Not really an introduction just l have been MIA for so long am finally back figured l would update folks:
Mum is back in hospital with a full breakdown, not sure what the end result will be, as a last ditch treatment l have had to set her up with ECT under a section. When she finally comes out it will be to a care home.
I have been slowly working my way through the contents of her house & then sheltered flat which are now all in my house. Quite a lot has been slung a lot has been integrated into my house with my stuff being slung and a small pile has been set to the side for her room in a care home.
I haven't been out in CB for ages but am determined this year will be when we finally get used to each other. I spent all my free time with mum last year when she was in the shelter or visiting her in hospital all the time. As she will be in care that means l wont need to cook and pretty much live in caring for her and felt guilty if l did anything for me however now l need to find my own feet and move on. Doesn't mean l wont be part of her life just l need to restart mine after the last 2years.
Work is slow but steady so in this economic climate l guess that's a good thing.
Finally l have a new relationship totally unplanned and quite a shock l think for both of us. Andy is a lovely guy & we are both deeply in love with each other, l am sure that Brian was behind it all.
Amongst Andy's good points are he is a trained chef from many years ago and has since been in the fire brigade then a carer for his mum who recently passed. With my non cook ability his chefing is much needed, amongst his bad points are, he worries about me to much if l so much as sneeze in case l am getting ill... eish! I am a walking accident zone thanks to my job, l keep telling him get used to it l am always getting into some sort of trouble with health if it isnt bites it is scratches or colds or whatever life throws
He is a lot like Brian but also a lot of differences, As l say in my profile no one will ever take Brian's place and Andy is quite happy to discuss Brian when l start telling him stories about life but a lot different in many ways so that l know l do not have a Brian substitute but a person l can love for himself without comparing to Brian if that was the case it couldn't work.
Well it is nice to be back & l am about to dive back into the shark pool & join in with discussions again
______________________________________________________________ Brian l love you for eternity you are my rock and my life there will never be anyone like you or who could take your place.
Hi,
I dont know you,but it`s nice to hear you getting on with your life,and still talking about Brian
.Does Andy like motorhoming ?.
I lost my my first wife after 33 years together.
Then i met my present wife ,who had not been in a motorhome before ,took her away for 6 weeks to see if she would like it or not."she took to it like a duck to water ".
We are now on our 3rd mh and retired early 63 / 58 years .and planning to travel as much as we can.
Wishing you all the very best in your new life
Les
______________________________________________________________ My wife says i dont listen to her...........I think thats what she said.
Thanks Les and he hasnt been to my house or seen CB yet will be this weekend. Andy doesnt drive and isnt local but only about 50miles away however it works out is easier for me to go stay with him.
I have told him he will have to get used to aways in CB and he is lucky as will be a lazy passenger

Great to hear about the new relationship although not such good news on the surface about your Mum, except she is now getting the support and help she needs.
I am sure that Andy will trigger reminders about Brian, that is not a bad thing since such discussions will help ease the memories and if Andy is OK with that then it is brilliant!
One of the key points to remember if you become unhappy with the behaviour or actions under the section rules is that as next of kin YOU can revoke it at any time if you feel it is not needed.
BUT if she is getting a high level of support and the ECT is effective then she may well make progress - although this may be difficult to qunatify.
Good luck and, even though you are NOT a new member - a really warm welcome back from us,
