When is it time to face reality?

Well, once he's been home a few days, I'm of the "Suck it up, Buttercup" school! This surgery was to make him better, not needier. Get him on a routine, and get him out of the house as soon as possible. Sounds like he's been house bound for a while. Time to go to a movie, or out to dinner. Whatever floats his boat.

Hopefully things have improved. For some of us the 'inside' of our minds is NOT the place to spend too much time. I speak from experience - activity and a job to do can work wonders - both mentally and physically.

I was also wondering how things are going?

Checking in. Hope you are still sane and healthy.

Actually, we'll settle for healthy.

But we are thinking about you and your spouse.

Hi, he came thru surgery well. At home he was %$@*^%$^^. I want to visit my daughter (planned) and spoke to him on the phone. He admitted depression for the first time. He says it comes and goes. I said eventually it will go away. He says he's feeling a lot better and has more energy. So I guess things are working out for him, which means for me, LOL

Thanks for asking.

Good update!

Thanks for letting us know how things are going. Looking forward to better days.

Maybe you leaving for a few days was good for him. Hope things continue to go well, he gets stronger.

Hope things are going well for you!
