Mr Bishop rused into hospital

[Blandmum]

Today has to be one of the worst days ever. I came home from work, and the front door was open and the TV on, but I couldn't find DH. I phoned round a few mates who sometimes take him out for the day, and thankfully they came round. I found dh collapsed in the bathroom.

I thought he was dead.

Thankfully he wasn't, but it too a 999 call and the paramedics to find out that he was in a diabetic coma.

It was all so awful, it has been the thing that I've worried about most of all in his illness, coming home and finding him dead and I really thought that it had happened.

Amazingly the docs still think that he is well enough to chemo tomorrow and will arrange for us to have oxygen at home, and his o2 sats are poor, probably due to the tumous mass.

christ but this is hard. Thank god I had people with me when it happened, and MIL is visiting. If I had stayed in work for a meeting that I was supposed to go to, I think that he really could have died.

Oh good MB, though a 'goodish' night sounds exhausting for you both. Hope the day goes well.

It must be lovely to have him home. My very best wishes.

It does get very tiring, as he can sleep in the day, and catch up, but I can't

Just seen this. How frightening for you.
Thinking of you.x

Glad you had a 'goodish' night.

Hope you manage to get some rest at some stage.

Hope Mr MB has a good day and you are not too tired, MB. You must be looking forward to half-term.

God bless the NHS indeed, MB. Hope you're all feeling a bit more rested, and that the weekend is a nice peaceful family time.

i hope Mr Bish is feeling a lot perkier nowafter the horrible scare from theother day and that his chemo hasnt made him feel too bad,i also hope you have now recovered from your shock.

Hope Mr MB has had a good day - and that you have as well, with time to recover from the shock earlier this week.

Lots of love to you all,

will half term be more restful for you, MB, or less?! I hope more, I know how hard it is having disturbed sleep and no way of catching up.

But am very glad for the good bits of news, especially Mr MB's breakfast

We are hoping to get away for a few days over half term....not too far from home just in case

MB glad to see Mr MB is home and you have the oxygen sorted out.
I hope your few days away are enjoyable.

Ah, now a few days away sounds good...will be thinking of you, hope it feels like a break and you both get to enjoy it. xxx

Oh my dear, dear mb. I am so sorry you're going through all this. I haven't been posting on here for ages, but wanted to check in to see how you were. I think of you all lots. I do hope tonight is a better one.

Oh, my love.
Just catching up after a few days offline.

Thinking of you all and hoping last night was more peaceful for you all.
i hope you do get to go away somewhere special and make some memories too.

Only just seen this mb . Sorry you have such a hard time. Fingers crossed for Mr MB.

Enjoy your weekend away.

only just seen this- poor you mb i hope you are a little less shakey now. glad to hear that mr mb is home. i hoope that you can those few days away

We are planning to go to a windmill near rutland water, which should be rather nice. He was a little restless in the night and was awake feeling sick at 3. But other than that he is OK.

windmill does sound rather nice MB.

I checked with the owner (whio also has cancer, this diagnosis is rather like joining the Masons!) He says that dh will be able to get up to the first bedroom, but not the top room , with the 4 poster! Which is a shame, but nothing impossible to cope with. So the kids will get the 4 poster!.

We also have some portable o2 and the wheelchair so we are hoping to get out and about.

a windmill! how fabulous. He can be like Windy Miller off Camberwick Green . (what does that make you? did Windy Miller have a wife?)

hope you have a lovely time

Oh MB have a lovely few days away. What a scare.
