Sorry I have not posted for a bit on this thread.
It seems to be taking ages to get perminant care sorted. out.
I will have to go look at all I wrote for fear of repeating myself. - Things here have been hard for a bit.
DH is now 9 months after his last heart surgery. He is a lot better than he was but is getting bad nose bleeds again He hemeraged from his nose a good lot of times before his heart attack. So I worry about going back down this road again. He has also had to use the GTN a good bit more due to ongoing chest pains. So I try to keep stress to a minimum if that were ever a possibility in this house?
Trying to reduce the stress has not been very easy lately. We are now getting regular overnight care for Dan which is helpful to a digree. However it is a shame it took soo many years and DH having a heart attack before they offered us anything at all and even now we are only supposed to get three nights per month. Which is not nearly enough! Now I have managed to get a letter from a consultant to say the stress of care of Dan is putting too much pressure on DH and that he needs to have more restbite care nights for Danny and he really needs Dan to have full time care longterm. It is what is making DH so ill and proper care for Dan would mean Dh might improve health wise and that has got to be good for the both of us. We might even get to enjoy a few stress free years.
I know it will kill me to see the lad go, but then when I am in tears at night over it, then the next time I have to shower or dress Dan and he attacks me. Often leaving scars on my arms etc I think girl - "Don't be soft he has to go before you end up in a grave." I have to think of DH and he is needing care sooo muc now too. I can't care for them both. It simply is not fare. So Dan is very much on the list which is actually confirmed for full time residential care. - So please pray we get a good placement for the lad. It seems to be ever closer and yet forever. I really am torn at times. But the boy is 26 yrs old this year nearly 30 and I think I have done more than enough.
