homebound

Scott has had a rough few days. We ended up having to call the home health weekend nurse that was on call today to come out to check on him. His wound (in the lower behind area) has been bleeding/draining so much they are now "packing" it hoping that it will heal quicker. His surgeon still does not want to see him for three more weeks! I won't even go there!!! However, I will say that Scott's sick leave ENDS two days after he goes back to the doctor. The only way to fix the problem he's having is to go back in and cut more "stuff" out and re-sew him back up. My question to the surgeon is: While Scott is out of work AFTER HIS LEAVE has ended, whose salary is going to compensate for what we're going to miss????????????!!!!!!!!!! Mr. Doctor Man doesn't think about us normal people who don't have a years salary saved up for times like this!


Okay, enough of that. Can you tell we're frustrated?! I know I am not posting a lot of pictures and stuff lately. The truth is, I am just trying to keep my head above the water. I do want to AGAIN thank everyone for your prayers and everything that's come along with them. I ask now that you pray hard that Scott's wound heals up on it's own over the next few weeks. We literally CANNOT afford for it not to! Also, pray for Scott's mental health. The nurse that came out today told him that he really needs to lay down most of the time. He needs to do VERY little walking/sitting. So, he's pretty much home bound. It's really hard for him. (You can pray for me too if you don't mind. You don't realize how much your spouse helps out until you don't have the extra hands any more!)
