care. Enjoy every moment of the break!

*Luckygirl*, I am happy that you will have a rest and be able to have your knee looked at. I'm sure your OH will be well cared for. You have high standards in regard to the type of care he is provided with. I respect your determination in waiting until you found a care home that you felt is trustworthy.
I hope that the health of your OH improves very soon.
My best wishes to both of you.??

Thanks everyone.

Just back from settling him in - he gulped down an excellent lunch and seems very impressed with his private room with wet room, TV etc.

I feel completely drained and am worrying whether he will get his meds on time! - it is so ingrained in me now. But I plan to have a sleep now and relax. The singers are coming tonight so I will be able to concentrate on that and not be running up and down to the bedroom.

How long will it take me to wind down I wonder!?

Lucky, great news. Rest! xx
