The main issue which has complicated things over the past week has been Bob's worsening back pain. On Thursday and Friday, he was struggling to get out of bed, and to walk to the bathroom or lounge. The GP has been incredibly helpful, and upped the pain meds significantly. But that means he's a bit woozy some of the time and cannot drive. And planned activities for the next few weeks have been severely curtailed.
I don't cope very well when the people I love are in pain, and I feel so impotent and unable to help. Thank you everyone for your concern, and the comments here, and all the emails etc. We are both grateful. Taking each day as it comes.
Yesterday evening was lovely - Bob's sister and her husband have been in Norfolk for a couple of days and came over for a meal. It was so good to chat, and laugh together.
Oh no, poor Bob, back pain is so debilitating.
ReplyDeleteIt really does leave you without any energy
DeleteI'm so sorry that Bob's back pain is worsening. Hope the pain medications work and he will feel better, soon. In the meantime, take it easy and spend time relaxing at home.
