That's what I keep thinking @Zoe7 with each passing day. Unless something extraordinary happens I will still be harnessed to him through D2, unfortunately ..... but then extraordinary things can happen. Trying to. It even think about it at the moment. We will have the larger family occasions ahead of us yet - baptisms, maybe weddings, special event birthdays when we will have to be in the same room for the sake of our kids, and major occasions like Christmas and New Year to sort out re who goes where for what. All of it would be okay if he had been half way civil. If he had left in an honest way because we didn't work out, and met her in the natural course of getting his lif back on, having treated me with decency in the break-up ...... but no ..... he had to turn it all to shite and trash future happiness in the process for everybody. But then, that's totally the nature of the condition that he appears to have, so he is proving that diagnosis with everything he is doing.

Holding out for it to all rebound on him.

Hi to anyone else around. In know I am chatting to @Zoe7 about this, but y'all know my story, so it's for everybody when I post updates here.

What's the prognosis for your hand @Zoe7 ?

That's the difficulty @Faith-and-Hope He has not only been less than civil but vindictive, underhanded and nasty in the process. His ongoing relationship with his 'bit' showed nothing but contempt for your relationship whether that was over or not even the thought of seeking out someone else is a betrayal of the highest level. Now you owe him nothing and if/when it all comes back to bite him then he has no-one but himself to blame - and he is the one that hated his father doing the same thing - grrr!

Those family occasions and continued interaction because of D2 will be super hard but you will put your kids first as always to get through - and no doubt he will feel the force of the disdain from some family members along the way ...all of which he deserves in spades. You have to stay as strong as you can Hon but also allow yourself to feel the hurt because you can only be the best version of yourself dealing with it all through all those emotions - bottling it up, as we know, has longer term consequences. You have your family, friends and all us here on your side and that means something

Hand is going to take a few weeks to heal and for me to be able to use it properly again. Wound dressings and ABs for the next 5 days at least and then see how it goes. Have to wait for my outpatient appointment early next week then have a GP appointment next Thursday to check it again ...and probably regular appointments for the following week to do the same. As long as the infection and swelling is under control it should be okay but the issue with this type of injury is the infection may not fully gone and it may reoccur (worst case scenario - back to hospital for further treatment). The major issue throughout the surgery was due to the anaesthetic - they couldn't control my breathing and took too long to wake up. A predicted hour long surgery and recovery lasted 5 hours. I won't go into it further here but it was touch and go for a while so that has to be further investigated also. The recovery was longer because I did not have enough oxygen getting into my system whilst on constant oxygen so that is a concern. I have meds to try to help with that for the next few days also then it needs further investigation next week - need to see my GP first to get another referral - they highly suspect sleep apnea but are also worried about my heart and lungs ....so a lot to deal with aside from just my hand.

Good news about Kira @oceangirl

Yes, hopefully Kira will be ok and be healthy. I'm glad the vet didnt have any bad news.
@oceangirl 🥰

sHopefully something as simple as iron levels @Zoe7 ..... or a combination of things like that (I think I have got that right - iron for haemoglobin and oxygen / blood transfer ?? Need nurses like @Sans911 and @Former-Member to correct me here).

Will be keeping everything crossed for you @Zoe7 🤞🤞🤞

They did a lot of blood tests whilst I was there @Faith-and-Hope and nothing mentioned (that I can remember anyway). Hopefully it as all passed onto my GP. They wanted me to see her this week but she doesn't have an appointment until next week. I am going to call her tomorrow though and see if she can get me in sooner - would have done it today but she doesn't work Tuesdays.

Have to rest now @Faith-and-Hope Hope your night is okay Hon. Will check in sometime tomorrow. Love and hugs to you, D2 and Nelly

@Former-Member @Anastasia Love to you both as well

Take care @Zoe7 ..... rest well 🦋💕

Sleep well dear @Zoe7 🌸
