[quote="koikkeril"]at this rate we may get our wedding anniversary. We wont be doing much like you cali, having a party as there isn't enough of us, but any ideas gratefully received,[/quote]
You could have a party - it doesn't need masses of people, just those around you, music, good food, cheerful flowers, a balloon or two, and a cake with fancy icing.
I do hope you make it. It would be so good. |

 Absolutely right, I will have that party! I will get the cake down him somehow LOL, its the 14th June. Its not long to go, but as you know anything can happen! I think he is here to stay. The hospital has reduced his morphine from 3g to 2g, he talks a lot of gibberish, this makes me real sad. I hope by reducing the morphine he will be more alert.
Thanks for your advice, if we are lucky it wont be a bed party!! but in the garden, just mum, brother me and hubby. God Bless you, koik |

I don't know about that ray of sunshine, my husband wouldn't think that when I'm ramming that food down his throat. Well Sunday has gone again and we are still kicking our feet harder than ever, hubby now sits at the table and eats on his own, sometimes as confused like hell but eats and drinks what ever he is given.... Cannot for the life of me understand what is going on here. The visiting doctor yesterday has now took off his urine catheter so now he is only attached to the morphine pump! Hurray, we can start walking further. From not standing up for 2months to now being able to walk 100m isn't bad is it? I will have to get those dancing shoes out for him on the 14th, I think we will see a little rock and roll let alone a cake, one thing for sure, he will eat it!
Huggies to all, God Bless, koik

Hi, Koikkeril - isn't the body an amazing thing. Just when you think it is collapsing, it sets out to keep going!
You have been through so much that it is wonderful to hear that there is progression towards a normality. I wonder how much of the confusion is the morphine.
I hope you had the same beautiful sunny day that we had.
Keep well yourself. |

It is amazing to read your post and then worry about my own journey down this road. I have lifted your name up and will pray for your anniversary. I know it will mean so much to the both of you. Thank you for your reply to my post.

Today is our wedding Anniversary, I tried hard to keep him here, but my darling husband is going to sleep soon. He has had two serious attacks today and the hospital has said they wont let him suffer with pain. Please pray for me and my husband as my heart is breaking. I will be there holding my husbands hand.
Love to Cali and all those in this dreadful painful situation.
Koik |

Oh no -- I am devastated for you to hear this news. He DID make it to your anniversary sweetie and he did it for you. Yes, hold his hand and comfort him. We'll be here holding you in our prayers and sending warm comfort to such a genuinely special couple.
My heart is breaking for you. I well remember that time and it saddens me greatly to know you have arrived at this point.
God bless you and your dear husband.
Hugs,
