Well, I have officially been off of the TPN for 3 days...yes, three days.  I woke up this am fine.  Had a cuppa coffee, went to a movie...Four Christmases (HYSTERICAL) but, I digress...  Came out of the movie HUNGRY...this is where it all goes south.  I went to Chipotle...okay not the best choice for the girl who gets ulcers every 5 seconds...but, again...HUNGRY.  I got a steak bowl...I ate a bite of steak and horrible stabbing, burning, gnawing pain ensued.  So, I went around the steak and ate the veggies and beans.  Pain has continued...I called Dr. Mo...he said to come in. 
I want to, I need to ...but, I have a huge problem...my grandfather is dying in hospice care right now.
I am a nurse and so, I get to give the insulin shots, take the blood pressure, sugars, etc.  I have to help dress/bathe/do all the dirty work.  I don't mind a single bit.  In fact, I am thrilled that I can be part of this process...because I know HE feels safer and is happier having me there.  If I go to the hospital, I will be there no less than four days. 
I also have four children in my care and my husband, who is a police officer, is working his weekend and is on shift until Monday morning at roughly 2am.  I know that it would be better to be in the hospital...but, I cannot bring myself to go. 

So, I would love it if y'all would pray for the pain to start to die down...for me to get through the weekend and go on Monday.  I know I won't get a scope until then and so, I would essentially be there doped up for 2 days and that doesn't sound fun to me.
I'm sooooo tired of this routine.  I want SOME sort of normal back.
