I know there may be more specific sites to put this thread but I can't bring myself to go there
DH is in hospital with Leukaemia- and for the past few weeks has had a chest infection
Now he has 2 chest infections
I have been visiting x2 a day but not since Thursday as I got Covid (for the first time)
The Macmillan nurse has just rung asking me to do a test as the Dr wants to have an conversation' and it might be easier if I am there
Of course I am still testing positive
I tried to get details out of her but all she would say is that it is a serious conversation
Dr is due to ring me soon
I feel sick with nerves and so guilty that I am not there
He is 49
I really need a hand hold

MumofSpud · 04/10/2022 19:24

Reading each and every post - it's helping
DC are here as well
DH is sleeping on and off
He started being all practical earlier which I couldn't listen to then he just said 'all those places we wanted to go to' (we love travelling and he was lucky enough to get free flights at work) and that broke me a bit.
But I know that so many people have their own experiences so we are not aloneTennis

Absolutely heartbreaking reading him say that. Life is far to short and all the good people are the ones that suffer.

im so sorry 😞

Sistanotcista · 04/10/2022 19:30

Glad your DC are there too. Time enough for practicalities later - one day at a time. It’s good that you are all together. Wish we could take this away from you. Thoughts and love to you all 💙❤️
