Waste of time holidaying with a disabled person

I'm really hurt because husband has just said you'll be a nightmare on holiday because you need a new hip. He's sick and tired of dropping me off near our destination and going off to park because it hurts me to walk far.

Our son has invited us to join them on a villa holiday in Portugal. I think husband would prefer to leave me at home.

The thing is I'd be around to watch the children, babysit which husband wouldn't do.

I'd love to be fitter but between my scoliosis and hip issues I admit I'm a bit slow on my feet.

Am I being unreasonable to want to go, my kids and grandkids have no issues.

Go to Portugal, enjoy your family time, don’t give a second thought to the DH.

I have a disabled son. He's 21. We went to Greece last year and just adapted what we did, and it was fab.

Your husband is a selfish twat.

I think it would be better if you went, and left your H at home

Are you due to get a new hip?

It sounds rude of him?

Leave your ‘d’ husband behind!
