Been a strange year for me, my girl hit the dizzy height in her sats, my other girl has been practically bed bound, 24/7 care, no life for either and after 8 years, a Smiths song spring's to mind. It is so so hard caring for those you love and adore, a torture in one sense a relief in the other when they have a good day.. For me, well it's been good, no it hasn't.. I just live day to day, will always be her for my daughter, she is my reason. We have such a happy life behind the turmoil of devastation of being and doing this for 8 years.. I ain't moping, I have a gleeson score of 7 for prostrate Cancer, we are not immune to anything, we can never shout the odds because when the chips are down, we do what we do.. I love my girls, been a strange world but we just get on with it.. Waffling here like, share your highs and lows too..
God bless you and your family Joe. Sounds like you have been through some **** that would break a lot of people. Stay strong man. X
Feel for you Joe ... been an eventful year for me ... in July I got made redundant whilst awaiting an op for a stent ... which quickly spiralled into a quadruple bypass ... whilst coming to visit me the day after my op my mother-in-law took a fall which seemed innocuous at the time but just last week has been found to be caused by a double aneurysm, one of which contains a clot ... she's now in hospital and they will be deciding on how to treat her on Wednesday ... so my other half has had a fcukin' awful time of it ... ... on the positive, have waltzed back into a job ... contracting with a major organisation in the construction sector and really enjoying what I'm doing ... and appear to have had a very good recovery from the op ... just need some good news on the mother-in-law this week and we can start to hope that 2018 will be a whole lot better ... hope it is for you too mate
