It had to happen #BlogJune 24

I woke up this morning with a scratchy throat, feeling dreadful. I sent my boss a text and went back to sleep until 11am. Do I have a cold or COVID? No. As I said to Fiona, I think it was just that I’d been away and had to trust things were ok, came back and saw for myself that Tony is doing well, got a few things sorted and then – with the pressure off – my body said stop! The reality is I’ve been living on my nerves, and little unbroken sleep, for probably a year.

I’m immensely grateful I was away when he went into permanent care and, as much as it hurts my heart, I can see how much better he is with 24/7 professional care. The picture below is Tony with a Puzzli puzzle I got him; I thought it would keep him busy for days … he was finished it in 3 hours.

    it’s a very hard time, I’m so glad you have all that pressure off and can focus on Tony and yourself x It can be stressful and life altering becoming a loved ones carer, let alone someone with a terminal diagnosis, let the professionals do their thing while you focus on the time you have xoxoxo Lots of love to you, keep us updated!
