I haven’t posted here in a while, but I have been following a few posts. On the 4th of June my husband was finally relieved of this terrible disease. He had a massive brain bleed and seizure on the 31st of May. He was taken to the hospital where he held on until the 4th June. The hospital staff were so lovely and also provided me and a family member with sleeping arrangements in his room. His heart was so strong, even given the other issues . My family and friends have been an awesome support, and I am so grateful to them all. Even though he had been in care for 4 years, I feel so lonely - he’s not there if I need to go and see him at any time. I had a holiday booked and paid for, so am going to still go, hopefully it will help me heal.

So sorry for your loss. I hope you can enjoy your time away, at least a change of scene may give you a break. Take care of yourself.

I am so sorry for your loss Di. Such a long and lonely road for you, you really took such good care of your husband over the years of this dreadful illness.
Wishing you strength in your grief.

Di I am so sorry to read this. Sending you a hug.

The care home took great care of him and you over the years.

I hope you get something out of your holiday.

When our son died (stillborn) the priest suggested a holiday, and I realise that the circumstances are completely different but suspect he said this a lot, as he said the change of scenery would help us rebuild. I hope this is how it works for you.
