Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

Hello @PeppiPatty, over here my special friend xx

Hello Everyone

Love to hear from others on the forum if you experience this

My hubby has been diagnosed with lots of things and has had MI all his life

do you find things goes ok and i start to feel confident and wanting to go forward and then everytime something always happens to upset it -- sometimes I think is it a controlling thing ?? that he wants to be in control ??

Don`t know if I am making this up , but i have that feeling ,

Okay thats good @Shaz51 ... I'm really glad you were able to be there for your Mum.

What you need to do now is to get some rest. You will need to be on top of your game in days to come.

Hopefully you will get some good news about your Mum soon, and that will help you in getting some relieved sleep.

You have a busy time ahead of you, so its really important you do all you can to ensure you maintain your own health as best you can. That starts with decent rest/sleep.

Good morning to you @Shaz51

Thinking of you and wondering how your Mum is doing. Please keep in mind that the best way you can take good care of both your Mum and Mr Shaz ... is to take care of YOU. 😀💖💕💕

Hi @Shaz51 💕💕

Oh your poor Mum! I expect this will be a bit of a stay in hospital for her?

How is Mr Shaz today?

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

Oh yeah thats right ... I'd forgotten about your appointment @Shaz51 I think you mentioned somewhere about having a mamogram this week. Was it done at the hospital that your Mum is in? If so, thats very convenient. Is your Mum pumped full of pain killers to keep her comfortable? How is her general frame of mind, and does she know what happened to cause fall etc?

Poor Mr Shaz, he has done well to have already mowed two lawns. Especially when its so hot and humid. Actually its quite warm and humid here too. We had big thunder storms come through early this morning. And today is sticky, humid and the mozzies are ravenous. All this dampness from the floods has them breeding up big time. Getting eaten alive every time I walk out the door. Swat at them on arms and legs and getting 3 or 4 with every swat. Blasted things.

I am okay thanks. As per usual I do not sleep well at this time of year, in the lead up to trauma anniversary. Lots of nightmares and sleep disruptions, so always very tired. But I've been into town today. Its my volunteer day at the nursing home, so it was good to get there. And I collected hubbys scripts while in town and went to the Fisho and got some oysters and atlantic salmon for dinner. Yumm! Hubbys favourite too.

And right now we have the refridgeration fellow here to fix and service our wonky air conditioner. That'll be nice.
