Well, this is the end... of last week.
But where do I start?
Last Monday... just before bed... a normal day turned into something
quite different.
If you know me at all, you know I am quite versed in all things medical,
at least as relating to my DH.
All of a sudden my poor man was in agonizing pain and it wasn't but a heartbeat
after I saw that his leg was completely white that I called 911.
They came, and scooped him up and took him to ER.
One of my son's joined me for the trip and we arrived at the hospital
shortly after.
DH had a blood clot that was blocking his artery to his leg.
I never imagined what that meant.
NEVER would I have thought I would hear:
"if plan A doesn't work, we will have to amputate your leg".
Are you kidding me?
Instead of a rock and a hard place it was a clot and a hard place.
I am so very happy to share that plan A worked.
(even though a return to plan B was in effect until X hours after the surgery)
So the week went by... and by the weekend I was bringing that brave man home!
The photo above was of some much needed retail therapy...
I am thinking of it as my shot in the arm.
I'm sure you would understand.
30 friends stopped by to chat:
Oh SInta. My goodness. Things can just change in a moment can't they? I am so glad things are looking up and he is home with you. Retail therapy is just the ticket at times. Hopefully this week will be drama free.
Oh wow! I've been in this situation with my brother and it is scary! Glad your DH is recovering... you totally deserve some retail therapy! Hope everything is back to what passes for normal very soon. Now... go sew!
Oh so scary. Glad he is better.
What a fright! So glad everything turned out okay. You definitely deserved some retail therapy.
That is so scary Sinta. So glad he is ok and didn't have to lose his leg. You totally deserve retail therapy.
So glad things turned out like they did and he's now home with you. That is scary! Enjoy that fabric and best wishes to your hubby!
Oh Sinta, glad your DH is better XXX
So scary!! Glad he's okay.
How scary! I'm glad that everything worked out well including a few new fabrics.
So glad he is doing better: I'll bet that was really scary!!! Do they know how he got the blood clot? And on a happier note, I have that floral fabric that is in the front of your picture: it is just so fresh and lovely. I'm tempted to put it into a skirt instead of a quilt!! :-) But I would sure hate the ironing I'd have to do every time I washed it! :-P Hope you all stay well for a long time now!!! Hugs, H
Sinta, I'm glad to hear that your hubby is better now. Hope whatever caused this will never come back. And I completly understand about some fabrics therapy:-)
So glad to know that all is well with the world now! Thank goodness you knew to act so quickly. As for the retail therapy, I bet it helped a lot! Love those fabrics!
How scary! I am so glad plan A worked! Retail therapy was needed.
Wow! Sounds like a stressful week. Retail therapy is the only logical remedy. So glad hubby is on the mend!
OMG< OMG< OH MY GOSH, Sinta!! HowVERRRRRY scary!! I am so glad the outcome was good! I cannot imagine being told those choices! God Bless you both!
Sounds very scary and how life changes in a minute is so true. Glad things are settled a bit for you and your DH....keeping fingers crossed and glad there was some fun things to help you thru.
Oh Sinta... I can't even imagine what you both have been through. Thank goodness they were able to save his leg! I hope he is now resting comfortably at home.
You need to take it easy this week!
Hugs,
Kris
How scary for you and your husband. I'm so glad plan A worked. Hugs
Scary stuff. Take care. I;m glad to hear that he is on the mend.
So glad that Plan A worked. Hope your hubby continues to recover quickly and easily. We also had an ER visit for the teenager, for a bee sting semi-allergic reaction, and have had some ongoing issues from that. Fabric (fiber?) therapy is just the ticket. :)
OMG!!!!!!!! How horrible scary for you ! SO glad he is ok and on the road to recovery
Holy cow!!!! I am soooo glad that Plan A worked out. That must have been terrifying for everyone. Yes, retail therapy was needed.
I'm glad everything is going well for DH. What a scare!
How scary!!! I am so glad that you are so cautious and everything worked out OK. Sending hugs your way!
Glad you are doing a post and things are looking up!
Oh, Sinta, how terrible! But I'm glad to hear that he is doing better, and you definitely earned that new fabric and book!
What a scary experience!!! One that none of us want to experience. I'm so happy that things turned out well and you were very brave :) Thank goodness for retail therapy, you deserve it!!!
That is so scary. I am so glad things worked out. You deserve some retail therapy :-)
So pleased the story has a happy ending. Best wishes for an uneventful recovery to the patient and his private nurse.
Hugs Sinta! What a scary thing to have to go through. I hope your husband is on the road to recovery now. <3
