Default Need prayers, good thoughts, all of that....

My hubby has been in the hospital since Monday. My stress is through the roof! Dealing with my children, (2 legged & 4 legged), all by myself.

He had a Grand Maul seizure yesterday morning, and ended up in the ICU of the hospital. They are testing him for all kinds of things, they cannot find the source of the issues. He had an epidural for pain management Monday morning. He decided to go clean our dog run, and had sudden leg weakness, and bowel incontinence. I wasn't home when this was happening, he had to call an ambulance to get him up, and take him to the ER.

I am totally stressed, and don't know which way to turn next. I have a dear friend coming to stay with me, to help me out, so that will help some.

I am asking for prayers, good thoughts, all of that. I don't know when he is getting out of the hospital, he still has leg weakness, they don't know where that is coming from. UGH!

Becky

Prayers being said now for your DH and for you, too. What a stressful chain of events! And the waiting is the worst.

I'm so glad to hear that someone is coming to help you. Sometimes just the presence of a friend is all that's needed to bring some calm into the situation.

Please keep us updated on his progress. I hope he makes a speedy recovery.

You and your family are in my prayers. I used to live in Hoffman Estates, Rolling Meadows and Mt. Prospect before I made the move to the City. I used to work in Elk Grove, Rosemont (2X), Schaumburg and H.E. I miss the easy parking and chain restaurants of the NW suburbs.
