Thank you
@Jezzer , lovely to talk to you, Jan.
I had a bit of a varied career, but for the last 20 years I primarily worked with deaf babies, children, young people and their families. Often the children would have other complex needs. I was in my element working with families with newly diagnosed babies and children.
The work you and I did could be challenging, upsetting but oh so very rewarding and how lucky we were to be able to go home knowing we had made a difference. I was fortunate that I worked for a national children’s charity, for you, being subject to so many financial restraints must have made your job difficult.
I consider myself very fortunate to have had employment that I loved.
For the first time in my life, with my husbands dementia I’m at a loss. I’ve always been organised, efficient and capable.... where has this woman gone? I feel at a total loss, in a state of flux.... I have no idea what will happen tonight, tomorrow, next week....
I’m in a situation I can’t control and my fear is that it will never get any easier. All that is steady in my life is that I love my husband and will do all I can to care for him.
Take care Jan, and thank you xx
