Debi, Glad you were able to get in to see the doctor before this infection worsened. I too have my bladder in a mesh sling. Unfortunately, the antibiotic i was given for 14 days after the surgery was Levaquin which is at the top of the list of antibiotics and PN; not sure about the one you were given. Especially with your history, you really need to see the Gyn on a regular basis. I am on estrogen so the Gyn has me come in every 6 months for hormone lab work and a 6 months prescription. I remember the quiet evenings were the most difficult. And of course, there are things you want to ask or tell him things that are going on; and then you remember.....I know it hurts Debi. I like your husband's response your face hurting.... "lalala" . Really cute!! Hope you get a decent night's sleep. Your resistance is pretty low right now. Take care dear friend,  Gerry |

We were coming up the road toward our house and Luke was coming down the road in his dad's truck.....boy it's hard seeing his truck on the road and him not behind the wheel
 Had to clear off the top of the chester drawer tonight and that's where I kept all of Bubba's medicines, powder, diapers etc......just broke my heart......could not bear to do away with any of it so I put it in the laundry room for now and cried......the kids felt so bad for me......and then..... My mom asks if I had been crying and I said yes and told her why......then she wants to know what I'm going to do with all his clothes ! I know her mind isn't working right but it was the WRONG time to bring that up. Told her I had no plans to do anything with them for quite a while.....if ever. But I did get a tv to put in the bedroom......I have got to get back involved with life......hopefully I can make it through at least one show. I'm so out of touch that we could have been invaded for the last 4 months and I would not have known......which is pretty funny and sad. Take care of yourselves my friends. Debi from Georgia |

So many triggers. The least little thing will bring tears. You are still so raw and it is still so soon. It takes time for the heart to heal such a huge wound. The wound will heal in time leaving a scar that may be with you forever. The scar is that part of Bubba that will ALWAYS be with you. Don't try to rush it. You just take it one day, one moment, at a time. There is no time frame imposed upon you and do not allow others to try to impose one on you. Everyone has their own time schedule and coping tactics.
My grandfather set a plate on the dinner table every night for my grandmother for a long time after she died. Her hair brush sat on the bathroom counter for years. He found comfort in how he handled matters and that was his option. There is no right or wrong way to cope with your grief. Everyone has their own way and you will find your way as well. Don't try to rush. |

I know your Mom means no harm but sometimes just the mention of things like clothes and other personal items bring a flood of emotions. It took me almost a year before I even felt like I could sort through his clothes. And then it was a long process because I wanted to keep everything I touched! You'll know when it's the right time to go through things. There's no rush and no specific time frame. What works for you is what is right.
I know just how you feel about seeing the truck. My husband had a new red Chevy truck that was his pride and joy. It was too long to safely park in the garage so it stayed on the parking pad beside the garage. I'd see that truck every single time I went outside and it was a long time before I could walk by it without tearing up. There will be things that trigger you.....things you'd never think would be an issue. That's just how grief works. But it's all working towards strengthening you. There is no time frame and no schedule you must follow. It's a very personal journey and one we have to take by ourselves (for the most part) but with the help of friends and loved ones it can be done. Enjoy the good days and be gentle with yourself during the bad ones. It's an emotional roller coaster but with each passing day you're getting stronger.
