It's been a hellish week for us. The wife had to go into hospital for a colonoscopy on Sunday just gone as the doctor suspected that she might have Bowel Cancer. As it is (And thankfully) the colonoscopy showed that she was 100% clear of cancer. What she didn't tell either me or the consultant at the time on Sunday was that she had been having chest, shoulder, arm and jaw pains for the last few days - She hid it so well from me that I didn't have a clue! As it is she waited until about 1;30 this morning to ask me to call for an ambulance as she felt that it was getting worse. I should have realized when our dog would not leave her side but I was too blind or stupid to notice that!
The ambulance has taken her to hospital at 2;30 this morning with a suspected heart attack - If it is a heart attack it will be her third one!
I feel that I have let her down as I did not notice that there was anything wrong and to make it worse I had a 2 liter bottle of cider followed by a rather large whisky during the late evening so I am unable/unfit to drive to get to the hospital to be with her right now as it would not be sensible (Or safe) for me to drive right now.
At the moment I am glugging down cups of strong black coffee and hoping that it will not be too long before I am safe to drive so I can be with her at the hospital.
Why the hell do women hide these damned important things from us men and leave us feeling useless and a let down to them?
