I need to find some care for my husband, who has several serious health issues and the early signs of Dementia.  I have advanced breast cancer which has spread and there are no options available to me.  I have to make sure that my husband is taken care of when the inevitable happens.  This means that I will not be posting here any more, I have got to use what energy I have left to make sure my hubby is going to be okay without me.  I would just like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who has been so kind to me and helped lift my mood on my darkest days.  It is a lovely community of folks on here and there are several people who have been an inspiration, in particular Billygoat, RoseStarBlue, Dor, MargaretMary and of course the nurses.  If I have missed anyone out, please accept my apologies.  It is time for me to move on, and once more THANK YOU, because as my lovely Mother used to say, if someone has taken the time to help you, even in a small way, a thank you costs nothing.  Good luck everyone, Violet, xxx

    Love Billy xxxx

    Hi Violetgirl, 

    I just wanted to say we are thinking of you as you are having to find care for your husband and we completely understand that you need to focus on him at the moment and make sure he is OK. 

    Thank you so much for your lovely words about this forum. We are so pleased you met some lovely people here who helped you feel better on darker days and who have been a inspiration for you. As [@RoseStarBlue]‍ said, your input here has been truly inspirational too and you have brought a lot to our community. 

    [@Dor06]‍ is also spot on when she says we will always be here for you should you ever need to post again and we will welcome you back with open arms!

    Our very best wishes to you and your husband. We're thinking of you as you are facing these multiple challenges at the moment.
