I need some advice as I am very worried about this.
A couple of months ago I had to call emergency services because my husband was having a hypoglycaemic episode (he is type 1 diabetic). We were in public and he was having seizures. During the call, he managed to get up but he started shouting and being incoherent (low blood sugar affects people neurologically). He was shouting and swearing at me in between falling over.
The responder said they can't send anyone unless he stays still, so they asked me to call back if help is required. I managed to get him home and get him to eat something - his blood sugar was below 2.
I was then contacted by the police, who asked if they could come round for a chat. They said the responder was worried about my welfare due to the shouting, and asked me lots of questions you would ask a victim of domestic violence. They asked if I have been hurt physically, if I get subjected to verbal abuse etc. They said I seemed very upset: I said I was very shaken due to the incident (I thought he was going to die on the pavement) and I didn't know what to do. I was in shock. They then said they didn't see anything further to investigate and asked me to call back if anything further happened.
I've now found out they've referred me to victim support. And I'm very worried about this. I am trying to get a job which requires extensive vetting on me and everyone close to me, and if it transpires i am living with and married someone who subjects me to domestic violence I wont get the job.
What do I do? Do I withdraw from the recruitment process? Will the fact it was a medical incident excuse anything? I am worried sick about this.
