Why I've been MIA (swear its legit)

 image
 
Hi ladies. I've missed your faces. My birthday weekend (4/20)  my FIL ended up in a horrible car accident with two of his buddies. He has been laid up in the ICU in Richmond ever since. It was awful. He was on a ventilator, had multiple operations etc. He ended up with a compressed fracture in his spine, a removed spleen (it had detached) and broken ribs on the left side (numbers 2-11). His condition went back and forth for awhile. Fevers, infections etc. He is finally making progress and is looking to be released hopefully within the next week. But only if he checks into a rehab facility to get stronger. Anyways. Just wanted you to know im not an ass hat. That is all.

  • I am so sorry you have been having to go through this all.  I hope your FIL gets better really soon.  How have you been feeling with the pregnancy during this?

  • Thanks that's really sweet of you. You know, I've been thinking about it a lot and although I was tired and would get nauseated when I needed to eat it really took a back seat to everything that was going on. Now of course I feel guilty because I wasn't getting enough rest (being at the hospital all day and night) and ate like crap (hospital food or fast food) but it is what it is. Now MIL is asking if he skips the rehab facility will I help out with his care (we live with them because we are purchasing a home that is a short sale). How can I say no to that? I have a 5 yo, a 6 mo old and Im prego. I know I need to step up and say no but I feel so guilty.

    Oh goodness, I am so sorry.  I know that that would be a hard decision to make just in your own mind, besides not having to worry about other people's reaction to your decision. Can they not afford the rehab?  I think with all his injuries, rehab would be a good idea.  

    I hope you can get some rest and focus on you for a little bit.  Hang in there!
