We'd rather hoped he'd be home today.

Not going to happen.


I'm frustrated.


He's in a lot of pain again.  He'd tried to skip the pain meds and ween himself off them, but by doing that the pain got ahead of him.

The verbal disturbances is the pain medication.  When he was off it was when he sounded normal.  On them he's all forgetful and can't grab the right words in conversation.  Now that I know what's causing THAT I can breathe a little better but.....


I hate hearing him in pain.

I can't stand it.

I want to reach into him and grab out what is hurting him. 


I didn't line up child care today because we thought he'd be coming home.  Right about when I had to pick Spencer up at school Max decided to melt down and be a turd so thankfully my one sister came over so I wouldn't have to lug Max to pick up Spence. That very well might have pushed me over the edge.

So, no Yeti in the house this evening.

And, I can't go see him.

It is going to be a long night.  I haven't missed a day, even if only for an hour, since he's been gone.

Ugh.

They said he's likely to hurt for a while until the clots get small enough to NOT cause pain -- several WEEKS of this kind of pain for him.  And it pisses me off.  Not in the sense that I'm mad at Pat or any PERSON.... just the fact that my husband hurts.  I know there are worse things that can happen to people.  I understand that it's not like he lost an arm or went blind or something but.....

I want to fix it.

Kiss the boo-boo away.

And, I can't.

Damnit.

Thankfully, he's tough. He'll be back home soon!

It sucks to see someone you love hurting and not be able to do anything about it. Your anger is understandable. Hugs and healing thoughts to you both!

That just means you love him so much that you would be willing to take the pain for him.  That's sweet.  I'm sure if the tables were turned, he would do the same.
So any explanation of how/where the clots came from and are they going to make sure that they are gone? Were they connected to the pneumonia??
I'm happy to hear that he's improved and that the loopiness was from the pain pills. 
One time my (ex)husband was on some kind of "good" pain meds, he started talking about boobs and how they come in all shapes and sizes and was using hand motions to describe them in great detail. At some point he caught my glance and said "too much, huh?". I wasn't mad, but he was definitely in a zone of his own, BOOB ZONE!  ha.

Still keeping the big guy in my prayers. And I know how it feels to make their pain wanna just go away. Poof, be gone. They need a spray for that "Pain B Gone"..just spray it on Yeti and make him all better.

Well this is CRAPPY news!  Not what I was hoping to hear.  I've been gone several hours and fully expected a good report when I got home.  Can they switch to another pain med?  Hugs to you and a good and patient nurse for him.

Feel very thankful.  I had blood clots from a shoulder surgery and ended up having a stroke from it.  They are aware of them- watching them closely - and dissolving them.  He is in good hands by both the guy upstairs and the guys down here (who, btw, are being guided by the guy upstairs).

I can certainly understand your wanting to take the pain away.  At least it is he medication that messed with his mind.  Do they know what caused the clots?  How he got pneumonia?  You are all in my prayers.

But he'll be OK, and so will you.   And this will bring the two of you even closer together.  So sorry you are both having to go through this!
