I have so many questions concerning my hubby. I know some of you have experienced caring for a sick hubby so I am turning to you for some help.
SITUATION: My hubby was diagnosed with cancer in the Fall. He was given five or six chemo treatments. I forget how many. I know that it is a difficult treatment but here are my concerns:
-
My hubby claims he is very tired all the time. He sits on the lazy boy chair all day and night. Often he falls asleep.
-
The doctor told him to do a little exercise everyday.
-
He has no interest in anything. My son comes over and he falls asleep.
-
When we eat a meal together he doesn’t put two words together unless I put pressure on him.
SO HERE’S MY QUESTION!
WHAT SHOULD I BE DOING? SHOULD I LEAVE HIM ALONE? LET HIM SIT ON THE CHAIR AND DO NOTHING????? I DO GET OUT. I STARTED SWIMMING A FEW TIMES A WEEK AND I DO GO SHOPPING. ALL OUR FRIENDS ARE IN FLORIDA. I GET SO SAD AND FED UP WATCHING HIM ON THE CHAIR. SHOULD I JUST ACCEPT THAT HE IS A VERY SICK MAN AND NOT EXPECT HIM TO DO ANYTHING? DO I ENCOURAGE HIM STRONGLY TO GET UP AND OUT? IS THIS EXPECTING TOO MUCH? DO I GO OUT LONGER????
I DO HAVE MANY HOBBIES I WORK ON BUT I STILL GET SO UPSET WATCHING HIM.
I AM HOPING FOR SOME SUGGESTIONS. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE. I AM AT MY WIT’S END.
