Tamaralovelace what a journey you and Rodney have been through but I am so glad that he is getting better! The truck was so smashed that it was amazing that he survived it. I am deeply glad that he did and that he had your love and support all through his challenging journey!
How are you and Rodney managing at home? My thoughts and prayers remain with you both. I am gradually getting back to Steemit. I only go on every 3-4 days but hopefully I will have more energy as the days pass. When you get to my age, it takes a real toll on my health!
Please take care and I do wish you both greater and happier days ahead!!!
Thank you so much @cabbagepatch! I am so happy to have him home again. It is tough here, without the regimented therapy, it is easy to fall into the ' I don't feel good, I'm hurting, I'm too tired' mentality. I am having to push him harder to get anything done lol. We start on the outpatient therapy tomorrow, so that should help alot. Without his income and mine too, we are hurting terribly. I will be arranging to go back to work soon, out of necessity. No matter what happens, I know God will provide, so am not overly worried!
Speaking of worried....I have been missing you terribly and wondering how you've been doing?!? Of course, you must guard your health at all costs, but I must say, I got a rush when I saw your name LOL. I truly enjoy talking with you and have missed you while you've been ill. You take care and my very best to you and your family <3 <3
I know how tough it must be. Unfortunate the patient tends to listen to the doctor, nurses and Rehab Therapist more than the family who is taking care of the patient. When Rodney goes to therapy, perhaps you can tell the therapist so that he/she can reinforce the need for him to listen to you. Everyday, he must work hard to get better and heal. My heart really goes out to you. Don't get discouraged. Persevere and never give up. In the end it will be worth all the hard work!
I know it must be hard since you have to return to work. Is Rodney able to manage with you gone for so long? What about his father? Can he help? The pressure you must be feeling must be so awful. Please don't stress too much or you will get sick yourself!!!
As for me, each day I am doing better and better. I am starting to write again but it does take me longer. I now am limiting my time on Steemit to every other day. I missed my contact with you and some other Steemians so it is good to at least be able to reconnect. Please take care and don't get sick! You have to take care of yourself before you can help Rodney! My thoughts and prayers are with you each day! Keeping being positive and keep writing when you have the time. It is a really good outlet!!! :D
