Hello everyone,
My O.H and I had a review appointment at the memory clinic this morning.
I had sent the community nurse a letter detailing how I thought my O H had deteriorated in the last 12 months and suggesting a possible change in medication . I did this as my O.H would accusing me of compiling a ‘ blame list’ if I spoke out in front of him.
He said he needed the toilet and whilst there the nurse said we could have a chat, we did and she said the doctor might consider adding to his existing medication, a tablet beginning with M ( sorry didn’t catch what it was ). Husband returned, nurse was chatting to him and he was so pleasant…..it beggers belief! Yes, he said, I’m fine, no problems, sleeping about 7 hours a night ( more like 3 ), walking every day and jogging a couple of hundred yards………more like sitting on the settee! My letter was describing a totally different person, I am now concerned that she will think I am making a mountain out of a mole hill!
We stopped off for a coffee afterwards and saw his sister, who I invited her to join us. The change in my husband was like Jekyll and Hyde, bye Mr Nice Guy. He doesn’t have a lot of time for his sister and the atmosphere was very frosty. I ended up making excuses ( time up in the car park ) and leaving but I so wanted a short time of ‘ normal social ‘ interaction.
Fingers crossed, I tried.
