Family driving me crazy!!!



Recommended Posts

So at the beginning of this whole journey the only person who has always been behind me is my husband. No he is acting like I can not do anything, cook, wash clothes, wash dishes. If I try to walk to long in his eyes he is telling me to lay down. Of that's not enough now I have my mother who questioned the way, made little remarks about my weight now wanting to come take care of me. Not only does she want to come stay with me she wants to bring my two youngest nicece too. Which are 3 and 5. It's not some vacation from work for a family get together, I'm recovering over here.

Just find it funny now that I am accomplishing what I set out to do now everyone is all of a sudden on mine and husband side.

I'm not sure but I think that says your husband loves 💗 you. I don't know what I would do without my daughter helping me. I've had a hard time recovering and help is a blessing.

I hope it all works out for you and you get the support you need.

Best wishes!

He sounds so sweet! You might think about reminding him that you need to exercise to help your recovery. You could tell your Mom that you and your husband need to figure out your "new normal" on your own, and reassure her that your husband is taking good care of you. (And you'd love to see her after you've healed so that you can do more things together.)

Thanks. Will try that. Fingers crossed.

First, how wonderful that the tides have turned and everyone wants to support you!

However, if you need space, just say so.

Best wishes.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
