I decided to type out some ideas with bullet points for the social worker on Monday.
My partner has spent much of the day trying to fix his bike - which may be a puncture, may be a valve, probably needs electricians tape, could be anything, or nothing - but it has kept him out of the house as he bumbles around.
He seems to have little thoughts, memories or ideas on what has been going on this last couple of weeks.
1) I move out if I can find somewhere
2) Social Services help locate a sheltered living situation that my partner would accept.
3) We move, with a support package, to a larger property where he can have his own room with his own en suite and space for a TV.
3) is my favourite at the moment, as it would mean a reasonable standard of living - we can between us afford about £900 rent per month, if I am careful. HIs ensuite would release me from having to share the bathroom with the contents of his stoma bag, and I might not be able to hear him in the night, and might get some sleep. If his TV was in his room - I would not be subjected to the neverending dross that he watches.
Obviously, I am still trying to work things out in my own mind. It has been a worrying and dramatic time, and I need, I think, to calm down a bit and try to get my thoughts into some sort of order........
