I Am a Caregiver

Go figure. His emergency room visit was for nothing. They ran every test they could think to run. Stupid old raisin. 🙄

Was it better to go and be sure it was for nothing though?

Of course. He does this often is all. We can't keep paying for him to cry wolf. We don't have the money for it. 😒

@GlitterBug Kind of the opposite for us, with my wife having worked in the medical field she avoids going to the hospital or even letting her doctors know she is having any issues. A lot of times I have to notice things or she won't tell me. I do fully understand your frustrations though.

My grandmother did that. Wouldn't say a thing if there was a problem. She did that her whole life. @gmatthewb

@GlitterBug I'm that way as well most of the time. Hard to know what is more frustrating, taking care of someone who doesn't let you know what is wrong or someone who thinks something is wrong even when it isn't.
