Guest guest Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Today has been a day from hell My 3rd son who is autistic knows he isn't supposed to eat chocolate He stole a brownie & of course it made him sick All night & morning so he vomited up his meds. I finally got him settled down. So I went to visit my dad who isn't doing good at all. He was in pain short of breath & unable to walk to the potty.So I walked over to the nurse's station & told them what was going on with him because he never tells them anything>He says he doesn't want to disturb them they are too busy .They gave him his pain med, & nebulizer. I made sure he was settled down. I went out to dinner with my fourth son( he is 18).It was our date night.( I have a date night with all of my sons so they can discuss what ever they want to with my full attention)went shopping with him & went home. my mom called all nerved up & saying she can't take much more.She said she was stressed to the max so I went over & got her calmed down for the second time todayI came back home in severe pain just wanting to take my pain pills. I walk into the door & My third son ( he is 22)decided to take a knife to his throat & yell he was going to commit suicide. I took him to the ER to have his levels checked according to that he hadn't taken his meds for 3 days at least.He was going through DTs.They got his levels up & it was late getting home. I hadn't had any pain meds up to this time.So needless to say I was in severe pain basically crawling into the house I took my meds got my sons taken care of.Hubby was wonderful & had food ready to eat Called the nursing home to check on Dad. Called my mom to make sure she was ok for the night.Then I made sure 3rd son was all ready for bed & took his night pills.Now everyone is either asleep finally or ready to go to sleep. I had to deal with a lot before I could even take care of me.I still am having a major problem sleeping in 5 days I have had a total of 3 hours sleep. So I am stressed to the max & had to deal with all these people All I want to do is cry.I wish Dad would die so he can stop suffering, & that sounds horrid.Mom is stressed & taking it out on me because my brothers are basically a waste of space.They keep arguing with us about dad's final arrangements which dad told us what he wanted.They think dad should stay at home & have nurses come in 24 hours a day but dad doesn't want this.So they are on mom's case.As if she didn't have enough on her mind with her husband of 40 years dieing.Being Mom's oldest I am taking care of her & dad along with my own family. I really can't take much more.So I drank my bedtime tea.had my bath & did my midnight rituals to bless my house & kids. Now I'm just Wishing for peace & sleep .Sorry for the ranting. Blessed be my sweet brothers & sisters Blessed be, Ms.Katurah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
