<BR>Okay please catch me up. WS- surgery where? Are you okay? Sorry I wasn't here but I have been hanging out in the hospital myself.<P>Saturday night, H had a M/C accident and is still in ICU. They just took him off the ventilator so you can imagine where I have been all week. You guessed it at his side.<P>Things are looking up with him. I hope this is God's way of waking him up. I know my priorities are changed.<P>God bless you.

No broken bones. no internal injuries. The luckiest man I know.<P>He has a concussion, Contussion of the brain stem and a small, subtle bleed in the corpus collosum(deep brain). No longer on the mask, but has his oxygen by nasal cannula. All appears to be healing.<P>Some left sided neglect and weakness, but I had them get PT/OT on the job so that will improve. <P>Got a DWI that we will have to worry about down the road. Money is going to be ???<BR>Nut he should be okay.<P>O can only pray that God has a wonderful purpose in mind here. So much has been hard about this and will be.<P>As for me, besides being tired to the bone I could use an all over body massage. I feel like I was the one in the wreck. I have been with him 14-18 hours a day. I can't seem to stay home. I just sit and guard him, talk to him and touch him. I didn't want him to wake up alone and wonder where I was like I did when he left me at the hospital this spring.<P>WS- Glad you are doing well. You had me worried for a while. You were awfully upset the last time we talked.<P>Off to the hospital. God bless you all and thank you for your prayers. We need them.

dreamer<BR>Sometimes it takes a crisis like this to make everyone take a good look at reality.<BR>Please try to take care of yourself too!<BR>It's no good if you are exhausted.<BR>I was afraid it might be a DWI. I know we both have that problem with our Hs. Maybe this will be an eye opener.<BR>There have been times that I wanted to phone the police and anonymously rat on my H. He is such a bad example for our children when it comes to drinking and driving. Thank God both of my kids see things differently. I have had to get up many times in the night to go get my oldest but at least he has enough sense to phone home instead of drinking and driving.<BR>I'm glad there are no broken bones or internal injuries. I'm worried about you though. Please!!!!! take care of yourself.

dreamer<BR>I pray that he will learn an important lesson from this!<BR>The money will be worth it if he does.<BR>When I had my concussion I realized how close I came to not having any tomorrows. It gave me a different outlook on life. I'm sure I would have given up long ago if I hadn't had that crisis.<BR>Please!!!! remember to take care of yourself.
