[misdee]

just feel so drained. how much more can his body take? they have pumped him full of meds to help his heart and thats whats caused the other probs. he seriously cant carry on like this.

oh and wheelchair clinic have said he'll need an assessment which he'll heart about in 3-4weeks, then has to be measured up etc, so its gonna be a while tioll he gets a wheelchair. by that point who knows what sort of state he'll be in, if he is still here

[bundle]

ho sweetie, I'm sure you are completely drained, have they said how quickly the drugs will work?

[edodgy]

Im really sorry to hear this, Thinking of you and pray that a new heart comes to him soon.
