Has your husband been supplied with a letter to take to the emergency department whenever he experiences high fever etc? My son needed to attend hospital last year for similar reasons and showed the letter to the triage nurse who then arranged for him to be taken to an isolation room straight away. He was seen by a nurse immediately but it was a while before a doctor was in attendance. Hopefully, if you need to go to the ED again you will have an easier time.

Our son was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer 2 years ago when he was 40 and had just become a father. Despite numerous visits, my husband and I relocated from our home to be nearer to him 8 months ago as he has no other family close by. As other treatments have ceased working he is now on palliative chemotherapy and we are caring for our grandchild 3 days a week. Is anyone else in a similar situation - grieving son's diagnosis, caring for toddler, living a long way from home and other family and friends?
