I've got to vent!
Yesterday was a hectic day.... the last three days have been hectic. Dad is still in critical condition. I've been driving to the farm to feed the animals every night, sitting with him some during the day, doing the laundry for them since mom is staying with him, taking care of the kids, and trying to run the household. I feel like I'm doing it all myself.
I'm pissed with the doctor... had it not been for him sending dad home with fluid in his lungs TWICE, we wouldn't be in this position. The doctor accidently marked him to go without breakfast the day before yesterday so he went without some to eat from 6pm-12 pm which really pissed me off, so I got up yesterday morning and went grocery shopping and took him a load of things to have in case they do it again. The doctor's bedside manner is down right rude. I've told mom I want dad sent to a more advanced hospital but with her mental compacity, I don't think she really understands the whole situation. I tried to convince her to tell them to do the chest tube to let all the fluid drain continuously instead of risking letting the antibiotics take care of it, which it hasn't the last three treatments, or instead of taking a needle and drawing just enough fluid off his lungs. I'm irritated, to say the least. I'm about to explore my options of what I can do to become the medical power of attorney. I've got to go see my therapist this morning after I go to the hospital to take mom and dad some things. It's been storming through the night, so I've been up with my daughter telling her it's okay, and finally got her back to sleep.
My ex husband is taking this time to aggravate me and pick arguments. He keeps calling me asking me if she's studied her vocabulary, her spelling, her multiplication tables. YESSSSSS! But the test is four days away and the reason he is asking is so that he doesn't have to help her study considering the test falls on his visitation days. Sometimes I'd like to pull my hair out when he acts this childish.
I'm tired, I'm pushed to my limits, and I'm about to blow up on the doctor and my ex husband.
I've got a lot to talk about at my appointment with the therapist this morning.
