Living Alone!

I live alone. Living alone when you are not ill can be hard but when you are ill it can be stressful and very hard.Its hard to have the energy to cope with all the things you have to when your on your own, cooking, cleaning etc but its also stressful as you live in constant fear of being alone when you are ill.
About four months after I was diagnosed I started coughing one night and ended up finding it very hard to breath. In the end I had to call for an ambulance and they took me into hospital and after a night there I was alright but after when I came home I was so frightened.Every time I coughed I was scared that I would end up fighting for my breath once more.It really affected my confidence and for months it was hell as I lived in constant anxiety. That fear is not so bad now but its still there and never really goes away.
The government say that more people with long term conditions should be treated at home because people are better off there. That is alright if you are not alone but when your alone and feeling ill being on your own, living in your own home can be nothing short of a living hell.
I know that sooner or later there is going to come a time when I will become very ill and when I do I will fight tooth and nail not to remain in my own home and go into a hospice or a nursing home.I want to die in peace in a place I know people are on hand to help me not alone and afraid.
