Just keep thinking that if your OH doesn't go into respite now a crisis may happen where there is no choice. You really need this break Pam.

Hi pamann, I would think someone from the CH could come and collect him, or arrange transport. When Robert first went into Respite I didn't visit as I thought it would upset him. Hopefully the doors being locked won't be apparent to him so he won't notice. I am sure he will be well looked after and you can definitely have some ME well deserved time for yourself to recharge the batteries. Hope you have read Scarlett's thread about being Guilty. I know we all feel it, but do try and relax during your 2 weeks. I was very scared, but it is for the best, otherwise you cannot carry on looking after him. Thinking of you and send a big hug xx
Hello LynT l have left it to long to get help, trying to manage on my own, althought we have tried day care, they refused to have him back, as he tried to get out of locked doors, climbed over 6ft fence in the garden, he refused to go out with carer's from crossroads, so l have tried with help, but because my hubby is so bodily fit, never had any illnesses, its just AD, the CH may refuse to have him, 4 homes that had a room refused to take him. fingers crossed they will be able to manage him.
