I am in a permanent state of anxiety wondering if or when I will be able to see and hug my husband who until he had a stroke 18months ago was my carer as I am wheelchair bound with MS.Why don’t people realise how vital it is for both of us to have regular contact.To deny this is no less than cruelty.This sort of life is a living death.I am desperate to bring my husband home.At least I will see him even if it will not be easy with his confusion.He feels I have abandoned him in his tie of need.
