If we ever needed purrs-Update
Lesley wrote: Not a bad day- Dave is better in himself and I have managed more or less to calm down... ****ed off first thing, had to call work and ended up talking to someone who's major concern was that I am only allowed 2 days for "Family emergencies" so I could have 3 days unpaid leave for which she was insistent I had to understand I would have to pay back- she got a bit upset when I said something along the lines of "So if he dies I get 6 days compassionate leave and won't that solve all your litt;e problems" Got to the hospital.....Not in the best of moods after that through to be fair my actual line manager was sweet Anyway Dave is on a fluid restriction. Here we meet an irony- they want him to eat more he doesn't wanna because if he eats he normally has coffee/water with his meal but he's being rationed.... Nearly killed one junior doctor= the whole thing seems to me to be that because Dave was born (And yes some doctor did have to somewhat block his copybook by having to ask what "Congenital" meant) with -so called disability that some people seem to think he ain't bright and as for me... They keep asking me if I am his carer...and no one seems to believe that yes, when he was ill I had to do that )as he would do for me if needed) I am his partner It's the F***king 21st century and they seem unable to deal with the idea that a person they define as 'diabled " as able to have a normal relationship One charming little medical student has said that they can rehome him (Note somehow I never got mentioned) to a nice flat in Hackney where the shops are just round the corner and he'll fit right in with all the elderly and disabled.... Dave does not want ro be put in a ghetto least of all in Hackney as he said it\s not like a nice flat in say Chelsea and they are saying he wouldn't be allowed pets because their line seems to be that he isn't able to look after a pet ie we would have to send the Furballs to a local kill shelter Anyway I have had ebough of this ignorant prat Tomorrow more tests maybe know tomorrow- he's almost certainly going to be in for a week or so Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs Update you when I have more news |

We're not married-nearly smacked a guy about that yesterday I was having a break in the pub (Before any says anything-where Dave is, to go for a break means risking the local population of verbally if you're lucky abusive wino's to get to a MacDonalds whereas the pub provided me with some peace and quiet and a huge and much needed lunch! When I saw it I thought I wouldn;t be able to eat all of it but I HAD to eat something, next thing I know I am chasing the last pea and wondering if they would notice if I licked the pattern off the plate- You cannot imagine how much I needed that! There isb't a lot of point in me getting ill as he gets better ) and this old couple were talking about how people today don't get married they just live together and if things gets bad " They just run out" and I am sitting there thinking of saying " So we never stood up in church and vowed for richer and poorer and in sickness and in health but I'm here and I'm doing it!!" Just changed keyboards so am now able to type!!! I'm glad you got a good meal under your belt! You have to take care of yourself to be able to be there for Dave. Purrs continuing. -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki.

First, you know you don't have to worry about anyone here giving you a hard time about relaxing at a pub for awhile. You need to take some time away for yourself during this time, otherwise you could make yourself sick. So take time for you during this. The cats are in the process of packaging up several boxes of litterbox offerings for your coworker as well as inept junior doctors who apparently have negative-zero bedside manners. I have to warn you, however, I am very unorganized when it comes to mailing packages so Dave will probably be out of the hospital by the time I get the package mailed. .... And Ginger-lyn, if you should get a box of litterbox offerings from me, just realized I screwed up and sent the wrong package to your address. Don't take it personally ;0 Purrs, headbutts and hugs, Julie, Hobbes, Sam, Lacey and Barnabus |

she got a bit upset when I said something along the lines of "So if he dies I get 6 days compassionate leave and won't that solve all your litt;e problems" Haha! That's a good one. You don't want to mess with someone who's just looked mortality right in the face... Nearly killed one junior doctor= Hang in there Lesley. This medical system is so frustrating. I felt like I had to be on guard all of the time for my sig. other too, since he was not able to watch out for himself. It's exhausting by itself, and then on top of getting little or no sleep -- just know that you are going to be on edge for awhile. Take care of yourself first. That's hard because it feels selfish, but you have to be in top form to help him. Don't skip any meals and make sure you eat lots of healthy things. Do your best and try not to kill any doctors -- ha! I know Dave appreciates everything, even if he doesn't realize that right now. I know my sig. other months later realized all that I did for him while he was in the hospital and recuperating. Take care, and good work on finding out that cleaning the living room is better than tossing and turning in bed... Rhonda |
