Hi I get my vaccine as CEV. Can my husband get one too?

@Endlesslymumming

Rosesandlemonade, I really hope you can overlook some of the posts on here. You don’t have to justify your situation to people on the internet. As for people assuming nobody who needs a carer is able to hold down a job....really? And why not? Don’t be so daft. And disablist.

My son will need a carer of some level all his life. He is physically able and will probably get a degree. Very possibly a very good one. You would not know to look at him, or if you served him in a coffee shop anything was ‘different’ form any other 18yr old. I will be his carer until I die. And then, someone else will be. It might even be someone he’s in a relationship with. The reason for the needs and the form of his disability is never something he or I should find ourselves having to justify. But we do, both of us, in tiny and huge ways every single week of our lives. Why are other people’s needs and disabilities so hard to just accept?

Thank you that's kind. People make assumptions when they have no idea what they're talking about. It's even easier when you can't see the person and they're just a faceless screen name. But yes I be assured I over look things. I like to make my point sure, but what people say on here doesn't bother me in the slightest. Some people are just narrow minded but then I suppose if I reply then maybe they might just take my one comment on board.

Maybe they won't. But I'm never going to meet them so it doesn't really matter. But if one person goes away knowing that you can actually be a successful (I hope, in what I do- I'm not successful in anything else I've tried if I'm honest, in fact I've failed abysmally at every other job, my job suits me very well indeed for many reasons - others not so much !) working adult with children, but also have multiple serious illnesses and be disabled and need a carer, when they would have assumed that that wasn't possible - well that's great that they now know! And if they don't go away thinking that well, no skin off my nose as I know it's true!

I wish your son every success in whatever he chooses to do, and hopefully meets the acceptance he deserves along the way!

@RosesAndLemonade no it was yourself who was being judgmental you said it was a waste of a vaccine for another posters husband to have a vaccine if they had already had it.
I was explaining to you why someone may be unable to function at all without their carer and so would need their carer to be well.
The only possible reason I could come to why you would have such a complete like of empathy for others circumstances is that due to you being able to work as a teacher with SEN children which is a physical and demanding job was you did not require a carer for almost every aspect of physical care.
I will remind you again what you wrote
That's totally unreasonable OP! Why does your DH need it if you've had it! That's a waste of a vaccine that should definitely go to someone else who needs it.

Your attitude is appalling.

*lack of empathy

WhoseThatGirl · 01/02/2021 11:49

Organise your vaccine for the end of the day. Let them know if there are spares he would like one too. You never know.

Oh give it a rest and be quiet. You don't know me or anything about my life.

RosesAndLemonade · 01/02/2021 11:53

If there's someone who needs an empathy check that's you my so feel free to come back to me when you've decided to be a little more decent. Well, no don't bother because I can't be arsed to get involved with someone quite so dick-ish. Have a lovely day.

MyDcAreMarvel · 01/02/2021 20:29

@RosesAndLemonade you don’t know anything about the op’s or her husband life and yet you told her that a vaccine would be wasted despite it enabling him to care for her.
Your comment was nasty and uncalled for.

studentvera · 07/02/2021 14:48

Wow didn't realise my post would cause such a debate! Just to say while my husband wasn't booked in the vaccinated him too
