Not Good News -- Surgery

[Janet]

Well last night totally sucked!! After he came home and we finished with supper, I was asking him just what did the Dr. say. He told me of course. Then he said that he told the Dr. there were things he needed to take care of (and can you believe he is sooo concerned about being able to go to Scout Camp this summer) and anyway, I told him IF I were him I would have it done asap so he would be able to enjoy his summer. He's worried about a job, because the Dr told him he wouldn't be able to go back to doing what he does now, so he's worried about the future. I told him there is no reason to worry...that there is nothing you can do about it. That he would find something that would be easier on his back. So do you know what he told me........TO GET OFF HIS BACK!!! I just looked at him and said fine....I would never ask him about it again. That if he was going to wait...not to complain about it, because I didn't want to hear it.

If you all knew what I was really feeling now you'd be so ashamed of me. I'm ashamed of myself...so I guess I'll have a 'poor me pity party' for a little while and then get on with the days tasks.
