My Husbands Grandfather (btw he has type 2)went in to the hospital for open heart surgry a couple of weeks ago. We were all very worried for him. Of course he told everyone he was fine he has ready to go on to glory and he was even telling us how to prepare his funeral.. "No sadness.. " he said "only laughter and Joy. It will be a going home, not a good bye." ( his is an ordained minister if you can't tell).. However he cam out of surgry fine and he is healling really well too. This weekend i found out that while he was in the hospital instead of taking to the diabetic special about him and after precidures depression. He talked about me. He told the nurse that he didn't think that i was doing well and thought i was in denial that i even had a problem. Which a month or so ago that was probaaly right. I was going through my honey moon phase and my BS was amazing. then honey moon was over and i got depressed stopped checking my BS all together.. This weekend when my husbands parents sat me down for a "talk" they had information for a specialist where i livefor the doctor that Grandpa had talked to.
However i probably will start seeing this dotor but because of all of you.. I am no longer depressed. You all help me out every single day with everything all of mu question, encouragement, and even comfort knowing that i really am not doing this alone. and that there are people like me that even though they may have had it way longer or just found pout about it today., we are kind of like a big familey. We all are linked together forever. I just wanted to say thank you for all that you have done :)
Love you all Megan Coffman :)
