One Day at a time here

One Day at a time here

hello everyone 😎

Was not sure where to write this

thank you @Oaktree , @Ru-bee for thinking of me today 😍

my results from the doctor was not really good

  • my Kidney function have decreased to 17%
  • my Liver and diabetes levels are up
  • I have Osteoporosis which i will need medication as my bone density has decreased because of the kidney disease
  • they believe that the Liver function is up because of the kidney disease
  • Kidney disease affects every part of your body

Re: One Day at a time here

Gentle hugs and prayers from me also Dear Shazzie. @Shaz51

You both have a lot on with physical and mental health issues.

It would be a huge change to adapt to for both of you and the kids.

Has he said things like this before?

Do you believe it is related to a mental health episode?

It sounds as if you are very worried.

Have you any ideas how you would manage if it came to pass?

Its usually lots of little steps.

Can you simplify things to the essentials, you will need? Although I really hope he can surf his complicated feelings and you both can come through together.

Hugs again

Thank you Sis @Appleblossom

I think it is a mental health issue

He has not been this bad for years and he has never said that before

We have a doctors appointment this Thursday as he is experiencing a physical problem as well and to inquire about his new depression medication

He is a lot better today which is so good

Re: One Day at a time here

Oh @Shaz51 😭

Dearest mamabear, that is so, so hard. I'm so sorry to hear that this is happening for you hun. I know Mr Shaz has not been good lately and sometimes that means extreme or irrational ways of thinking can ramp up. I hope you are taking things slowly/step by step and doing what you can to look after yourself, including reaching out for some extra support as needed.

Just in case it might help - Relationships Australia is a good resource.

Sending you SO MANY gentle hugs hun 💜

Re: One Day at a time here

I am so sorry to hear that things have not been good for you @Shaz51..

You have been a very resilient person with being the primary carer for Mr Shaz and your serious physical health problems as well as wider family dynamics..

Remarkably, you find the time, strength and compassion to constantly support other people on the forums and facilitate social conversations..

I hope you can find some glimmers of light in the support of the people on the forums..

I hope things settle down for you..

Sitting with you
