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

KitchiHuritAngeni · 04/10/2022 15:42

I've been in a similar position op Flowers

I know it feels fucking awful right now because you don't know anything.

I hope the meeting with the doctor goes as well as it possibly can, and that you have real life support to help you process the information you get.

Your dh will be leaning on you right now, so make sure you have people who are just there for you to vent at, shout at, stress at or whatever else you need.
