I'm going to take a short break from blogging. My husband had an emergency appendectomy on Friday night and was finally discharged from the hospital this afternoon. While the appendix didn't rupture, it came very close, resulting in a series of IV antibiotics, pain meds and a much longer recovery than normal. He's no longer in excruciating pain, but he's worn out and quite happy to have me wait on him. :)
I have several reviews to write and will start posting them later next weekend. But now it's time for a nap!
Ouch! Take care of your husband (and yourself) - we'll be here when you get back.
ReplyDeleteYou definitely deserve a nap! Hope Rod is doing well and sending some good health vibes his way!
ReplyDeleteHope he feels better soon!
ReplyDeleteAw both of you take good care. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope he recovers quickly! Be sure to take care of yourself while you're taking care of him. :)
ReplyDeletePoor Rod! Hope he feels better soon.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that. Hope he gets better soon.
ReplyDeleteHere's to a speedy recovery, glad he is okay. Enjoy your nap, and look forward to reading your blog when you return.
ReplyDeleteNow that the pain and anxiety are over he can look at this as a grand opportunity to read all day. You will be too busy waiting on him to read, so make him blog for you.
ReplyDeleteI hope he recovers quickly and easily.

Oh my...wishing Rod a speedy recovery, and you definitely deserve some break time! Take care.
ReplyDeleteDear Lesley,
ReplyDeleteI'm glad he's out of danger, but sad to hear this trouble. Perhaps you could read to him a bit? Blessings on you both, I'm thinking of you!
Love, M.
Oh my! I had an appendix scare earlier this summer. It's painful and scary. I hope that he has a speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteHope both you and Rod are getting plenty of rest and recovery!!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! I'm so happy to hear that it was caught it time. I'm sending happy thoughts and healing wishes to surround you both. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThank you all for the wonderful comments and good wishes. Rod is beginning to feel better and will probably head back to work early next week. We're looking forward to a quiet weekend, perhaps curled up with our current books and a movie or two.
ReplyDeleteGood to see you both, Mary & Robin!
Sassy - YIKES! That was your mystery ailment, eh? Rod's bothered him on and off for over a week. Hope yours doesn't flare up again. Did they do a CT-scan??
Oh gosh! I hope your hubs is feeling much better!
ReplyDeleteI am late getting around reading my favorite blogs. I hope by the time you get this that Rod is feeling much better. Speedy Recovery!
ReplyDeleteUpdate us all soon. We're all praying for your favorite guy.
ReplyDeleteAndi, Maudeen, and Debbie - Thanks for the good wishes. Rod's doing great. He went back to work this week and even started riding his motorcycle on Wednesday. I'm pretty sure he can mow the lawn today! ;)
