There comes a time when we don't fully comprehend
what our loved ones are feeling or thinking at certain times.
As of late it feels like a twilight zone movie and no matter what
I say it is the wrong words at not a good time.
Being the Partner/ Caregiver/Advocate can really
be a demanding roll especially when your partner
feels you're siding with the doctors over them. It's a fine line we walk in
assisting with decisions and being supportive as well.
Now I find that keeping a separate journal with issues for the doctor
to review and then the issues my partner has with the doctor,
has helped me to better improve communications with both.
Most important role for me is Hys partner and protector, the guard
of the gate that will allow no harm, and if there is an issue the doctors answer to me.
