The Wifey is Feeling Better
Posted in Personal on February 11th, 2008The wife is feeling much better. We got out this past Sunday to go and have lunch with friends and to catch a movie. I don’t even remember the name of the movie though.
What is important is that my wife if feel better and better. She is starting to remind me of her old self again which is great. Just a happy chipper person. She even started to jam out to some music in the car, she hasn’t done that is quite sometime.
I feel that I did her an injustice by not getting her more help sooner. i felt that there was a better way of doing things. There still may be, but they are not as fast. Natural medications take time. Although I feel that they are much better for someone in the long run, it really doesn’t solve the problem fast enough in some cases.
I really didn’t like the idea of taking my wife to the hospital. I still don’t like the idea. I don’t like the idea of all of the medications that she is having to take to slow down her thyroid and the insulin for high blood sugar. There are somethings that you just can’t get around now matter how much you try.
Aver all I have been thankful for the doctors. They did what they were supposed to do. I don’t really have any complaints I don’t guess. I do hope that if she has to take medication for the rest of her life that she doesn’t have to have an operation on her thyroid. I think that she would rather have a hyper than a hypo thyroid any day. I can’t say for sure of that.
I do know that I will listen more to my wife about herself than I have in the past. I feel mostly response able for her condition. Well not the condition, but the time it took to get something done about it. I feel that if I had not talked about getting help though natural means that she would have went to the doctor sooner.
It also helps to have insurance. That I also feel is mostly my fault. I should have a job where I can afford the insurance and have a better benefits package. That would have made it less hurtful in the short and long term. I feel that if the insurance had been there she would have went sooner. I don’t feel that she would have gotten the problem fixed the way she did if she had gone to a regular doctor though.
The main thing is that she is getting better. I’m not going to dwell on the should haves, could haves, or anything else. What really matters is the now and the future. I don’t really think that she blames me. I was just trying to do what I thought was best. In the long term it may be the best thing, but in the short sprints it was killing her.
I just really wanted to let everyone know about her status considering I talked about her being in the hospital. I think life will be tougher in another area for us now. I’m just happy that my wife is doing better.
