My poor hubby

I knew I would forget I had this.

Today I am feeling mostly frustrated and mostly with my hubby. I hate seeing him in so much pain, he can't walk properly, he can hardly bend to get his clothing over his foot as he can't bend the knee yet he still perseveres with doing everything for himself and for me no matter how hard I try to stop him. He now has 20 mg morphine patches and still no relief for the pain. When he tries to weight bear on the knee you can hear the bone on bone crunch. He really desperately needs to go and have the knee replacement op and our doctor has told him that he only has to say the word and she will refer him. It has to be his decision and I know why he won't go, it's because he is terrified of dying under anaesthetic. He is worn out with the constant pain, the remedy is there but he is far to scared to get it sorted. I have researched and told him that he could ask for it to be done with a spinal block but he is just not having any of it. :( Please if you are reading this and have him on facebook or see him day to day, help me to persuade him. Apart from any other reason, with Katrina back in care the chance of kinship caring for her is back on the agenda but with him being so limited in movement with this knee it will affect our chances. x
