My family tell me they are always there for us if we need help.
I asked for help when my husband fell. They were busy.
we spent 48 hours without sleep in the hospital. Nothing sinister was found.
Family were very upset and repeated “”Keep us informed” “Let us know if you need help.”
The incident was repeated. I am 73 My husband 90 He weighs 14 stone. I can’t lift him on my own.
Again the family offered sympathy and insisted that I let them know if we need help I asked what sort of help could they give. They said help with shopping
I explained that I had all of my shopping delivered.
Said it would helpful if they could phone and have a chat with their dad say once a week.
They said “yes of course”
Its been a month since we heard from them.
