Today I left the hospital and my Hubby to head to work. I thought as long as he was in the hospital and can call me he would be ok. He made it all night not needing a transfusion. So I took my Vitamins supplement and got some coffee with no sugar and headed out. Did not sleep much. It is the hospital and the chair I sat in did not help my neck.
Allison came last night to visit and bring some much needed Supplies. Our pastor came t visit as well. I received a lot of calls about Steve while I was at work. Then Finally about 1pm He called me to tell me he is getting a transfusion. His blood count is too low and he was still bleeding. So I decided to leave work and take tomorrow off to be with him. He has the nurses but a man feels better when his wife is there to take care of him and make sure he gets what he needs. A man will not tell you but his wife is the one he trust the most and can confide his pain to.
I went by the house and got me a change of cloths and him some clean cloths. I fed the cat and dogs and ringed at the house that I need to get cleaned up soon. I had a slam and it helped me keep going. I got to the hospital in time to hear the doc tell him about his procedure tomorrow and if the find a bleeding ulcer what their options were including surgery.
He is not a happy camper. I did not eat well today but drank more water and take my meds and vitamins. He is however able to eat clear liquids with no red food coloring. The hospital gave him chicken broth and a whole lot of laxatives he is still trying to get out of his system. Allison came and we went to get him some egg drop soup that I had to strain all the eggs out. I guess that is love. Allison got him a remote control Helicopter to play with in the hospital room. along with all his electronics he brought he is set up. It is just bad that we are both missing work. It cant be helped.
Now hubby is into his second bag of A+ blood and has one to go. He was way low on blood. I am worried but do not let him see it. He will be in the hospital a few days but tomorrow I am going to get organized and eat right and on my Supplements and even stretch here in the hospital. Got to get focused. Stress can always make you loose your focus and a sick loved one can make you forget to take care of yourself. My goal is to drink only water and lots of it. Take a slam and my Vitamins and work on my projects while I wait for his procedure to be completed.
God bless everyone and remember take time for yourself.
