Re: My life partner has Bipolar ii

Thanks @Determined  @Shaz51 

 

Re: My life partner has Bipolar ii

ohhh not a good day today , can not do anything right even though he agreed , now it is all my fault Smiley Sad

Re: My life partner has Bipolar ii

hello @Former-Member , checking in to see how you are going xx

Re: My life partner has Bipolar ii

Moving slowly here @Shaz51, trying to do something constructive each day.

 

At present the  focus is on doing things that will help Mr Darcy live as well as possible for whatever time he has (and we are hopeful this new chemo will hold things at bay for a while). We have booked a short trip away as he is managing ok and not had any major side effects this far.

 

Nevertheless, I am acutely aware of the need to prepare for the future and am concurrently trying to learn small disciplines to improve myself in the areas of every day living I struggle with (which are balanced out with Mr D's strengths). Motivation is not one of my strong points.

 

In all of this, I do have so much to be thankful for. Mr D perked up a bit this week, has not been crying so much and was keen to do some work in the garden and finish a garden bed that we had made a start on previously.

I am acutely aware of the need to prepare for the future --- that sounds soo awww my friend , we know it will happen but please don't think about it too much xx

it is ok to prepare ourselves , like me with my mum who keeps on talking about going 

and mr shaz wants to go before me , in his own words -- " if I go , He goes too " awwwwwwwwww
