It just keeps coming.

Bryan is going back to the hospital.  His doctor seems to think that him being admitted again is the only way for him to get the 2 units of red cells that he needs. 

I was so happy happy about his platelets being higher last week, even though I knew his red cells were still low.  Now the excitement is gone, and I am just tired and scared and sad.  He has to sit down in the shower because he is so exhausted from the low red cells, combined with nausea from the chemo. 

I am so tired.  I had to work all weekend and even when I have time off it is spent taking care of DH.  I feel so selfish, but I am just so exhausted.  This has been going on for months and just when I thought there was some positive movement here we are, going back to the hospital.

I miss my husband,  I miss our life together, and I miss feeling strong and happy and confident.  

Sorry for venting, I just needed to get it out, and I don't want to take it out on Bryan.

Re: It just keeps coming.

  • I'm so sorry. I can't even imagine being in your shoes right now. Please feel free to vent all you want here.
  • I'm sorry Beth.  I'm certain your feelings are all very normal and valid for the situation you find yourself in.  If I had to guess I would say Bryan is probably feeling the same way - missing you, missing your life together.  I hope this trip to the hospital is the last you'll need to make. ((hugs))
