DH is dying

I don't even know what topic to put this in. My DH had a brain haemorrhage yesterday morning, the doctors have said it's not survivable. He's 60 years old and my best friend as well as my husband, we've been married for 23 years. I was sat at the bedside in ICU yesterday thinking that I wasn't going to post on mumsnet, even though like a lot of us I spend quite a bit of time here and feel like part of the community, but at 3 o'clock in the morning when you're all alone it seems like a good idea.
I got sent home from the hospital 'to try to get some sleep'.

Thinking of you today and hoping you are as OK as you can be. Hope your DD and DS are doing OK and I think you'll have been on your cruise with DS by now. Have you got something planned for this summer to look forward to?

It was okay on Sunday, spent the day with baby granddaughter, here she's wearing a red dress I bought her in Madeira, on my cruise.
