For the Guy with Kids and a WW Diciotto

[hopeful4her]

Thank you everyone. I just got a chance to get on and read up.

I just got off the phone with the wife. I hadn't heard from her, so I texted her about 40 minutes ago, how are things going. We hadn't talked since our convo last night. He is pretty alert, only able to say single words and hand gestures. His wife is acting very resentful of people, especially my wife. His wife is the one that wants to care for him. He is on a respirator. Not letting people in on her plans or if she is contacting the VA for his benefits. She just says she is taking care of it and she is not giving my wife any time alone with him. The uncle that I had spoken to had just arrived there. He is suggesting to move him to San Antonio where the Hospital would be better.

The wife sounds good. She stayed at the hospital. Sounds like she is going to take things day by day. We talked a little, made fun of his wife a little and laughed. I asked her where she is going to stay. She said that so far, she does not plan on leaving him. His wife sleeps on a cot and the wife stayed on a chair. I asked her if she wanted me to contact my brother for a hotel room. Employee discount at Marriott. She said no. I tell her to keep me informed. I tell her to take care of her dad. She tells me she will and for me to take care of her little ones and that she'll call them afterschool later.

Just a simple goodbye.

"Okay. Bye." I tell her.
"Bye."
