In the hospital...
 

I have been in the hospital for almost a week. I have an infection related to my cancer and I cannot be discharged until it is clear...this could be weeks...

My separated AH has daughter right now that Im in hospital. He brings her to see me daily. However today when he came, we talked like we used to, he looked so handsome...it made me miss him. Being in the hospital makes you lonely I think!

Dont get me wrong, I know he is still an alcoholic, not in recovery, probably seeing the other woman still...but I still mourn him. As they left today, I wept. I miss my husband. I miss my family. I need to move on...its not coming back! But lying here in this hospital bed is so depressing! I needed to take to the forum to help build me up...

oh sweetie, positive powerful healing thoughts coming your way! you focus on getting WELL....ok?

Healing prayers your way!

We are here for you. Will keep you in my thoughts tonight and check back on you soon. I am glad you are able to get on SR while in the hospital.

I hope there are people you can call and have them visit.

Peace always and may health and good spirits speed your way...

Oh, third....I'm so sorry to hear about this complication and that you are in the hospital! Many prayers for healing heading your way.

hugs and prayers from me, third.

Hugs from me, too!!

I just found out this week that my sponsor has been diagnosed with Stage 3 lung cancer. Our home group meeting was tonight, and we were all talking about how we could best help out so she feels supported.

Wish we could do that for you--but you are in our thoughts and prayers. I'm glad, too, that you are able to post and read from the hospital. Think of us all sitting in your room, cheering you on and cheering you up. We're here any time you need us, with a virtual hug.

I'm here too, will have you front and center in my thoughts, prayers, and good wishes. I am very glad that your daughter is getting to visit you daily; that must mean so much to you.

If you get Netflix - under $10/month - and the hospital internet system supports it, you can stream funny movies onto your computer. They say laughter is good for your health! If you can get it, let us know, and we'll post our favorite funny movies for you.

Take care, you are not alone.

Thoughts and prayers are with you.

Oooh, a movie thread! With funny movies! What a great idea!

I know my own favorite--Love Stinks (lol, great title, too, but it makes me laugh every time I watch it, and I've watched it a LOT).

Dear iamthird, hope you are getting rest. Glad your AH is bringing your daughter to you. Prayers for your recovery.

I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Big hugs to you!

((Third))

hope you a feeling better soon - sending you lots of pinkful thoughts ~

pink hugs!

if you have free wi-fi at the hospital - search those carol burnett tv show on you tube and watch her - how can you not laugh watch those shows?

anyone else have a suggestion of funny things to watch???

Lots of hugs from MamaKit too!
I second the notion of Carol Burnett!! When Harvey Korman and Tim Conway would crack up was the best part!
Hang in there sweetie, Hope you feel much better very soon!

Iamthird,
Take care of yourself and get stronger! It's nice to hear your daughter gets to visit you in the hospital everyday. Count your blessings. Don't be fooled by your separated AH being nice. If he has not recovered then nothing has changed. Remember the bad times he put you through too. You deserve a partner who 100% there, treasures you and supports you. You are in my prayers for a speedy recovery.

Iamthird How are you doing today? Able to eat some breakfast. Keeping you in my thoughts.

I am well -- it's a nice day and should get out of the house soon.

Wishing you the best...laughter and friends like people have posted!

I am doing ok this morning. Yesterday was a long lonely day. People who normally would visit me were busy due to Fathers Day. I did my best to keep busy and still am...but Id be lying if I said separated AH wasnt present in my mind.

Sending positive healing thoughts and prayers your way.

Thoughts and prayers for you.

You can also download audio books (audible.com). You can then lay back and relax and just listen to them.

Iamthird,
You are going through so much right now. Are there other people you can lean on and get support from besides him? I would lean on them moreso than him if at all possible.
Yes to movies, and someone to smuggle in some tasty treats, your favorite blanket, your own pillow if they allow this stuff, and some good books!
I am so glad you are seeing your daughter on a regular basis!
