On the up again
Hi Ladies, thank you for your good advice on my 'worn out' blog. I will try online shopping, never even thought of it (bit of a dinosaur). My doctor reminded me to take a mild sleeping tablet because lack of sleep did make things worse. I have now had 2 good night's sleep. I think I was just trying to be super woman and it wasn't working. My partner is still improving daily and I confessed to my doctor that I'm worried every minute of the day that he's going to have a heart attack. He explained that with his illness (cardio myopathy), it's not like that, he will get warning signs and needs to heed them. I was also not coping with getting all the housework done, but I will prioritise and the rest can wait. I reached out to some friends and family and two of these have already bought some meals around for us. I never wanted to bother people too much, but they said they wouldn't have offered if they didn't mean it. So, as you can see, all of your advice was right on the money, I can't thank you enough. As for mirrors, well, I was never a beauty queen at the start of this journey, my partner has told me I am still beautiful to him. and that's all that matters. I do realise how fortunate I am, I just got bogged down with the weight of things. What we are going through is a speed bump in the big scheme of things, and we will work on getting better together. Once again, thank you, it's so good to have people who know what it's like, your support is appreciated, big hugs to everyone,
Hazel xx
