My husband and I are 37 years old. This January we will be celbrating our 19th Annivesary. We have 2 children. Our daughter will be 9 on the 27th, and our son turned 4 in September.
On Wednesday morning, at 1AM my husband fractured his Left Distal Fibula (ankle). It is the first broken bone he has ever had. Sure, there have been some illnesses, but nothing that has lasted longer than a week. The doctor says it will be 6 to 8 weeks before my hubby can walk without crutches.
It's Saturday morning, now and I am tired. I have dark circles under my eyes, my skin is dry, and my hair seems a little limp.
This injury has made me a single parent, and given me an extra person to take care of.
I don't know how I am going to make it through this, but I know I can do it. Question is, will I do it with grace, or by the skin of my teeth?
I am blessed with a "mother hen" instinct, but I have only been left to do everything myself a few times, and never longer than 5 days.
This will be the greatest "test" of my marriage. I have decided to keep a record of it here in my Blogs. I will post every Saturday so that I can keep track of everything.
