Chapter 28 - Emergencies and winnings

[Toomanywords]

Well - to top off my plate....today stepdad had half of his foot amputated.
Before the accident his foot was being treated for an infection (caused by him not taking care of himself). It seemed to be getting better but then today when he went for his weekly check - it was bad. Really bad. There was flesh eating bacteria and they had to amputate asap. So, at 1pm they started and the DR said they had to keep going until there was clean bone. Well, it was there right around the arch of his foot.

I feel so bad for my mom. She's not as close as she used to be physically. She wants to be close, she needs to be closer for times like these. ARGH She's worried about everything. If he's going to go back to work, how she'll care for him, etc.


At work - I didn't leave (mom told my not to), but I let my boss know since I'd be on personal calls a bit more than usual - they seriously thought I was joking. There is no possible way that 1 person has THIS MANY EMERGENCIES, especially not in 1 MONTH.

Anway.

Jak466 - I was hoping you were joking It's just a very rare thing to see a man open up and talk about feelings and emotions like that. At least for me





Yeah, July and August are the tough months for me. Along with December. July was the seperation and divorce papers. August was our wedding anniversary and 1 week later is our divorce anniversary. December, well, that was always just a special time since that's when we started dating and the holidays and all.



Anyways. BF's mom made a pie today and gave me 1/2. So much for trying to loose weight LOL It's rhubarb. I think it's yummy. Since it's rhubarb pie, that makes it healthy - right?

I have such a headache. But I'm happy to report that my acid reflux has calmed down a bit. Thank goodness - that scares me. I'm going to talk about it with my dr on saturday.
