My brother called me at work a little after 3 pm, Jonah is extubated and resting in the NICU. Everything went very well. His cardiologist is very happy with his colour and vitals. He had a large ncision made from the top of his shoulder, down his side to his hip. But they didn't have to open his chest, or stop his heart, so these are good things. My brother sounded great. Thank again for the good thoughts.

Jonah is going to be some pissed off when the general anesthetic wears off completely

What a relief.

Well pissed off is not so bad, means he is fighting! Jessica I am glad to hear it went well, you are all still in my thoughts and prayers. Keep us updated!!

Monday.














Yep.

[BeiNtelligentLater]

Gosh such a resounding recommendation for the day!

Ohhhh Monday. Not looking forward to this one. My husband and I had a discussion this weekend and we will be separating in the next month or so. Fun fun. It's something that needs to happen, and in the end, it'll be much better for both of us - it's just not a fun process. We both took off our rings yesterday. I'm just wondering if it's something that people ask about.

The worst part is that neither of us will be able to care adequately for our dog alone. I've contacted the local golden retriever rescue about getting him placed with someone. I think I'm saddest about that. *Sigh*

So. Onward with Monday, I guess. All I can do is face the day bravely.

yay, if you know if your heart that going your separate ways is the right thing, then other than some routine changes you should get through it fine. I know when my first husband left (finally) it was celebration time for me, the whole world was lifted off me.

Wow, giving up your dog...now that I could never do.

[yay4bnl]

The dog thing... it's really eating at me more than anything. I love my pup to pieces. But I know that it's the best thing for him. He will be neglected if it's left to one of us to take care of him, and that's not at all fair for him. I'm going to have to take down the pics I have up of him at work though, because every time I *think* about him, I start crying. *Sigh*

But as for the actual separation... I'm really not too broken up about it. I mean, it's not like it's a huge chaotic mess and we're fighting on the time. So in that way, it's sad - he's a good friend who I've spent the last eight years with. But we're basically roommates at this point and not very compatible ones at that. I just want it to be over and done with at this point, but it's going to be dragged out a bit for financial reasons. I kind of feel like I'm waiting for life to begin again right now.

Sorry to hear what you are going through Yay. I don't think there's anything better than a good marriage or worse than a bad one. I have done the "married but just uncompatible roommates" and it bites.

I am sorry about the dog though. It is a shame there is no way you can keep him. I would be lost without my babies.

Sorry for your loss.

It's a long weekend here in Canada, Victoria Day weekend to be exact. I just got home from seeing Jonah in Vancouver. He was discharged from the hospital yesterday, and will have a follow up visit hopefully tomorrow,then they come home! Yay! He looks great, is still in lot of pain and having difficulty walking, but he's doing alright, Amen.

Yay, so sorry to hear about your separation. It's difficult no matter what the situation or reason. I hope everything goes smoothly and you get the details worked about. And I'm very sorry about the dog. Pets become your family and it's not easy to give them up. You are doing it for the right reasons though, you'll find a good home for him/her. Take care.

Monday was hectic for me...picked up 19hrs worth of shifts woohoo!!!

Great news on jonah....wanatanaka is working well!!!

To yay big hugs for you in this stressful time...hopefully its not too painful - we are all here!!

[binskki]

yay, I am also sorry to hear that you are going through such a hard time, but I agree wholeheartedly with surprising that the "married but just roommates" thing sucks the royal raw donkey hoof.

I found that no one really seemed to notice when I took my ring off...either that or they were just not gonna go there! I found it was a huge relief, though, both to take the ring off and to have decided at last what was going to happen. The whole agonizing navel-gazing "what is the right thing to do?" time was truly horrid. Once I was able to look what was happening in the face, it was still hugely sad, but not gut-wrenching.

And everything has been so incredibly much better since the divorce that I can't even begin to express it. The feeling that I should somehow have been feeling love and supportiveness (is that a word?) and committment to someone that I had been just living with in a desolate, lonely, empty way for years was awful...it felt like I was lying, and failing both my husband and my kids on a daily basis.

You're in my thoughts and prayers, yay...be strong, cause when you bottom out the only good thing is that you know it is going to get better. I swear. <hugs>

Jessica, thank goodness Jonah is out of hospital.

[BeiNtelligentLater]

Jessica that is great news. My thoughts and prayers still include you and your family.
