The Kitchen Table

Need Some Prayers Please

16 years ago

Tuesday DH "Vic" fell in the bathroom, hit his upper right chest against the towel bar. It hurt a lot. Thursday it was still hurting and he called his doctor, who told him to go to the Emergency Room. We did, they did a CAT scan and found a broken rib and a partially collapsed lung. Vic refused to stay in the hospital and signed himself out "against medical advice". Now he's home and still in pain. The ER doctor took me aside and warned me this could be fatal, to watch Vic and call 911 if pain gets worse or he has trouble breathing. Now it's Friday morning and he's sleeping comfortably. Please say a prayer for his recovery. We love each other a lot and we take care of each other. He has Multiple Sclerosis and I have kidney failure, on dialysis. We need your spiritual help!

Oh yeah we all know what a top-notch promoter I am! Geez Louise. I didnÂt post anything that everyone at the Spring Swap hadn't already noticed. You made a huge impression on all of us with your attitude and work ethic. We're happy and excited for you on the prospects of new employment. Just comp me some of that Slimfast! Lord knows I need it!!! Keeping Lavonne in check is just as much a full-time job for me as doing the same thing is for her in my regard. She's trying to get over yet another sinus infection so I have her duct taped to the bed. If I could get her to rest like she should it wouldn't be a problem but evidently I'm woefully deficient in still another capacity. IÂm starting to think that there isnÂt much of anything that I AM good at.

All of my best thoughts and wishes are coming to you right now, and will continue to come. What an ordeal, and not being able to find out what's going on has to be awful! All good wishes, white light, and everything else holy going out right now and for as long as necessary. Nancy

Oh my goodness! I'm sorry he's one of those stubborn men, and with MS he needs the medical care. I hope he heals quickly & completely, plus I hope the stress doesn't make you worse. Both of you are certainly in my thoughts and prayers. Times like this I wish I lived nearer my KT friends so I could be of some help to you!

Sending out good, healing thoughts to both of you! Poor guy, I hope he gets better soon without any complications (and make him go back to the hospital if you think he needs to!).

Thanks SO MUCH everyone. It's Friday afternoon and he's up and moving around the house, says he feels a little better. I made him promise to tell me if he feels short of breath or the pain gets worse. He's cranky as usual, so things are getting back to normal around here. Your prayers are being answered. THANKS!!!
