Way to go with standing firm, but allowing ample time for his response before going to sleep! Take care of yourself and send restful/peaceful thought to you all!

Bella, I could hug you, so proud of you for taking a stand, and for having the courage to go to bed and to leave him in God's hands. And he got the message, he not He - lol. Your husband knew you meant business and is now safe and being taken care and yes it hardly seems fair that you can't get the Ativan too. I love that stuff. They give it to me when I go into atrial fibrillation and they need to calm me down before giving me electric shock to cardiovert me. So thanks for the updates, hoping and praying that all will be well for you both.

Bella, as a nurse with much experience with caring with those who have COPD, I know your frustration. In fact, they become very good manipulating others through their disease process. Kuddos for standing your ground, drawing boundaries but most of all for staying true to your word. My guess is the next time you will write your journal in the afternoon for the ED. I agree with you~a dose of Ativan for him and a dose for the caregiver. God bless dear~

I'm glad you were able to take care of yourself and get some sleep. Hope your husband is feeling better and able to go home soon. I think everyone wants to put off going to the ER hoping they will get better on their own. Every time I've been to an ER it has been very stressful. Take care and best wishes to you both.
