No, My Husbad Did Not Feed Me to a Buffalo, Updates and info on a Pay it Forward Post

We have been back home about a week. I have been in bed since last Sunday. I finally started feeling better on Sat and was able to unpack everything.

They did not have to do surgery on my FIL's legs. They did an angeogram? and was able to fix two big blood clots in the top part of his leg.The doctor said he still has a lot of little clots from his knees down.So he's still not doing great but he is better.

They are having a hard time getting his diabetes under control. He hasn't taken his insulin in over 3 years. But now he is, I hope he continues. But his doc. told him he had done a lot of damage to his body already by being off insulin for so long.

I will post more about the 16 hour drive, we made it a two day drive there and back
Also, I will post a pic or two from our trip there.

Thank you all for sending up prayers for us. We weren't sure what we would be walking in to at the hospital, I just kept telling myself, I don't know but God does.

I do have a Pay it Forward post coming and to tell you about the great gifts I received from a wonderful, beautiful, blogger friend. That will be this week, promise.

There are so many things that I want to post about. But my head is still all jumbled with too much information as it is.

We are on our way to a doctors app. for mom. She is worse than she was before she went into the hospital. She hallucinating, very disoriented, lethargic.

I just feel that I am getting bounced from one emergency to the next.

Hope you all are well and I will start catching up and reading your latest posts tomorrow.

I'm so thankful for the fact that your FIL is doing better than expected, and at least starting to get back on track with his insulin.

The health issues going on are just so insane to me. I am so sorry that you are having to go through so much stress, pain, and frustration. I sincerly hope that things lighten up and get so much better SOON!
