We are getting rehabilitation help for CHS, but it doesn't come cheap.
The Therapy Gym was £25 to join and £7 a session, he goes twice a week.
Then there is Stroke Club, £55 a month.
Both are good value and a great help towards CHS's recovery but the money has to come from somewhere.
We do not have a bottomless purse to dip into.
So it's a decision, what do we give up to gain an extra £100 a month?

I haven't blogged regularly or read any for a while, just lassitude or bloody lazy on my part, so hadn't seen about your husband, what horrible thing to have happened to him and consequently you too. But you continue to try, good on you and if you feel the need to shout f--- then do so.. what a cheek some people have and not to say who they are. Keep going and keep strong, you'll win out in the end and have sex too!! LOL I read right back, a good read Hester!
I do not understand why you have to pay for these things. I know I live in Scotland, and I thank the fact that I do frequently when I read things such as what you have written. This is appalling. I havent had to pay for anything. Surely if you go for something that is not impinging on having to be ill again is saving money.
I find it disgusting that you have to pay for these things. I think you should get some allowance for these things, after all CHS's recovery means returning to work.
There is no help available as CHS is still classed as working, he is still getting sick pay, when that stops then I will look again at financial help.
Do the online application for PIP with your tongue in your cheek and worse case scenario mode firmly in place , may do no good but he can still apply while on sick pay
I hope you can manage..it's terrible having to try to find more money when things are tight as it is....I worry a lot about our future. We're retired now, but a pension never goes up , and the cost of living does all the time....
here in the US so many people need a Go Fund Me account to help pay for medical bills.. I know you have said before you don't want to do that...but I for one would be glad to donate...your blog has been entertaining me for years! I'll bet many of your followers feel the same..a little bit from many..
Sending hugs and good vibes. Don't forget to look after yourself. Your sanity is worth it.
