My wife has a crisis took 4 days to come and see her.
I rang on Friday only to be told we'll get back to you. It took 4 hours to ring me at 5 o’clock as they finish to be told to ring out of hours. The advice from out of hours was "tell her to have a cup of tea and calm down".
At this stage she was manic. She was cleaning through the night. Rung again only to told "wear some ear muffs so you don’t hear her."
Got some help Monday, only after ringing my GP. They come out and said she's very poorly, it’s the worse they seen her. I explain this to them Friday. So I had to cope from Friday till Monday with no help.
This has been happening for the last 4 years. I'm not in full health myself. They think I’m making it up, but they see her now and again I live with her 24/7. What a shambles! Rant over.
