What no tablets
Posted , 4 users are following.
last night I forgot to take my medications and my problem I have is waking nightmares. I split my drugs and take the ones that make me sleep before bed. Tramadol Citalopram and Amytrtptalene to name a few so I was feeling exhausted in the morning and had to take my night tablets in the morning with all my morning drugs. So today I have looked like something the cat brought in.
I am not allowed to handle my medications so my Wife is responsible for my medications, because of my Chronic Pain and Depression. because I have severe Depressions sometimes.
So tonight I am back on course with my medications. I suppose I should have said something to Hazel last night, I have a poor memory and have to sometimes rely on others as far as medications are concerned.
I wish I was taking more responsabilities for my actions, sad to say my medications prevent me remembering some things

I'm going though the beginning stages of the same thing you are talking about, struggling to organize my thoughts and taking my vitamins etc. Reading and writing are getting harder. I took care of my husband's needs the last three years of his life; he had cancer, I was honored to do it and I am sure Hazel is as well.
I understand, but be kind to your you. Don't beat yourself up.

It is interesting. I have had many friends who lost their husbands. The ones who had good realtionships, loved seeing and hearing about other's happy relationships. The folks that were unhappy in marriage, were angry when they heard about happy loving relationships.
It is a true blessing to have respectful, helpful, kind, intellegent men in our lives. I miss my husband, he died too young, but he was a thoughtful honest, ethical man and never abusive. We need more men llike that.
Thank you for sharing your joy with me. It was refreshing.

Ah, Bob, dear, and were the positions reversed? If Hazel needed help with meds?
What then?
You would not give it a second thought. You would be more than willing to ensure she was "cared " for in that respect
I assume you have been married many years as I have? Such marriages last because of unselfishness, born out of love, Bob, It is sharing the load, working together in all areas of the union
There are times, circumstances, we we might need to lean on each other for help, support. Such support is given freely, gladly, Bob
That's not sad, Bob
That's love, dear

Been married now for near on forty years.
Time passes so quick when we are pensioners, still so much to see and do
