Sleepless night….

Thinking about Troy’s last text to me. He was getting ready to sleep and he wanted to say good night to me, Sadie and Lucy. Then something happened. His breathing got worse and they had to put him on the ventilator in the middle of the night. We would never talk again. He would never come home. My world was about to come crashing down. It would never be the same.

worsening symptoms….

Troy’s breathing continued to worsen the next day, it was hard to believe how much had changed in just one day. He was really starting to struggle to breathe, and it seemed the meds weren’t helping at all. As I look back 10 years, I can see it all unraveling. So many prayers were being said for him, but his symptoms continued to worsen. It was all surreal, like this can’t be happening, but it was. The Sunday prior was Father’s Day, I could tell he was feeling worse than usual. I stayed home from church because I was afraid to leave him. Little did I know that the week would continue to go downhill for him.

Sad memories….

Ten years has passed since Troy went to the emergency room and never came home. They admitted him to the hospital and later they put him in his room. He was diagnosed as having pneumonia. He seemed to be doing ok when I left the hospital that day but things would take a turn for the worse before the night was over. He was moved to ICU and from there everything was on a downward spiral. To be continued….

Happy Mothers Day….

Happy Mothers Day to all those mothers out there past and present. Those who devoted their lives to changing dirty diapers among other things. Who spent their time taking care of their children. Who always put their children first. You’re what makes the world go round. Hope you know how much you’re appreciated and loved. May you have a wonderful day and feel all the love. 💕
