Here we are again, a few more days have gone by and we are still here... still kicking. Soon,Ron and I will be able to go home where we can truly relax. Ron had a nice nap today... which was huge. Lack of sleep really messes with your head. We are both doing all we can to just get by and brush off as much stress as possible... it's not as easy these days as it usually is for us, but we are both two people who bounce back and I know soon we will be able to to just that... getting home will do wonders for both of us. I keep trying to remind him not to stress over things we can't do anything about right now... "just focus on this moment and make it the best we can."
I needed someone to tell me that today and yesterday. I allowed something (fyi-completely unrelated to what is going on here)I knew was out of my control, and more than I can handle on a good day, sneak in and drowned me. My dad accepted my very frantic phone call, listened to me cry and vent then eventually changed the subject and then in my dad's perfect way he made me laugh. I am honestly ashamed that finally I broke down on Ron today. It was unrelated, poor timing and so unfair to him. I did my best to run into the next room and sob in my pillow but I know I upset him. He is already dealing with so much, having to watch me cry was the last thing he needed. It was more than a lesson learned, more than just for this situation but all future trying times in our lives... one thing at a time... US FIRST.
Ron got the rest of his staples out today, it looked like it hurt this time more than the last. His incision still needs a lot of healing so they patched and bandaged him up. We need to keep a close eye on it over the weekend but I think he is grateful the staples are gone. I took a couple pictures and will try to add them later. Ron's numbers still look great! We couldn't be more thrilled about it. It's just a countdown now until we get to go home. Abby here we come!
