I am home from the ER

I think everyone for your kind thoughts and prayers for the past month that you have given my family this is obviously been one of the hardest things that any family should ever have to go through. So thank you again

I am home now I've been diagnosed with a concussion a broken nose and a orbital fracture and a partially dislocated jaw. So I am to sleep in a recliner for the next two weeks because they do not want me laying down at all. I get to go in next week for them to reset my nose which I'm sure that's not going to be fun. They gave me some new anxiety meds and some different sleeping pills to try but I'm going to talk to my neurologist and therapist before I take the new sleeping pills. Right now I've taken my anxiety pills and I am feeling pretty pretty good lol.

We're going to have very chill night have shepherd's pie even though I've been told that my version is not really shepherd's pie but that's what I call it so I'm okay with it.

The boys are going to play fortnite with their friends online Sissy he will probably read books as she's still not feeling the best.

And there will definitely be no cigars in whiskey for me tonight or the next few nights I'm sure.

Right now I'm chilled listening to the Royals game on the radio looking forward to real baseball in a few weeks.

Hey, I have been without a computer for a little over a month, were you assaulted?

I apologize for asking, but you raised my concerns with your diagnosis.

@WillaKissing His daughter had a panic attack because she has bronchitis and she suddenly couldn't BREATHE...she just freaked...so he was trying to restrain her and she head butted him.

@WillaKissing yeah my poor daughter began choking in the middle of the night on mucus and she couldn't clear it out and she went into a full-blown panic attack which got worse and worse because she couldn't breathe so I was trying to give her her medications to help calm her down I have to give her a syringe in the mouth and as I was trying to do this she headbutted me right in the nose. She actually knocked me out for a few seconds we spent the night in the ER with her as they had to suction out here airway a few times and then they started her on breathing treatments. And of course while I was at the ER trying to get my daughter treated they did send social services and to investigate to make sure that my partner did not hurt me which he never did he has never raised a hand and he never would. So it has been a long stressful 24 hours

You didn't TELL me about the dislocated jaw!!! Oh my gosh...you POOR kid. No wonder it hurts to eat.

PLEASE obey Joel and your Buddy, and PLEASE be good for them.

@4meAndyou I wouldn't say it's dislocated but she got the right side pretty good and it is a little sore and they definitely want me to eat a soft diet for a week or two

Oh my gosh! And is there a little black cloud permanently tethered over your house? 🥺
At least your anxiety pills are making you feel pretty good!
Chill night with shepherd's pie sounds good. Everyone is being tended to.

@Poppies I wouldn't say a black crowd I would just say the life of a very busy complicated family with two special need children in it it's our lives and we just deal with it one day at a time

Poppies · 61-69, F

@Cigarguy I was just thinking of everything together, including Star's accident. Yes, one day at a time is the only way to go, and you are all there for each other!

@Poppies we have been through a lot this year so far hopefully this spring and summer will be calmer and will be able to enjoy picnics outside baseball games and not have to worry about anybody's health cross his fingers LOL

MarineBob · 61-69, M

Cigarguy · 41-45, M

@Cigarguy It is a privilege and an honor. I had a concussion one time. The entire left side of my face was black and blue. For three days it hurt my head to touch my pillow. I couldn't watch TV because the movement of the people gave me motion sickness. I couldn't handle light or noise either. It does get better though.

Three years ago I had surgery to fix a deviated septum. After the surgery I couldn't breathe through my nose for three days. I was terrified that if I slept I would close my mouth and die from not breathing.
