Just found out I have to have emergency surgery on my arm. I could use the use of my hand if the damage is ir-repairable.
I won't have the use of my left arm for a few weeks and will have to recover at my boyfriends place.

He genuinely looking forward to me being there for 17 days and the opportunity to take care of me, me...not so much.

I'm the caregiver. I've never been on the opposite side of the fence and it's uncomfortable. I'm very independent and I don't ask anyone for anything.

Needing help is very uncomfortable for me especially when it comes to activities of daily living. Showering, dressing and so on. Living with one arm will be difficult.

Having a very supportive bf helps, but still I'm very uncomfortable with it. This is such a stressful time for me.
