Carer

Thanks for accepting me into the group. I am a carer for my husband he is end stage kidney failure diabetes and has a false leg. So it is hard at times.

I try and make a life for myself and joined the U3A and go on outings coffee mornings and I belong to the Lighthouse choir. We are having our first concert tonight and it is my first time taking part.

It's at St.Pauls church Walliscote road Weston super mare somerset. 7.30pm to 9pm.

There is no entry fee but it is £1 for a cuppa and cake.

The charity raises money for the food bank and other charities.

Best wishes everyone,

Margaret

To Margaret and others,

For some reason, I am having trouble opening and responding to your comment. I am glad you are using the ideas on Golden Carers. You can always use the search box to look for specific ideas

I do not know if your husband is receiving hospice care. To me, it seems like he would qualify. There is not only support for him,but also for you and your family.

You may want to try an online support group such as https://www.caring.com/support-groups/erd-end-renal-disease
