My life partner has Bipolar ii

@Determined

Thanks Bro, still early days and Mr Darcy is much improved since infection cleared, possibly a bit hyped up, is not sleeping well and is perhaps overdoing things.

@Former-Member Just checking to see how you are going - sending carer hugs 🤗 and remember to find the good coffee and the good hot cholocate when you need some time out for you with a quality hot beverage - they calm me down and comfort me so much - as does a hot water bottle and also my cats

how is your new dog going ? Hope he/she is fitting in well and settling and not too much work for you both

@Sophie1 we have 2 dogs, the little fellow is 4 months old, his mum is 3, they are a joy and I am so glad we have them.. They do have their own sleeping crate which they were used to and has been handy with Mr D being unwell so I have kept using it, but we do let them in on the bed after an early morning pit stop as well as at other times. They were a bit of work as the pup fractured his leg but things are better now, although I suspect that toilet training might need extra vigilance when we get some more rain ...

Felt a little twinge of sadness while waiting for Mr Ds first round of chemo. He is so courageous.
