Hi everyone, no real point other than needing to clear my head. I haven't posted very often but you've all been so supportive, thank you for that. Helped me through some dark days.
I finally had to move my partner to a long term care facility about 6 months ago. I just couldn't keep him safely at home anymore. I have to work, his family is useless and mine is too far away.
He's doing really well, we've had our good times and not so good. Having a hard time being at home with out him this week. Not really sure why. It's been a good week for us. no issues during visits, we've had a few laughs. All in all, a great week.
So why am I so down today? I miss him being here with me so badly tonight. I've been kind of teary all evening since I got home from our visit this afternoon. I was discussing his meds with the duty nurse and had to stop mid sentence, I choked right up. For what ever reason, that feeling has stuck with me. i found myself looking fondly at the marks his transfer poles have left all over the house. I guess I just feel really lost tonight.
Tomorrow will be a better day. Thanks for letting me ramble on.
