After many years of caring for my wife who has MS finally the early intervention team get involved.
However, things seem worse now than ever.....
I asked for help regarding lifting my wife for bathroom visits and a hospital bed and portable hoist was delivered and a visit from physios and district nurse.
After ordering several slings for the hoist i am still waiting for a demo on how to actually use it by myself ?
Constant phone appointments and referrals which my wife cannot attend as transport is an issue so we are no further forward.
All this has caused her to develop high blood pressure and increased anxiety/stress..... so we have gone backwards not forwards.
So much for all the promises and support promised !!!
A social worker is calling this week apparently so i am guessing the pantomime will continue....
Should i put a stop to all this intervention and struggle on as before their involvement ?
Curious to know if anyone else has or is in a similar situation ?
