Should be...Potamus's temporary nightmarish existence, lol.

He is really enjoying his bath at the end of the video. :)

Checking in to see how you are doing. I see that you are still mostly on your own. :( But at least you are able to take your meds tonight. Good job! :scoregood

Soberpotamus 01-16-2016 08:22 PM

I choked on the antibiotics. It hit the back of my throat and made me cough. Still haven't cleared it all out yet. I hope my lungs can handle it.

Soberpotamus 01-16-2016 08:23 PM

He is so angry, slamming doors, telling me I shouldn't have done this.

He never agreed with the surgery. But I intended to do this long before he was in my life.

He has refused to be supportive, and is trying to punish me now for having done it.

venuscat 01-16-2016 08:23 PM

Oh gosh, not good.
Try to stay calm... :hug:

Soberpotamus 01-16-2016 08:26 PM

I am ok, I think.

I am trying to clear my lungs before last dose of meds in 30 minutes. Then after those pain meds kick in I might be able to sleep, assuming I'm done coughing by then.

courage2 01-16-2016 08:27 PM

I'm so sorry about your situation. The physical hardship is bad enough, but when it's combined with emotional strain, it must be double-painful. I wish I could help. I hope you rest tonight.

venuscat 01-16-2016 08:27 PM

He has no right to do this to you...
Our priority is your recovery right now. :hug: :hug:
Later, well, that's another story.

Soberpotamus 01-16-2016 08:27 PM

He despises me for making this choice. He despises me.

I think I am just really sad I made such a poor choice in marriage.

venuscat 01-16-2016 08:28 PM

We're not too fond of him right now either!

venuscat 01-16-2016 08:29 PM

People don't always show us who they are...until they do.
It's painful, I know. :hug:

Soberpotamus 01-16-2016 08:44 PM

Thanks, Venuscat.

I feel awful at the moment.

Courage and GroundhogDay, thanks.

I am so sad tonight.

Do you think my lungs will get infected from somehow choking on the liquid antibiotics?

venuscat 01-16-2016 08:48 PM

I don't think we can answer as non-medical people, but I'm sure you'll be alright.
If you are worried, perhaps you can call the doctor in the morning.
I would.
I annoyed my surgeon a lot after my surgery.
I was on my own, so I was also pretty scared. :hug:
