My husband got a nasty cold that developed into bronchitis. After 2 days dealing with him I got sick too. Another bronchitis, 3 in the last five months. No good... I know. What alternatives I have... not too many. I have help in the daytime but I need a long night sleep in a real bed for a change, and if I am sick I can't work and get worry..., if I can't work, I can't earn enough money to pay the aides and the worries multiply...
No, I don't have anyone that would help me if I don't pay, and I am depleting my retirement money paying for help. Even with that there are days that no one comes.
No, I don't have another bed and there is no room to put one in my office. There are 2 beds in the bedroom but I don't feel safe there. Bronchitis or not he is wandering and very angry.
His prescripton cost a lot of money. I sent someone to buy the meds inmediatly.
The next day I started to feel ill and called the doctor. He sent a prescription to the drugstore but I spent another day waiting for one of the aides to pick it up.
Nope, it doesn't look like Christmas... again.

Hi Diana, I am so sorry that you and Roberto are suffering like this. A decent night's sleep means so much. I hope you are feeling better now that you have your meds.
