I haven’t updated this blog for a while as I wanted issues to have progressed before I put anything in writing. When we were forced to move to Stockport we were told that we could get a ramp to the front of the buliding and a wet room for Debbie but soon after adaptions in […]
Sorry it’s been so long for an update but so much has been going on and yet so little. We were waiting for so many things to be decided and I didn’t want to negatively influence anything. Fistly we have now sold the house (yahoo) and we complete at the end of June. This […]

When I first decided to start blogging about my situation and looking after my wife Debbie, I saw this as a method to help enlighten others about about MS and the care needed. When I actually wrote I realised that I would be giving more away about Debbie than I would myself so I haven’t […]
I thought I would start this Blog as I am finding it difficult to contact anyone who is caring for someone with MS with cognitive issues.
