Close call – IMPORTANT FOR THOSE WHO KNOW US
My Mikey, I love you
∞ • π³ + 1
Late last night, My Mikey collapsed on the back porch, then later on the bed. We called 911, and an ambulance took him to the hospital.
He is in ICU right now, though doing well and expected to be put in a regular room soon.
It turns out that his recent string of problems with his legs and breathing are because of blood clots in his legs and lungs.
Right now, I’m not feeling it very much, and I’d like to keep it that way, because when I DO feel it, I am overwhelmed by guilt and self-hate. I didn’t believe he had a real problem. I thought he was only trying to win an argument we were having by being dramatic.
I said, at one point, "You haven’t always been very honest with me, babe." and he said, with tears in his eyes, "I’ve been honest with you since I got here."
Well, that was a wakeup call. I feel like the lowest shitheel of a husband in the entire world.
Mama and MH know My Mikey’s in the hospital. The girls know. Lola and Stacy know.
As soon as they put him in his own room, I’ll post the number and room extension on here for those who might want to call him.
Love to all,
Jack
Oh my God. That’s terrifying! I hope Mikey’s okay! Lots and lots of hugs to you both! John (I’m sure David sends hugs too, he just hasn’t been online much lately).

RYN: I’m so glad! After such a horrible scare, he should fully enjoy his time to rest. That’s such a scary thing to happen. I’m glad that he’s recovering quickly. Tell him that David and I love him. I hope he likes the book too. Those are David’s favorites. Lots and lots of hugs, John
