Hello all.
I feel ashamed that I have been away for so long, and only posted the odd thing over the last few years.
A lot has happened though. My husband has Emphysema. COPD and now heart problems. He spent 4 months in Papworth hospital recently and has now been home for 4 weeks, and I am just hoping he doesn't have to go back in and be in there over Christmas. He is in and out of hospital all the time.
He is on oxygen 24 hours a day, he can manage to get to the loo and the kitchen but that is all.
I have to do everything for him right from showering him in a morning to getting him to bed at night.
Please don't think I am moaning, I aren't. I would do anything for him, after all he has looked after myself and the girls all these years.
I think at times my hobby of card making has been my only relaxation.
Some days he will be asleep most of the day, just waking to eat and drink.
But I still get some good conversations out of him and he is aware of everything that is going on.
I remember most of you though there are a couple of new names.
