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 i am so sorry for your loss, life is so unfair. May the memories of happy times together with DH eventually dull the pain that you are now going through. Xx

Dear OP, we are all sending love and sympathy to you and your DS. What a terrible shock for you and your family. Although your DH was ill, this ending was brutally sudden, when you were still thinking in terms of months at least.

He sounds very loving, the way he was talking about travels he still wanted to share with you. At least you had a chance to say goodbye to this lovely man. You made his death as gentle as it could be. I hope all your family are loving and supportive to you and DC.

Best wishes to you all. xx
