Meltdown

[Nettie]

I had a meltdown last night after the lift going in and the bed going back upstairs everything was all over the place and nothing was in the right place 🤦🏼♀️ Because we were short of room while it was sorted we decided to use the travel wheelchair instead of the powerchair while Phil was asking me where I wanted stuff, but then he couldn’t get me out of it 😱 20 minutes of struggling we finally managed it.
I just couldn’t cope probably because I wasn’t feeling well in the first place but ended up blubbering 😭 and I never cry.
my daughter has been to help today so things are a lot better now 🙏🏻🥴

Oh Janette, having a meltdown is perfectly understandable and allowed !

Sometimes its good to let everything out and you have had such alot to cope with in a short space of time. I've read your posts in admiration.
I'm like you in that I don't cry very often but when I do I really do.😭🤣

I'm glad your feeling a little better today and hope it continues,
Love and hugs to you,❤

Thanks Deb, it all got on top of me and it’s not like me, it was nice today spending time with youngest daughter helping me to clear some stuff out ❤️ Love to you Janette x

Oh Janette, I also understand why that happened and the meltdown was appropriate....

After so long stuck downstairs, with so much hassle about the lift, everything should have been just perfect for you - it must have just taking the wind from your sails 😥😥😥 And then the transfer, I'll not revisit that 😏

I'm glad you had a nice day with your DD.

Tonight's another night 🤞🤞🤞

Hugs and smoochies 🤗🤗🤗😘😘😘

It just gets worse folks,just had fall I had to use the community link alert to come and get me up 🤦🏼♀️ I’d slipped while trying to get to the commode but all my weight was crushing my legs & feet Phil & my son couldn’t get me up but managed to lie me down on my side while we waited for help, it took about 15/20 minutes then the same to get me up.
I’m ok now but I think I’ll ache a bit tomorrow 🥴 Janette x

Oh Janette, poor, poor you!! Has somone got a Voodoo doll of you?

Take it easy tonight ( 🍷🍷) and hopefully you won't be too sore tomorrow.

Love Ellie xx

I know I was thinking the same thing 🤦🏼♀️ I wished they would bugger off and pick on someone else 🤨 Going to bed soon tomorrow’s another day 🤗👍😘

Oh Nettie - poor you. I had a fall just like that when my legs were going in November. I was trapped between the toilet and the wheelchair. Boy, did I yell!!!! My husband and daughter couldn’t move me. Finally got me lying down and very luckily we had just had a hoist fitted so they could get me up in that. (Think I’d still be there otherwise!) If its not one thing it’s another. A good cry does indeed help and if you are not a regular crier then when the tears come its like a dam bursting. It can be very cathartic. Enjoy your lift and being able to go upstairs. Xxx

Sarahw Ow Sarah, that fall sounded painful...

If its not one thing it’s another.

Spot on - I think everybody here feels like that 🙄 😘
