Ol' girl goes in for her colectomy tm. In for a week +.
Bit worried about the recovery as she weighs bugger all. Definitely not going in in the best of shapes. I've locked horns w/ the ol' boy way too many times but the main thing is food.
Dude can't cook and that will be a problem.
How the fuck you can go through life and best you can do is a crumpet or overdone steak is beyond me. Hasn't even tried once.
I understand that generation is a bit different w/ gender roles etc. but following a recipe isn't exactly hard.
Ffs, drop the 'it's a womans job' shit mentality and learn. Seriously stuck in the 1950's.
Thanks for reading my rant.
Local council might have assistance available - especially if it's only for meals. If money's no object, then hiring someone to come in and cook every couple of days might be a useful way to deal with this.
