Default I'm baaack.....

ARGH!! I'm back home in Florida. The trip to PA to stay with my cancer ridden mom did not last long. Friday night my dh had to be rushed to the emergency room . He spiked a fever. The antibiotics were failing him after some rectal surgery that he had 3 1/2 weeks ago. Meanwhile, I'm in PA trying to force my dh to go in an ambulance to the er over the phone !

My son had to drive him because dh refused to go in the ambulance. He is one stubborn man!!

I had to get my dam@ Tysabri infusion on Monday morning in PA then I took a flight back to Florida on Monday night.

As I've said before my 17 year old son, Jake, has Crohn's disease. Well, now it appears that my husband, Tim, also has Crohn's!!!!!!! He's having a colonoscopy tomorrow, he had an upper an lower GI Tuesday, surgery on Monday because the first surgery did not heal at ALL.

I am feeling jetlagged, exhausted, and CRAZY! Like I'm living in some alternate universe . I seriously need to catch a break.

I feel like every time I post I have nothing good to say . I bet you guys saw this thread and thought "what now?". LOL

If I wasn't living this, I wouldn't even believe that this many things can happen to one family at once, ya know?

Thanks for listening to me, yet AGAIN !

Calgon take me away, teehee.

I really feel for you as I had three of my children in the hospital during
the month of October. It really threw me for a loop. Just dont ask
"What now???" because you might not like the answer

Ill be keeping your family in my thoughts. Try to catch a rest now
and then. You need it.

Holy cow! I won't bore you with platitudes, but hang on to your sense of humor, you are going to make it through this.

Wow, your plate is full. Hope your mom is doing ok. Hope your DH is feeling better.

Pa is where I am from originally. I am transplanted to Mississippi (EEK - MS - I just can't get away from those initials).

Oh man! I'm sorry everything is happening at once to you. I have no good advice except to take care of yourself and try to not let the stress get you down.
