What a week...

I have never seen a hospital so much as I have this last week. As I wrote before my oldest son was in the hospital, and then my husband had to go to the hospital on Sunday. They did a cat scan on him and he has 2 bulging discs in his back. They could rupture at any moment which would mean back surgery. He has to go back for the 3rd time tomorrow and get an MRI. So not only has he already been to the hospital twice already, we have to go back tomorrow. We have to drive to Fayetteville because he is a Veteran and has to go to the VA hospital, which means we drive about 3 hours round trip each time we go. Luckily, my father-in-law came down here for vacation before all this happened and we have had his help. I don't know what I would have done without him here.

It has been hard to do all of these hospital visits, get homework done, take care of the house and kids, and my husband. I'm so burnt out. I'm not  getting any sleep because I'm acting as a full time nurse to my husband. He hasn't been sleeping at night and so I don't sleep either because I'm so worried about him. I keep praying for him to get better and that we don't have to do surgery.

Other than that, life has been great! When you have such a big family, there is always something going on. Busy, busy, busy. I still manage to do some couponing too! I haven't done as much since I've been in school because it takes a lot of work, and I concentrate more on school then I do my couponing.

Until next time.....
