Feeling grounded.

Theres an airshow today and tomorrow, but I won't be going!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Si is not confident about being in public with the wheelchair. I've tried to coerce him into going, i've tried everything, but no joy.


I do understand but wish things could be different, he is stuck in the house 24/7, it can't be good for him. I've suggested going to his sisters garden so he can see the planes flying overhead and have a bit of a social time, but still no!!!!!!!!!


What can I do???????????????????????


Starting to feel a bit stir crazy myself as I won't leave him without someone being here and there is nobody at the moment, everyone is either working or got some other thing that  they have to do or some place they have to be, not anyones fault but I am going to go mad if this continues. It's all well and good people visiting,but  it's not the same as getting out there yourself is it???????????????


We are a bit tied with the nurses coming twice a day, and all the services that phone, [funny how there are no calls when I do manage to go out when the carer is here but as soon as I return the damn phone and mobile start all over again].


I'm sorry I'm starting to think this way, not anyones fault, just the way things are I suppose. What will be, will be


Still no news from the witch, Maybe I should phone the police again, at least I got a response, maybe she needs a kick up the jacksie, she lives to far away for me to  physically do it! I shall sendanother e-mail I suppose and be nice to get her to answer. Yeeuukkkk, sick


Shouldn't feel this way I know, should be more gracious to Si's needs, I will endure this for his sake. I will be ok, just needed to have a moan and groan , got a bit of a headache as well doesn't help.


PLEASE DO NOT WORRY ABOUT ME.I WILL BE FINE IN A COUPLE OF HOURS. HONESTLY.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is a shame that Si won't venture out in his wheelchair, have you told him that you are feeling shut in all the time and need to get out? That witch is certainly playing you up, when you e-mail her perhaps you had better say you are missing seeing her! I could willingly throttle her for you! I hope your headache gets better soon, take care of yourself, am thinking of you. xx

my mother inlaw is in a wheelchair and in took alot of pursuasion to get her into the public eye in the end when i was made redundant m ywife and i did pursuade her and my youngest son use to sit on his grans lap and call the wheelchair speedy benny. as a person who knows si from my childhood this is sad to hear but i know that he is strong minded and hopefully will go out side as for the witch it is fathers day tomorow give the bloke a break and let him see the children .
Feeling blessed

Don't forget that you need to take care of *yourself* as well as Si and everyone/ everything else... if you burn out, all else will suffer. (((Hugs)))
