Dear Alva, you don’t know the case. This is not something that can be let go. It’s of extreme importance.

Way Hope dh is feeling better.

Alva -hope things turn around for you and this year becomes a good one. We always had the same limit. If a dog bites a person that's the end of the road for that dog. Hard though.

Prayers, Barb. it is amazing what reconstructive work they can do these days. Tubes in the body, very generally speaking, have similar structures. I hope that is the end of the procedures for him.

DH will have 3rd renal surgery this week. They will take a piece of his appendix and rebuild his damaged ureter. Not really a whine. Just a "OMG, they can do that?".

Wish us luck.

Very sorry to hear this for you, sounhappy.
At this point, if this is something you can let go of I would do so. The expense must be astounding after all these months, and getting a reveral reversed perhaps more onerous than anything is worth.
This is sad. Wish you the best.

I want to press restart button on 2024. I really do. So much I don't like. I know I probably say this every new year when something goes wrong, but this year I MEAN IT. Good friend in hospital with emphysema, comes home to having to face down putting her dear 18 year old doggie mercifully to sleep. A spot of bother for me and I am such a PSTD mess with doctors at all. Weather seems consistently dreary. Sweet Foster Dog we placed has, after 3 months bitten a child, and for us a bit to a person is kind of the end game. World of fostering has kind of gone South with a few friends.
I don't know. It's just not my favorite year so far, and it is a "POLITCAL year" and I fear the division that can cause among kind people/good friends.
Everyone stay safe, stay healthy, be good to yourselves. Hang in there with a little help from your friends.

Way,

I hope that your DH feels better soon. Sending hugs to both of you.

I can’t imagine living in a place with lots of snow. If we happen to get a few flurries, which is only once in a blue moon, the entire city shuts down.

Invisible, I know you probably won’t because you sound like a good person but walking away sounds acceptable in this situation.

I’m so sorry, InvisibleOne. It has to hurt enormously and I bet that it’s getting harder and harder for you to endure. No one would blame you if you were to walk away.

Just feeling “extra special” today thanks to Dad’s early morning text of “ I hate you. “

Nothing like sacrificing your life for the care of a parent, only for that parent to be a cruel as possible.

I wonder if there’s anything else in life as painful as your parent betraying & abusing you. I wonder how much more I can take.

May all caregivers be treated with love, compassion and appreciation.

Thank you, ITRR. You are an angel for expressing concern for a caregiver’s needs. I do the same and ask caregivers how they are doing.

I am sure that before I was a caregiver that I didn’t fully understand how much caregivers went through.

Neither of my parents were caregivers to their parents, so I had no frame of reference as to what caregiving entailed. I learned firsthand just how difficult it was. It’s the toughest job that I’ve ever had.

Gosh, I remember working two jobs for a while when I was younger and it still wasn’t as exhausting as being a full time caregiver.
