Wouldn't it be possible that a friend or one of your parents are coming to stay at your house? So you would be at your home??

Thanks pet1968 I do have some good neighbours who r retired that could pop over if they wanted to but most of the day I spend sleeping as I get so tired 

but that is a good idea 

thank you

Hello Parmz, that would drive me mad too, even though meant well.

Having cancer means some decisions/choices are taken out of your control. So keeping as much control as possible over your own life becomes very important, at least to me.

Could you either have a calm conversation with your husband, or maybe write a letter, saying that you need to feel like a capable adult. 

Things to consider...Check with your doctor whether a change in medication may improve your blood pressure. Some tablets cause a drop in pressure. Keep well hydrated, even if you don't feel much like drinking. Take some stretches when sitting/lying down, and make sure you get up in a controlled manner. Roll you ankles, shake your hands a little. Sit upright for a minute before standing, Don't walk until you've stood straight a minute or so.

Not sure where you live, but some local authorities/social services offer a personal alarm system. This is a buzzer you can wear, and press for help if you take a tumble/fall ill when you're alone in the house. An answering service then rings the house to check if you're okay. If you can't answer the phone, they will contact emergency services to visit the house. People can have a key safe fitted near their door, with a code needed to access the key, which the answering service can give to paramedics. This may help your husband/parents feel you have a backup plan if there is a problem.

I hope you can work something out that suits everybody. 

Take care,

Hi Parmz, there is no place like home so I understand that you want to be there.  My sister in laws sister is epileptic and falls a lot, they have managed to make her keep a mobile phone on her at all times to call someone to help.  This has worked so put your nearest and most helpful phone numbers in your phone, you can add them to your screen so it's just simple to push that number also you can add photos in case you're not up to seeing the screen name.  Hopefully this will help you just a tiny bit to stay home alone!  Hugs your way, Carol (previous Caz07) xx

Oh, i hope you will feel better soon!!!

Hope you are back home soon and can safely stay there.  Love your way from our little group.  Carol x
