Ugh.. Can't catch a break (just venting)

My sons teacher is positive for COVID and has to quarentine for 14 days. As of now he is asymptotic and doesn't need to be tested. The original plan for day of surgery was my mom was gonna keep him til my wife gets off work, and then she'd have him that night and the next day. But on the 7th we had a miscarriage due to ectopic pregnancy and she had to have her left tube removed. So she is on lifting restrictions. And my son is 14 months and doesn't walk. So my doc already said that by Monday the 16th i could puck him up carefully. I just have no clue what to do. Probably just cancel it and reschedule, but then my deductible wouldn't be met so my free surgery becomes $2500. Im on a fixed income so no way to afford that . Maybe its just not meant to be

So sorry to hear. Is there an extended family member or a close friend who could help out (either by letting your son stay with them or by staying over to help out your wife)? Would it be cheaper to pay someone to stay over the night and day your wife will be home with your son rather than starting over with a new deductible? Sorry things got so complicated, I hope it works out for you.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
