My DH just been taken into hospital with an irregular heartbeat, low oxygen and breathlessness worse than normal due to COPD. He has been unwell since xmas eve and we have tried to cope at home with calls to 111 and gp ringing us back with prescription for antibiotics and steriods as he is prone to chest infections. But this morning we had to admitt defeat. Hoping they will discharge later today as dont really want him staying in there, also that they will sort out what ever the issue is. sad

Oh dear. Still no update from poor Travelsafar. Does anyone know her from meet ups? I really hope she's OK.

Travelsafar Another day with no news of you and your husband. My thoughts remain with you. Wishing you a peaceful night.

It is worrying.

Hoping you are all right, travelsafar

How worrying that travelsafar has dropped off the gransnet radar in recent days after sharing her concerns about her DH. Particularly as she was feeling unwell herself due to covid.

We are all thinking of you both travelsafar and hoping you’ll be back with positive news when you feel up to it.

Thinking about you travelsafar
and wondering if any other Grans on here know travelsafar better, have her e mail or have had any contact from her and can give us news?
Get Well soon ?

Thinking of travels and a little concerned. She too had covid. Hope it hasn't hit her too hard, on top of the worry about her hubby.

Hello travels
When my DH was in hospital like you I started a thread, and I was so overwhelmed by all of the lovely responses that I felt that I couldn't reply because I was lost for words.

Please just pop on and say hello.
thanks

travels flowers

Bathsheba Mon 04-Jan-21 21:52:58

Yes I too have been worrying about travels. It's so upsetting having no way of being able to contact her and check she's OK.

Travalsafar if you're managing to read this, I hope it's at least of some comfort to know that so many people here care about you flowers

MissAdventure Mon 04-Jan-21 20:24:23

I do hope travels has someone to look after her.

SueDonim Mon 04-Jan-21 20:09:52

Yes, I’ve been refreshing and hoping Travels is ok.

Grannynannywanny Mon 04-Jan-21 20:08:29

I’ve been thinking the same Marydoll. It’s a concern to think she is at home alone while she is feeling so unwell.

nadateturbe Mon 04-Jan-21 20:08:07

It is worrying indeed. I hope she has some support.

GrandmaKT Mon 04-Jan-21 19:59:17

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your husband travelsafar.
This thread really brings it home how quickly the virus can take a hold and have devastating effects. flowers

Marydoll Mon 04-Jan-21 19:50:04

It's a bit worrying that we haven't heard from travelsafar. I hope she is OK and is getting support.
