My husband is in hospital 3.5 hours away his had high dose chemo and a stem cell transplant, we can't afford for me to stay down there.
But the catch is he is so unwell and doesn't get to message or call me very often.
I have no no idea how he is and what is happening down there. I understand the nurses are busy, but I am struggling here not knowing.
I have tried ried to ring the ward, but no one answers, I even resorted tonight to emailing his hematology nurse tonight in hope they ring.
i am at the point of farming the kids out and sleeping in the car in the car park at the hospital just so I know what's going on.
That must be so difficult. Some hospitals have family residences or special rates on nearby hotels/motels- can you see if there is anything like that at your husband's hospital? If you let me know which on he's in I'd be happy do to a bit of checking for you. I hope you get some information soon. Emily xx
