That is so true about so much, for everyone, not just about relationships either, we all take things too much for granted, don't realise what we have, until it is threatened.

partner at long last will be coming home next week. it has been a constant battle 10 weeks of what seemed like pure hell and never thought i would see this day come, still unclear as to the final outcome and they are bringing in backup in case partner is unable to manage so next week is going to be tough for both of us.

So glad to hear your partner is going to be allowed home at last, that is really good news. I know it's difficult to care for someone straight out of hospital though, so please make sure you take care of yourself and do, as Sue says, make a fuss and ask for more help and support for both of you if you need it.
 
Really pleased your partner is coming home at last @mikeydt1. Hope everything goes well and you are both able to cope well - and that the extra support is put in place so that you are both comfortable and happy.
 
good news partner is now home but bombshell dropped by doctor sadly my partner is at end of life and palliative care has been set up, it could be any where from weeks to months.

at the other end i had suffered a bleed MCV test revealed it while partner was in hospital and treatment started, i have bowel disease and warned this could happen, seeing surgeon in due course and as for BG i neglected this with everything going on but was checked by community nurses and surprised as it was well within range of 5.7 then again i have been doing more exercises but food wise nothing has been altered.
 
I'm sorry to hear this Mikey
 
Very sorry to hear that. I hope you have happy and gentle moments in amongst the sadness.
