I honestly don't feel that he will ever come home again. After surgery he will be moved to a rehab facility, aka Nursing Home.
It takes two strong nurses to get him on his feet and into a chair, there is no way that I could help him by myself to go to the bathroom or get in and out of bed. He is not young and strong. He is very weak with a bad heart. The Dr said he feels there is less than a 50% chance that he will ever learn to use a prosthetic. It is difficult for him to get around with two feet I can't imagine that he will be able to do it on one foot.
I doubt he will have much of a will to live if he can't come home to his furbabies. those dog are such a joy to him.
My life is about to change from every thing I know as normal. It will never be the same again. I am sooooooooooooooo very sad. |
I'm so sorry to hear this. Please take care of yourself while you are going through this. The nursing home will take good care of your husband and most of them let their patients have visits from their pets! ai will be thinking of both of you and pray that things will work out for the best.
Hang in there.
