Sick Husband

Maggie

UPDATE: He did need to see a doctor. The next morning he was slurring his words and couldnt walk in a straight line. We went to the ER and he was sent home with ibuprofen. That night he was worse so we went to a different ER who admitted him. He was mostly unconscious for the next 5 days. Turns out he had meningitis which may have led to a seizure disorder.

My husband is sick and it is SO exhausting.

Hes basically been sleeping for 3 days. He will wake up around 7 with our son because I work early in the mornings. He parks him in front of the TV until I'm done working between noon and 2. I make breakfast for our son while I'm working and I feed him lunch when he gets up from his nap between 1 and 2. He hasnt helped with laundry, dishes cooking, or cleaning up in days. He leaves his trash on the floor or the kitchen table and his clothes on the floor.. And yet, he won't go see a doctor either.

I'm running a little ragged. I understand he's feeling sick but if you can't do anything but sleep and eat, then you need to see a doctor! I asked him twice today how he's feeling and all I get is 'I don't know' 'a little better, a little worse'.

Lord give me the patience to help him through this.
