Title: Didn't mean to desert you again......
Post by: Pooh on May 09, 2008, 11:38:19 AM
Hi Everyone,
I'm sorry I had to take a leave again.  My husband was admitted to our local hospital on Tuesday night and I've been running to and from the hospital each day.  I'm told he will be home soon. 

I will probably be out for at least another week or until the 18th.  I hope you will keep us in your thoughts and prayers it has been a real fight this time. 

I miss you all and will be back soon.

Hugs, Pooh

Pooh, I was just sitting here thinking about sending you an email. I had not seen or heard much from you lately. I am so sorry to hear that your husband is ill again. I will most certainly keep you both in my prayers. I  hope that you are also taking care of yourself--and I am sure you are doing the best you can. Please let us know when you get home and settled in. Irish ;D

Pooh,
I am sorry to hear of your husband's illness.  I hope and pray that things continue to go well with him and that he will be home soon.  The two of you will remain in my thoughts and prayers.  I agree with the other posters in that you need to remember to take care of yourself.  I have stayed at the hospital with loved ones many nights and know how rough it can be on you. 

Also, thank you for being so supportive of me on this forum.  You are a jewel and your encouragement to me and others means SO much.  Praying and thanking God for you.

Pooh,
I'm very sorry to hear about your husband. I will keep you both in my thought with good wishes to you both. I agree with the others, you need to take care of yourself also so you are well enough for the both of you. Don't worry about being gone from here, just concentrate on your health and your husbands.

Hi Everyone,
Thank you so much for your kind words and prayers.  My husband came home yesterday and right behind him came the oxygen supplier.  They installed the new Oxygenator.  Only 2 small bottles, 50 ft. of canula tubing, canula's, and carrying case.   This new machine converts our home air into pure oxygen so there is no need for all those bottles.  It's great. 

He had to test out the carrying case last evening and walked up to the barn.  It was so wonderful to see him return with color still in his face.  He admits it makes life a whole lot easier.  For me too.  I don't have to worry about him collasping on the way to or from his destinations. 

I hope all the Mothers out there have a wonderful Happy Mother's Day.  Take care and I will be back soon.

Hugs and God Bless,
Pooh

Pooh,
I hope things are settling down for you. I'm sure it is good to be home. Glad your husband is doing better. It troubles me that so many of you, who are so active helping so many on this forum, not only do you have your own health issues, but also deal with your loved ones in crises.
I can't help but pray for all of you as see your situations.
