Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

Hello @dizzyroundabout and welcome to the forum

and if I am ok , he is ok

glad you have come to have a chat

and rememebering our own self care to helps us

letting you know that you are not alone my friend

Hello @Former-Member , @Former-Member , @eth

sorry I have not been around for the last few days

what a weekend !!!!!!

and now i have a sore thoat and feels like swollen glades at the back of my mouth

Hope it's nothing serious @Shaz51 you have enough to deal with already. Take care my friend. Lemon honey and ginger drink might help. Especially if you have the fresh ingredients.

thank you @eth , i will

and hoping to see the doctor tomorrow

It made it worse yesterday as I vomitted all day

Oh @Shaz51 ... that is not at all good. So sorry you've been so unwell. @BlueBay also has a really sore throat and swollen glands ... might be a bug doing the rounds of the forums. 😉

I hope the vomiting has resolved now Shaz. Make sure you keep up the fluids ... plenty of water. And I hope you manage to get in to see your Doctor tomorrow.

Here's something I hope will help to cheer you up.

Hello @Former-Member , @eth , @Former-Member , @Determined , @Smc , @Appleblossom , @Owlunar , @Adge , @Jacques , @Faith-and-Hope

today I had morning tea with mum, aunty and cousin -- i really needed the connection with family

- (mr shaz said he is not going to my mum`s again) ever after what happened through the week

Yikes @Shaz51

Stomach bugs = 😵😵😵

A double whammy with you both vomiting.

I had to allow Mr Darcy some space in relation to some of my family members. He is working ok along side my brother doing the garden beds but that relationship can be challenging.

I had to allow Mr Darcy some space in relation to some of my family members. -- yes I will do that too @Former-Member

hard sometimes

experienced blue around the mouth today , might have to tell the doctor this week

I would be ringing nurse on line @Shaz51 to check on the blue round mouth.

Blue around mouth is not good @Shaz51 @Former-Member is right get clear advice.

Shaz yes its important to separate out person from illness.

Lovely that you had good family connection.

I had a lovely phone call with a lady who is becoming a good irl friend,

and received an email from my son including a lovely description from the mum, of my grandson's progress through the year. His first birthday is on Tuesday. Lots of walking on eggshells about access and contact with him. I have been patient and doing all they ask. Have a few little gifts ... tho they can wait too. We will see ...
