Marie,
I'm glad you respond to cosmic thoughts. :)
Things are up and down. He is still in the hospital, going on day 8. He is angry and wants to come home. Today the doc told me that he is suffering from steroid psychosis, which is why he is being so combative and is so confused. They promise this will go away as they discontinue the steroids. I hope so. It is hard to be supportive of someone who is yelling at you all the time. Today he told me he was going to call the police on the nurses if they didn't start treating him better. My eyes just filled up with tears because I didn't know what to say or do. The whole thing is impossible.
I am seeing my therapist a lot and I'm trying to be honest about how hard this all is. He tells me it is Ok to be resentful and angry. I think all of that is a waste of energy. I have a hard time letting anyone help out but I think I figured out today why that is. So if I can work on this I'll probaby be able to ask for help.
I'm glad you came back. How have things been?
