[misdee]

been to see dh. they have put him on the new strong drugs (dobutamine)) but th3ey are going to keep him on it till the op. they have given him sheets on the device (javik 2000) and iwill be trained on how to de3alwith it if things go wrong. havent actually spoken to the docs myself but will do at some point in the week. feel very overwhealmed right now, its like i'm watching someone elses lives unfold not mine and dh's.

Everything crossed for you babe x

Blimey. How do you feel misdee ?

scared, worried, happy, fearful. confused.

Shall be praying for you

hope everything goes well . thinking of you all x x

A right mix up then !

A big, big hug from me.

Hope all goes well. Stay brave and good luck.

Sounds hopeful that it will happen tonight then.
You have coped brilliantly Misdee and I am sure you will continue to do so. XXX

So, in addition to mamma misdee, it'll be nurse misdee before you know it, hey - as if you didn't already feel like a medic IYSWIM !

I'm sure all the bandage / battery /other techniques they will teach you will be taught well, and you will have ample opportunity to ask millions of questions, and to probably practice in the time they keep him in hospital. Once home, I am sure things will come together well and you will find the care something you can handle. I am sure of that. And of course, with time, Peter will be building up strength too.

Hugs misdee. X

Hey, and if you don't feel so damned sure you can handle it all, come here to have a rant and a sob and a moan, OK ?

X

want to be there so much.

well said Hub - hope all goes well wedensday for you and dee too.
