2 years ago today I came home the stroke rehab unit post my stroke. Monday just gone I mentioned this mile stone to my husband. Very sadly
my husband passed away in another part of the same rehab unit this morning.
He had a very long spell of failing health. I took the phone call this morning from the nurse caring for my husband last night, who was the same nurse who cared for the night before I was discharged
Finally when I was allowed home after my stroke my husband had been admitted to hospital 3 days before. I was alone at home for a month before he was well enough to be discharged. How strange is life?
I am so sorry to read your post this morning and send you my deepest condolences. It's an awful time with this virus and makes it so hard to grieve. I hope you have someone there with you Kay but know we are all here for you.
How sad I was to hear your news. Life is hard and odd. There are many, many readers who don’t know you personally but who, from the unique situation that they find themselves living in, have shared some of your last few years. When your loss is shared with these friends then I’m sure they will moved in a similar way. As well as the support from your online friends here, I hope you also have the help and practical support you need to get through these difficult times. Pat x
Thank you so much Ann. Nobody here but me. I value all the online support an encouragement this site gives. There's no one who can be with me. But like a lot of people I have friends and family who phone etc as often as they can. x
Kay - my heartfelt sympathies to you at this sad time. I know that none of us 'know' each other but we have grown to form our own friendships along the way thanks to this wonderful site. Thinking of you - Brenda x
