The decision has been made for DH not to get the vein bypass surgery and instead we are going ahead and having his toe amputated. See this is exactly what I was afraid of. I truly felt like I overreacted when I broke down after DH had his finger amputated. I am sure some thought gesh it's only a finger. But it's a finger and my initial thought was to where this would stop. So it has happened and now we are on to a toe. Again it's only a toe. And again it's a toe!
I wonder just how much DH is taking in. He has such a wonderful attitude about it. He makes jokes and such but then those make me wonder. I wonder if he is masking his true feelings and how that may affect him in the future. He is seeing a shrink, after the amputation they made an appointment for him. I so desperately wish I could find something to make him better or lessen his pain.
A few friends have offered to watch the kids or bring us a meal. they are also praying for us. It truly warms my heart at their warm thoughts and kind deeds. Easter is also this weekend and I wanted to make a traditional meal but now I am unsure I will be up for it. I suppose I will have to do it cause of the kids, I hate to disappoint them.
I am having a terribly emotional week.
