Oh that's not good, do you want to say what's happening with him? Hospitals are hopefully there to help at really difficult times so perhaps he is where he needs to be right now. I'm thinking of you both ♥️

in reply to Grateful71

Yes he needed to be there. Thanks

You can, you have to.

But please look after you - get some sleep , eat well and drink extra water.

Is he happy to be there? Is he being helped now?

It feels horrible right now, but you will come through this.

When my husband was in hospital recently it was like a nightmare ( only - I was awake and it was real) BUT we came through it.

Don't make the mistakes I made - get enough sleep and rest and eat properly . So that you can be there when he needs you.

Pray like you've never prayed before. Pray and cry and get it all out to God (He can take it and will help you) -

so that you will be refreshed, strengthened and composed when you see your son. So that you can just 'be there' for him when needed.

Please keep us updated & come back on here for support through this.

God Bless.

Thank u and yes he's happy to be there etc. I'm trying to be strong but I'm so tired and weary. I will try to overcome but it's not easy for me.

No, of course it's not easy. This is a very difficult time for you. It's good news though, that he is happy to be there. Are you happy with his care there ?

I know it's really hard, but please get some sleep and some rest during the day. We are fragile and need to take care of us too. We are weak, and need to draw strength from the Lord to overcome.

Thinking of you xxx

I am so sorry for what you are going through. I will pray that you and your son have healing and peace. Take care of yourself though. Don't ever feel guilty for self-compassion and self-care for yourself. My husband woke up sick and confused the other night and I Had been not feeling well, and I thought " If I get down and not feeling good, who is going to help him?" So I called a family member to come sit with him and I took some time to myself, to go home, take a hot shower rest and read a book and just care for myself . I was rejuvinated and able to go back to him and do what he needed done.

Do you have a positive support system that can give you a break? Do something to relax you and rest up? We can get so tired we don't think straight and get emotional. Don't hesitate to ask for help and go do something for you. Get a bit of fresh air. The point is take care of you so that you can take care of everything else you need to. Prayers.

See previous post, he's not feeling well mentally.

in reply to Mary-intussuception

What was His Operation for, it takes time to revert once more to good health.

Good luck to you both

Don't think he had an operation. The poster said her son is mentally unwell in an earlier post.

She also has written a new post.

Just think about All you have come thru in the past, you did it then, you will do it now, you have a lot of strength and wisdom. Your Son Will get well as will your husband, and You need to be well to help them when they are up and about, which means you have to take Very good care of yourself now. i.e. eating healthy, sleeping enough, going for a walk to quieten your mind. We are here for you, so write to us so we can give love and support....With love, hugs, peace, strength.....Sprinkle 1.....

It’s very draining and exhausting to know your loved one is in the hospital. That they’re not okay.

The waiting. The not knowing.

That how you are and how you feel hangs in the balance of... what happens to them.

I am sorry for you and your son. It’s hard to take a sour lemon in life and try to find someway to make lemonade. (I think that’s how that saying goes?)

I think we all reach a breaking point. Where we collapse and cry. Where we look in the mirror and can’t seem to find a way or a want to go on.

And then we pick ourselves up. We carry on. It takes a tremendous amount of strength and support to do so.

Visit your son when you can. Make sure you sleep, eat, and take care of yourself... and then comfort your other loved ones. Find things to appreciate and enjoy during your day. Sing along to that song on the radio and dance. Talk about it and receive guidance from others.

With that amount of sorrow, it’s almost like you must force yourself to enjoy life. For whatever reason you can find, whether it’s for your other kids or your spouse or your son who can’t be there right now.

My brother was hospitalized multiple times. It was hard when he was gone. He’s back home and it’s still hard, but better.

Pray. Pray with praise to God, ask, and rely on Him to be your strength.

Time passes and it becomes a different struggle. We try our best. Time keeps moving.

You care about your son. We love our family members and we can’t choose the path they walk for them.

💕💕💕
