[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 41183, member: 47"] I can totally relate. With my SO's illness, he is not to be left alone at all in case of an attack. He comes to work with me, he comes to my business meetings whereever they may be. I got away for a weekend without him one time in the past 8 years, and arranged for the kids to be with him. And recently developed heart problems on top of the other stuff, I have been sleeping with one eye open as he is now a walking time bomb. Then put difficult child in the mix when he has a bout of anxiety calling every 10 minutes for me to come home, I need to come home, can you come home now. Even my three dogs are needy - when I do get home, they just have to try and lay all over me - the 10 pound one I don't mind, the two 100 plus pound ones get a bit much. I can't even go into the bathroom or take a shower, and they plop down outside till I am done, then follow me around till I decide to sit down again, and here they come. I know how Bo Peep felt. I am so looking forward to this weekend when 7 living here is reduced back to 4 again. I think its as close to "alone" as I am going to get.. Marcie [/QUOTE]
