Don't give up

[Bizuk]

I am not asking or answering today, I just felt the need to say that no matter how hard it gets and it can be more than we feel we can take, please keep the faith, things will get better! I wish everyone would find the strength to fight or accept whatever comes along the way! God bless!

"Please keep the faith, things will get better"

If only that were true for everyone ☹️

I'm sorry, I know that's not what you want to hear sometimes and it feels so easy to say but after seeing some things I never thought I'd be part of without loosing my mind (my husband had to be shocked 60 times in front of me in hospital, it was a normal day when he collapsed and our lives changed forever) but ever since I have no other choice than to hope for the best. We are recently married, in our thirties and we want to start a family, which seems impossible and unfair that this happened to us. So now I could get angry with life or try to stay strong for both to get through this. I choose to stay positive. And I know it's just our story and everyone goes through their own struggle but please don't give up!

Not really a case of giving but when you run out of options keeping the faith does diddly squat.

As the wife of a man with multiple life limiting problems you wouldn't believe what we've been through in the past.

I hope everything goes well for you x

Hi Bizuk such traumatic experiences for you both. It must be so difficult at times for you and your husband. Finding the new normal can be such a challenge and overwhelming at times. I’m pleased you are able to be positive and drive forward. Remember though being strong for both of you can take its toll on your health and wellbeing so do make sure you look after yourself as well. It’s so easy to focus on everything else but you! So do make sure you have your own support systems in place. Brilliant that you are being so positive as it would be so easy to look at the negative things. Thank you for reminding us to try and be more positive. Sending lots of big hugs positive thoughts and a shed load of love to you both. Zena xx

Sorry you are having a bad time and pleased you are working with a positive hopeful attitude in the midst of it. Don't forget your own emotional health and physical health ongoing as it's easy to put self on the back burner at such times but you need to be well too to help your husband.

Hope things resolve and a family becomes an option for you as you wish, give it time you are both young, all is not lost. best wishes. X

Keep the faith is the same as F*** It this is not going to get me down.

I believe that is where I am at right now. With Heart Failure it's not going to get better it's a progressive Illness. Taking the medication will only improve your symptoms not fix the problem, that's the bit that very very occasionally makes me think F*** It but we just carry on waiting ( hoping ) to see what tomorrow brings. Every night before bed I check the calendar to see what's on tomorrow, never thinking Will I see tomorrow. That's keeping the Faith !!

Sorry for the swear word I just feel it emphasises this is not going to get me down, so keep the faith !!

Regards
