What can I do to get my family ready to support me being ill?

No previous health anxiety but a few things lead me to suspect I'm going to be quite ill.

Had a full day in hospital on Monday, 7am to 7.15pm. DH is totally unable to appreciate that at the end of the day, I need to eat and perhaps talk about what is going on.

How can I talk to DH about getting a grip of the 'for worse' and 'sickness' bits ahead. He's really not getting it at the moment.

Have two DDs 14 & 12 - have laid some good foundations but a lot of room for improvement!

Is this your 3rd post? Are you ok?

I have three incredibly rare illnesses. I’m in and out of hospitals and drs like there is no tomorrow

What’s concerning you? I just get on with it. But I’m incredibly stoical.
