Thanks Bridget

Everyone keeps telling me I'm strong but I'm loosing it day by day. I spent most of yesterday crying.

Anyway see what happens, he's gone back to haematology department now.

Thanks

Hi Lynn

My husband has mm, he is in hospital and has been for 3 months now. I'm disabled with carers of my own. I live in Doncaster and Michael is in Sheffield and I get to him between 4 and 5 days a week. I cannot drive, others have to drive me. I have alot of disabilities which I won't name because over time you learn to just carry…[Read more]

Hi All

Here is the up to date….[b]Nothing we don't all ready know[/b]:-S

[b]Another consultant did the rounds so still got to talk to Michael's.
No way can he come home because if he did he would be back in like a shot 10 times worse where he may not survive![/b]:'-(

We also got told his arm is the main source of infections. Then he…[Read more]

Welcome Kathleen

Roz

Thanks everyone

Tom your hugs are great. As you can see by the time I'm not doing alot of resting. I'm just thinking about another long day ahead, where I may or may not get some anawers.
My carer starts at 7.30am and I leave at 9am but still I cannot sleep. Deep inside I know everyone is right but convincing Michael will be hard. It's going…[Read more]

Good luck, keep smiling,
All the best

Thanks All
Michaels nurse phoned again last night. She tells me I'm going in the right direction, trying to explain to Michael that when we speak to the consultant he will more than likely be refused to come home.
Do you know? I know it is the right answer but when I'm with him and he tells me to get him home, I always question it!
Michael…[Read more]

Thanks everyone you help keep me sane!
Michael is talking more reality wise today! (Think you all will understand that) He slept through just about all of my visiting time, but at least I know he has had his bloods.
I'll try and keep going. Been told I'm strong but I'm finding it hard now every day. One of his sisters blames me. She thinks I'm…[Read more]

Thanks Tom AND Min

Michaels nurse phoned again last night. She's keeping an eye on me. Having listened to her I don't think Michael will be coming home. His Myeloma is improving but his infection tolerance is not!

I've just got to work out that I'm not to blame for putting him in hospital, Is it better that he is still here but we are apart…[Read more]

Thank you

Never got to speak to consultant. Michael never got his blood, its down below 7. I don't know what's happening any more till I can talk to consultant just know he's got a nasty infection in line, his chest may be infected and his arm is setting him back. Plus he needs his blood.

Keep holding on but we are both finding it hard…[Read more]

Thanx

If possible going to speak to his consultant this afternoon. This will mean Michael comes home with pallative care until he passes away.

Love Roz

Hi All

Been to see Michael today. He is back at Hallamshire. He is not in the haemotolagy ward though cos they are full up. [b]He is not very good at all[/b] got more infections plus not drinking so you all know the confusion he is giving. I think I'm loosing him and I'm scared.

All the best to you all
Roz

Hi All
Thanks for replying. Michael has moved to Northeren General Michelle just for op then back to Hallamshire.
He had op yesterday, the staff just tell me he is doing fine. Michael doesn't answer his mobile. So I'm no wiser to when he goes back to Hallamshire to be retreated for his myeloma.

Let you know how things go when I find out.
All…[Read more]

Hi Sorry you've got some pain
All the best with your skeletal survey
Roz

Thanks all

Phoned the other hospital last night to see how Michael is, and how long he will be there; due to me finding it hard to visit. While he is in a awkward hospital, (Its hills and more hills, not suitable for wheelchairs)
Anyway they didn't drain it as planned they did another ultra sound!! The sister on the ward said no idea how long…[Read more]

Welcome home, Welcome.

I'll try my best to ask these sorts of questions.

Thanks for hug too.
