Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

worked today , appt for mr shaz

home again now after seeing mum

mr shaz announced that we should only work 4 days a week , have fridays off

hello @Owlunar , @Former-Member , @Bunniekins , @Former-Member

love the picure @Appleblossom

Four days a week is nice if sustainable @Shaz51

My mum had another fall today, dislocated her shoulder. I cannot believe they are not keeping her in hospital overnight.

Hi @Shaz51 ... 4 days a week sounds fantastic. Is it do-able do you think ... financially? You both work so hard, and in very physically demanding jobs ... cleaning and gardening. 4 days a week would be more than most people could handle ... even without the physical health conditions you both suffer from.

@Former-Member- oh dear, a dislocated shoulder would be very painful I'd imagine. Really sorry to hear your Mum had the fall, and disappointed that the hospital does not have the foresight to keep her in for at least one night. She would be in pain, likely on pain meds, and thus at an even greater risk of further falls now. Grrrrr .... 😠

Hi to @Owlunar and @Appleblossom and @Bunniekins.

My SIL offered to stay with her @Former-Member but just had a message come through and they are going to keep her in a couple of nights, just trying to get a bed for her now.

Trust all went OK with Mr S doc visit @Shaz51 .

and mowing @Former-Member , mr shaz love to retire tomorrow xx

I went and saw mum today at lunch after 4 hours cleaning and mum was so worried about seeing blood on her

ohhhh no , I cleaned her up and found where it was , and mum can not remember picking it , but because she is on blood thinners

yes @Former-Member , @Former-Member

mr shaz`s results came back all good , to keep on all his meds

mr shaz went through the course of ADHD too but I think after living with it for 50 years has shaped his future and he has put his own coping experience in there andi has come out that he has not got ADHD , like mr shaz says " how do they know i don`t have SZ

My ex husband had a serious schizoid illness. They generally have a different profile to Mr Shaz.

Take Care All

sounds good @Sherry

have to find a balance somehow

I was at mum`s doing the boxes when mr shaz came and brought me a working shirt -- what we are doing a job now

anyway we did the job , did not take long

when i went to see the customers , she gave me the biggest hug for doing the job without being asked to do it
