Maybe that person that found your Blog is the person from the past, Hopefully they have become a more compassionate person?
Its wonderful that you have a great letter to explain your Dad's health mental and physical and how he does day to day.. Good your Husband helped and your Pdoc was impressed.. I hope that your Dad will agree to MRI and any other testing so that they can find out what is going on and maybe something can be done to improve his life.
Can you plan days to go out each week for groceries ? are there any parks near that you and your husband can visit and take a walk ?

32 is so young to have a hysterectomy! I'm sorry you had to go through that in such a sudden major way, Christina!
Out of curiosity, what were the risks you experienced? I read that they do sometimes give women some medications to assist with the "transition". Is what you were given likely different because of your hysterectomy? I am a little worried about having to take any kind of hormonal "anything". I never did that well even on birth control pills (with my bipolar disorder). I was happy when I went off of them.
I will try to get my butt outside more. Perhaps I'll even go to the store to buy a certain cheese I want for a recipe.
I hope things are getting easier at home for you and your husband
