Just thought I’d create a new thread. To help us to keep track of what’s happened.
My DH was ventilated last week. We’ve had two calls to see him due to him being very close to death. He isn’t stable but he is still alive at the moment. All we can do is wait.
I’m not going to lie, I’m not coping at all. My mum has moved in to help me cope with daily life. We’ve spoken with the children and they know how serious it is. They are also struggling now with the youngest stepping back from schooling when she needs to.
I can’t think ahead. Just usually about the hour or two that we’re living in. It’s very surreal. And incredibly difficult. Doctors are very realistic about prognosis and survival, which is really hard to hear.
I am incredibly grateful for all the support we’ve had as a family. MN is a remarkable place at times.
@groovinpeanut - 
my heart goes out to you and your family and I’m so sorry for the loss of your DH, message me anytime X
@intheshadowofthemushroomcloud - for all your support and messages.
I have had several messages from other mnetters who don’t have their own threads but who are also experiencing this living hell it’s a horrible journey and we don’t know how it will end but all we can do is hope/pray for a better outcome.
I haven’t always had the energy to post, too fearful of jinxing things and generally the last few days have been very raw and intense. But I’ve read every message and I’m so grateful of the support.
