August Emotionalism

Beginning of August found me at the local hospital with a urinary tract infection and  dehydration.  When they say PALS must be vigilant against infection, boy are they not kidding!
I alternated between fever and chills.  What began as gagging quickly turned to retching and the weakness in my limbs was profound.  And still I hesitated to call paramedics or even go to the emergency room until next morning when I had no choice.    

Why would I doubt my symptoms? Why would I take such chances with my health?  Temporary insanity!  My husband/caregiver and I engaged in open emotional warfare for well over a month and half.  At the end of July I felt it absolutely necessary report him for abuse and he felt it absolutely necessary to leave me.

Bad place to be if you're absolutely dependent on your spouse as a caregiver
