Hi again!

I haven't been on in so long...it's been crazy/busy here and then in the end of September, my husband had an emergency quad bypass.  He had what is known as "the widow maker".  I thank God I got him in on time!   They told me it was days, not weeks, b/f I would have found him dead(he is 40).  He also has COPD and was just dx'd w/ T2 diabetes. 
He was in the hospital for 10 days and then had to go back a week later to get 2.5 litres of blood drained from a lung.  As he was in ICU that time, our 14 yo daughter, who is a T1 diabetic, ened up waking up the one morning(after excellent bgl's all weekend) vomitting.  My dad rushed her into the hospital and she was put into ICU...pancreatitis...and on a morphine drip. 
It's been nonstop.
Obviously, my dh can't work, I had to take off b/c of him and my daughter, so we are a no income family, but that's ok b/c I at least have both of them alive.

Please pray that they both get better(and my other two kids stay healthy) and that our house sells quick and our move back to FL is smooth(we plan on leaving next month). 

My husband is going through terrible depression, which they said is to be expected after what he has gone through, but it is so hard to see him like this.
I keep telling him to keep the faith, and he does at times, other times he's just so deep in a slump.

OK, I've rambled enough.
God bless...and thank you...

Hi DovesWings,

It's great to see you here again. I'm sorry to hear the problems that you are facing though. My prayers will be with all of you as I know it is hard on you also when the family is going through such trials.

Thanks all...
I really appreciate the prayers!

It seems like when it rains, it pours.  Last year ,around the same time, both of them were each in the hospital(s) again...but for less serious, just double pneumonia and DKA. 

I'm just standing in faith that all will work out all around.

God bless...
