This can be so overwhelming! ok so tried to get help from the hamilton county but they turned us down not surprised tho. We had requested a home health aide but before we can get one a nurse had to come and check him out. In order for the aide to come a nurse has to be in the home to well we don't need a nurse we just need someone to sit with him while i go to work.
On tonight i tried to watch a movie in my room smh there is no down time in this ever i m starting to see, he is so miserable cant get comfortable at all cant sleep in the bed cant sleep in the recliner no rest whatsoever! I have been up like 15 times in and hour bless his heart! I wish i could give him a pill to put him to sleep smh but his lung/breathing capacity was last we checked at 43% so a strong drug will hurt him more than help him! As much as I need to return to work I just do not see how that can happen! he barely sleeps we have accidents all during the night unless we get a live in person work is absolutely out the question. Well we cant afford a live in so I just don't know. To be honest I don't think a aide would last i think that while i am at work i will get calls because he will be screaming he wants me. I was in the other room and he was like are you coming back smh he doesn't want anyone but me. sigh! There are no words for this madness and I HATE THIS STUPID DISEASE!
