Living Hell

So my life as a retired person is for SH*T

My dh suffered a really bad set back health wise, with an infection ON the spine from T18 to L something

Shocked and dismayed at the amount of pain he was suffering we finally called 911 and got his hurting back to the hospital

2 days later had a surgery that revealed infection / abcess and it was drained, he had a zipper looking row of staples in his back and was sent to ICU, then to a rehab hospital - to get him on his feet again

The infection made him confused

The ABX by IV 4 times a day made him confused

And I had started burning the candle (THAT CANDLE ya know) at both ends - 14 hour days at the hospital doing EVERYTHING I could to keep track of treatments, drugs, nursing & aid staff... lol...

So now we are at day 28 of this crap and he has been sent to the hospital again with bleeding ulcers, which were taken care of and he is starting rehab ALL OVER
