More Troubles

Now my husband is out of work sick. He got sick the day after Thanksgiving. He was in OK. and had to go to the hospital there. What he had I'm not sure how to spell it. He had di va tick u li tist. They had to operate on him. He now has a bag on his side for waste to go into.
He got out of hospital on Dec. 7th. His sister had to fly out there to get him. He was home about 2 weeks and had to go in the hospital here. He had a abscess. Now he has a tube in his back side. But that is only suppose to stay in 2 weeks. He has appointment to see doctors in Jan. we have 3 appointments, the 6, 12 and the 15th. The bag he has on has to stay for 3 months. Then they will take it out. Then he will have 6 more weeks of recovery I guess. He may not be going back to work until about April.
I think all of this has come from my son dieing. We have all hurt since then. And we miss him so much.
I was a hairstylist before I got sick, I have not had much trouble with my skin in a year or more, so I guess I will renew my license and go back to cutting hair. I can't seem to find another job. I have been signed up with a temp agency and they have not found me a job yet. Our county is really bad, no jobs. I never got the money to take the medical transcript class. But I still want to take it. So when I can I will have to save the money a little bit here and there.
My grand daughter is getting really big, not sure how much she weighs, I'm guessing about 15 pounds. She is almost 4 months old now, and getting so cute.

I'm reading the back entries on your blog and it does sound like you've been having a VERY rough go of it, and I'm so sorry.

It sounds like your husband had diverticulitis?

The doctors seem to think he did not have the diver thing, they think he just had a soften of his colon. Because the EDS causes that to. It softens just about everything, even the teeth.
Thank You Ishie, this has not been a good year at all.
