Ann I am so sorry you have had such a terrible and worrying time., I do hope your OH will continue on the road to recovery. We all need a shoulder to cry on from time to time. It really does help to get things off your chest and share your concerns. Remember that you are just as important as anyone else on these boards, and there is always someone here to offer support. <3

Hello Anne
Sorry to hear you have been having such a rotten time and hope things will improve for you and your OH soon

When it all gets a bit too much, come and have a moan on the boards. They'll be plenty of people on here to lend a sympathetic ear and send you a cyber hug.

Thinking of you

Dear Another Ann in Glos

Hello

All of us on here have been through very difficult times at one point or another.

It is so good that you felt able to come on the boards and they helped you.

Having someone to talk to is often a safety valve.

Plus, we all can offer practical advice.


For now, be kind to yourself.

Take very gentle care
My very best wishes to you and your husband.
Love Elizabeth,
xx

Hello Anne.
Sorry to hear you and your OH have had it so rough this past six months. Now you have posted on here it will be easier for you to pour your heart out and everyone will listen to you. Talking about your worries and problems is better than bottling them all up. I hope you are both getting lots of help and things start to improve for you both. Take care and talk about it.

Hi Anne

It's a shame you didn't feel able to offload to us all when you needed support but I'm glad you have told us now of your situation and I hope your o.h. will continue to improve in health so things won't be so difficult for you both.

There's always someone around to listen, I know as I have needed an ear sometimes.

Take care, onwards and upwards....

Thankyou for asking today, I have just managed to get onto the pc. I have had a good day today because OH has only just decided to wake up. (pc is in bedroom) Its the antibotics he is on and the pain killers so I let him sleep some days. He will watch the news for a bit then potter up the garden. Its the first time we planted some veg. when he was in hospital all he kepted saying is when I get out of here I might plant some veg. I got son just to dig up a narrow strip and OH planted sprouts, caulis, runner beans and tomatoe plants. On the days I let him sleep. Its getting the balance right on how much I let him sleep It does me good as well just to sit and read without having to worry about him. I thought I would be spending a lot of time looking after OH this year and in the winter I bought a swing seat with a shade for in the garden, (half price) all my kids laughed at me and said why you got that for its winter. They are not laughing now when I can just go and sit in the garden with my book and not worry about dragging other garden chairs into the shade.

Hope everyone else is doing good today.

Anne...they say sleep is one of the best healers, but it's nice to hear that he is enjoying his garden also.

I have also got a garden swing which I love and never sit anywhere else when I am outdoors.

Let's hope we have a good summer :-D

I'm sorry to hear of your troubles, but it's good that you feel support here.

How lovely that your OH had an interest in the garden, even when he couldn't get out there and I'm pleased that it's a place of calm for you now.

Look after yourself.

Hello AnotherAnneinGlos:)

Good to see you posting again.:-)
What a brilliant idea getting the seat in the winter, it was all settled and sorted ready for now.
We're waiting for our decking to start, it should have been 30th June this Mon, but they have put it back to 14th July...once thats done l can buy plants and seating/table etc...can't wait, not sure there will be room for a swing seat though :-|

Yep they say sleep is a good healer:) Hope you have loads of lovely veggies:)
