Update on my situation

My wife came today and for the first time in a couple of months, we sat down and talked. It turns out that we had a communication problem. Since my doctor put me on medical leave, all she saw was me, not working and appearing to be happy-go-lucky. She thought I didn't care, nor want to work. But she didn't see all the times that I was up late at night, or the times i would take a long walk alone through the pasture crying and feeling so down that I didn't want to live. I didn't tell her that because I didn't want her to worry. She was working full time and going to nursing school. I told her that I didn't want her to have anything else to worry about, so I kept everything bottled up inside of me.

So, this is what we've both decided to do. We're going to stay seperated for a while and see what happens. She told me today that she loved me and that she was dying inside to come back home, but she thought it would be best to wait until our financial situation gets a little better for our son's sake.
We'll just see how things go from here. I'll try to keep you posted. Please keep me in your prayers. Today has not been a good day. After my wife left, my mom got a phone call saying that her brother is dying. She's at the hospital with his family, so I'm home alone. I wanted to go with her, but in the mental condition that I'm in today, I just couldn't.

Well, THE GOOD THING is that you talked. Just make sure that you keep talking. I'm sorry to hear about your mother's brother.

I have ALL OF YOU covered in prayer!

Thanks for the prayers. Mom told me today that it doesn't look good for her brother. He's in ICU. His kidneys are starting to shut down. I know prayer can change things, so keep him in your prayers. His name is George.

Thanks again for your prayers.

I'm so sorry. I don't have any advice to offer other than "hang in there". I will pray for your Uncle George.
