today hubby got caught out by his youngest brother who set him up to talk to his gran,
this might not sound strange but they have come over from africa to vist they were meant to come over a few mths ago but his grandad was taken poorlyso the trip was put of , when they arrived they couldnt stay were they were going to as these ppl have gonee on holiday untill saturday , so they are staying with hubbys mum , even though there isnt much room , we helped by lending them a blow up double mattress to sleep on in the lounge, but today his brother rings on his mobile and then hands the phone over to gran who insists that hubby vists then his mother is asking him to do a diy job hes been putting of , so up he goes but me being the coward stayed home and got on with the tea , when he came back he told me he spent as little time as possible with his gran as the first words she said was you are lazy you wont get much money not going to work , not how are you are you or will you be fit to return to work soon , hubby finds it hard to talk to ppl who understand let alone those who dont want to understand, yes he might act like theres nothing wrong but he can only do that for short amount of times and even his mother doesnt understand how poorly he is , and what hes going through , they think when you get out of hospital your better well it dont work like that,
so maybe this is why he didnt want to see her

relations how do take away the pain from hubby he is feeling very low, the way she is is the way she has allways been ican avoid her but she is his family she even asked him to get up at 4am in the morning to carry her bags to the bus up the hill, why were can she go at 4 in the morning if its to go catch her plane , taxi would be more apropite but we beleave she is going onto town to stay with other ppl when they get back from holiday , beleave it or not the ppl they are going to stay with are my family , or my aunt and uncle , so while they are there we will be the subject of conversation , but like lots of familys we dont see them much but imagine what will be passed around about us to all the relations just because his gran doesnt understand

I am sorry Katheryn. It all sounds so stressful. I have no advice to offer, but I do offer gentle thoughts and love!
