The meaning of the sentiment

I used the sentiment in the Simon Sais June card kit. Where in the world would I be without you has a very deep meaning in our home. My husband is the only who can lift me in and out of the bed, wheelchair and car. My only option is a nursing home if he can't take care of me. My nurse quit a few weeks ago, and my Kaiser Home Health nurse has discharged me from the program. We are on our own now! But, being discharged from Palliative care is a good thing because I am doing so well right now, that they don't feel that I need them. The other option with Palliative care, is going on to Hospice care. If you go on to Hospice, you are doing pretty bad, so, being discharged from Palliative care is a good thing! It doesn't change that I am still bedbound, but, it means that they think we can handle things on our own.
