Hi just a quick up-date and sorry to Vicki as my journal page will be late.We have had a full on upset week well from last Friday when John started to go downhill and took to bed.He hasn't been out of the house since before Christmas as his heart attack in Sept advanced his dementia.We have had emergency care out twice and after a couple of falls one at half three in the morning and yesterday had to get a neighbour to come and help us lift him off the floor as son was at work.He is now fully bedridden as can no longer even stand on his own without support-good job I have my Daughter and DIL for help as she has just started a new job as a mobile carer.I haven't had any time or mojo for crafting so good job my DT posts are all done and scheduled for next month.I am trying to still keep up with commenting even though they maybe short mainly to keep my mind occupied.

Wat heftig allemaal Carol.

Carol, I'm so sorry to read about your husband . My Mum was totally immobile and bedridden for several years so I understand in part what you and your family are going through, it's devastating to watch someone you love so helpless...and very hard work looking after them. Thank goodness you have family to help and support you. Take care and look after yourself too.

ReplyDeleteSo sad to read about your Hubby Carol I'm glad you have help and support around you to deal with it all.. being a sole carer to my Mom with dementia I have recently had to bring in outside help due to it's progression as trying to balance care duties also of my MIL and own Hubby it was becoming near impossible to tend to everything each day. Please take a moment for yourself everyday I know that is easier said than done but stay strong, people are thinking of you including myself xx

It's such a dreadful time for you all Carol. My father-in-law went through the same and help is what you need most. Thank goodness you have family there. Do what you need to do and let everything else go by the wayside. It will be there for you to pick up again when things settle. Sending you loads of hugs.
