Diary of wifes hospital stay - holding it together for our family

Hear, hear ..... 🤗

lol @soul, not very determined at the moment.... jus stubborn and refusing to give up.

Have decided to ignore the homework issue, S2 did not raise the note again this morning so that made it easy 🙂

Managed to get a good sleep last night (or should I say this morning) so feeling a bit better in myself.
Pushed myself to stay up Rather than go to bed and toss and turn, got all of washing done and hung out on the line, and clean up in the kitchen. Put all of the bed sheets in  the wash this morning.

Got mum coming after lunch to have a 'girl look' and show me what my man eyes cant see and help me tidy the place up before darling comes home. She will likely still see stuff that is not there but at least I have tried my best and called in reinforcements to get a second opinion, cant do much more than that  :- )

Waiting for bub to go down for a sleep so I can go outside and mow, playing at my feet at the moment while I try and work on this assessment.

Trusting my darlng can relax over the weekend if there is nothing left to do .

Sounds like you have the house stuff under control. Not giving your Darling a reason to think you're having trouble coping and then for her to come home early, huh?

Try to plan something nice to do over the weekend - maybe a picnic lunch out somewhere, a movie?

Now - time to get cracking on the uni stuff. Nothing more you can do at the moment so getting some of that work done will help you feel better about things @Determined

So darling was approved to come home this afternoon for weekend leave, so far so good 🙂 

[soul]

A good start. Wishing you well for the rest of the weekend @Determined

Remembering you and yours, praying memory will be protected and treatment helpful.

We wish we had known when your birthday was @Determined. We would have celebrated in style. Isn't that right @Former-Member@Faith-and-Hope@Shaz51@

Oh yes @soul, over to the hot chocolate thread to celebrate @Determined x

[Determined]

Thank you @Former-Member it means a lot.

Had a glimmer of things to come yesterday. (Positive).
Darling called me yesterday to say she could come home yesterday for weekend leave and didn't have to wait for today. Straight away I thought WoW, there's a (happy) voice I have not herd in a long time.
Arrived to the hospital to a big smile (also unseen in a long time).

Not doing so flash this afternoon but it has been a big day, went to a school open day today as S2 was singing in the primary choir. Will quiz dr on Monday about current feelings but assuming part of the course and should clear after treatment concludes.

Coping well with the day though all things considered.

Unfortunately some early concerns re memory @Former-Member.... really trusting that it is more due to being tired from the weeks events and will improve with time.

This morning she could not remember being at last years school open day, when I told her she was resting after her bike crash... she cant remember the crash.... (It was huge, she fell of her (push)bike doing over 70 km/hr coming down a big hill).  

Earlier in the week she wanted to know why the children would be having dinner at her parents midduring the week?   Apart from the obvious, I was with her and unable to be in 2 places at once, this is something they have done every week for the last 4 or 5 years while we go shopping. 

Early positive indications give me much courage however so focusing on the positives and praying the concerns are short term and limited. Other than the love and encouragement I have recieved here, faith in a loving God that has a plan gives me much strength. Leaning on that strenth at the moment.
