After all this time, and with the fairly recent run of disapointments behind us, Orthopedics at Southampton Hospital phoned today to confirm a date for B's hip replacement
( Read more... )
I hope B will finally be assigned an exact date for when the surgery will be done. I know from experience how exhausting this "back and forth" can be for patients and their families. 💖
He has a date, which was confirmed on the phone, but will have to wait for the paperwork to reach him as to if that date is for a preop assessment or the final date.
We are trying to be as supportive as we can, but B is exhausted and in pain all the time as well as being his own worst enemy. And yes.we are exhausted about it as well. It might sound selfish, but I am more than ready to give up on supporting him at the expense of my own health and well being. I love the man, but he has been stretching his luck of late :p
You don't sound at all selfish. When someone won't do what they need to do for their own good, doing for them all the time just makes it easier for them not to follow the doctor's orders. Your health is just as important as his, so do take care of yourself :p
