I am glad he is getting some help for his stress and his health. He seems like a big sweet teddy bear.

Thank you everyone. Its been S-T-R-E-S-S-F-U-L around here. A blur of doctor's visits and sleepless nights. I came home from work early this afternoon because I couldn't even spit out a sentence right.... I'd say something like "Here's your total on the pen, use this paperwork to place it safe on the signature." Instead of "here's your paperwork with the totals, you'' want to put it in a safe place. We'll need your signature at the bottom, you can use this pen" Scary thing was people understood what I meant! I left at 2:00, went straight to bed and didn't wake up til almost 6:00

Hubby has felt a bit of relief since I last wrote. He found out LATE last night that the therapist will sign off on paperwork to get him out of work for an indefinite period. ~WHEW~

I don't care what his not working does to our finances. We've been in money trouble before and survived. We'll do it again. We need him healthy and happy again.

Does he have any sickdays to use before FMLA kicks in??

I've been out of sick days since about October, and am now using intermittent FMLA for when I can't deal with work and people.

He has over a month of sick days saved, plus he's "banked" a lot of days in addition to that. He won't have to worry about going back to school for the remainder of the year. He will hopefully find another job before we have to worry about his disability insurance kicking in.(whoohoo, he paid for that without knowing it for years!)

Now all we have to do is get Ashley in order...... yeah right I have the feeling that now he's home, he's going to be seeing things he never noticed before. and he's going to be telling her to shape up or ship out. He almost did the other night when she tried to claim I was rude to her friend when the girl dropped Cam off after babysitting. She didn't know he was standing right behind me when the whole encounter happened. He saw me be perfectly friendly and polite. She tried to say I was rude and b*tchy to her friend.... he told her that the girl was LOOKING for signs of b*tchiness because thats the picture Ashley paints of me to her friends, and to stop her attitude towards me and to get out of his house. She sped out of the driveway so fast we have black lines from her tires.

Kim, I am just seeing this thread and was glad to read when I got to your last post that things will be moving in a better direction. I hope he will be able to relax and get his BP under control and healthier days will be ahead for him.

If she only knew that this sort of behavior is contributing majorly to her dad's stress. *sigh*
