I now have to give kudos to my wife, Linda, who stayed home and mother henned me through it all. At the time though, there were times when I just wished she'd leave me alone and let me sleep. I knew it was time for meds but I had finally gotten comfortable and didn't want to move. And there were times I really doubted that I was going to make it through and would get really down and snap at her. I know how hard it all was on her and she's an RN who has pretty much experienced it all. Hang on, things should start improving soon.
