I Don't Know If I Should Laugh or Cry My son and I spent all day in the ER yesterday. He has been a type 1 diabetic for 5 years now. Once in a great while he gets the idea that he is superman and thinks he doesn't need to take all his medicine. So he is now admitted. He is doing okay. I did cry in the ER when I was talking to Beth about what I needed to take care of but quickly pulled it together and got friends to pitch in. He will be in at least until tomorrow. So...
DH had his PICC line stuff changed out yesterday. He called me when I was at the ER and told me home healthcare did not take his blood for labs. I called the doctors office and said "I need you to manage this because I just don't have time to keep up with it all". They are "taking care of it".
Quilty things.....I thought about taking my Seven Sisters quilt with me to work on in the ER....does that count?? I am fine...really. Just need to get this all behind me...soon!
I am so sorry you are so overwhelmed. I will continue my prayers for your family. Please let me know if I can help.
ReplyDeleteGood thought to consider taking it to the ER to work on. When my life was lived in and out of the hospital with my husband, I created a "hospital bag" that lived in my car. It had books, a few mindless magazines, snacks and always some kind of needlework or quilting project. It really helps to pass the hours while they sleep! I continue to pray for you!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of you. It's just not fair that all of this is hitting you at once. I think you get to laugh when you manage to sew your quilt to yourself. =)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, how much stress can one person stand?? I feel so bad for you. Sorry to hear about your friend passing before she got her quilt. Sheesh, what a week, eh?
ReplyDeleteWow - somedays it is just TOO MUCH. I am so sorry to hear about your challenges. These kids are enough to make you pull out your hair sometimes.
ReplyDeleteAnd blogging for one full year. I have until April to reach that momentous anniversary. That's great! Why don't you send me (or post) your address and maybe the Gods of quilting have something put aside with your name on it?
Happy Holidays - try to relax.
