Dear Diary,

I can't believe it has come down to this. Tim and I had to figure out a way for him to sleep without the baby waking him, or the bed moving at night because I have to keep getting up to deal with Zack (he is teething, so not lots of sleep going on). We came to the realization that maybe he should sleep in the boys room, and Zack can then sleep in our bed with me. I hate to whine, but I am not happy that yet again due to the accident, so much has to change. I don't believe that Tim and I may have to spend our nights away from one another. He has such a hard time falling asleep, and if Zack wakes him up, he has to deal with the pain in the middle of the night. I can't stand that we are having to sleep apart. I am heartbroken that this is what could be our future.

Yesterday he had the doctor give him a higher dose of medication, so maybe that will help. I suppose we are hoping that the doctor we are going to see on Tuesday, for a 2nd opinion, can offer some light at the end of this very dark and long tunnel. Whoa...after having said all that, I realize that compared to so many others, we have it sooo good. My husband can still work, although in a ton of pain, but he refuses to stop. My husband can still walk, talk, laugh. My husband is still here. So, diary, no more whining...I will thank God for another blessed day to spend with my gorgeous husband. I am truly blessed.

signed,
A grateful wife
