Val and I were married today.
Congratulations to you both. Sounds like you managed to create a very special day for you both.
Big hugs

GP does little for Valerie. Came to give her the Covid jab doesn't even pass on prescriptions for reducing Dexamethasone. Hasn't seen Valerie for the Brain Cancer. Valerie is Bed Bound so doctor would have to come to our home.
Macmillan has known Valerie for 6 years. Apart from attending consultations and listening on the phone (8 till 8 not 2 in the morning when Valerie has panic attacks) they do little, "we don't leave the hospital". Passed us onto the CAB for the attendance allowance.
Very saddened/surprised/disappointed by Valeries health care and the whole system.
Valerie woke at 6:00 am, said some things I couldn't understand, fell back to sleep.
I woke her again at 11:00 am for meds and breakfast.
She refused her breakfast, I didn't force her.
She has a straight ahead gaze, didn't recognise me or speak.
She then went back to sleep.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
