He put off having a chest x-ray. Doctor FINALLY got through to him stressing the urgency. He was off work today and went and had lab work and a chest x-ray. I was in the back bedroom working. He was in the living room sitting right by the phone. It rang and he did not pick it up. I walked in and said, "don't you hear it ringing?" He said "oh, I did not know you wanted me to get it." ARGH! Stupidly, i dd not look at the phone until after 5 p.m. and see that it was the doctor's office wanting him to call back. Too late tonight. Won't be able to call them tomorrow until after 4 p.m. I could just scream. I fear that things are not good. I am sitting back her trying to work and keep it together. I keep thiinking of worst case scenario. It took me a LONG time to find him and I am so not ready to think we won't have more time together. Wondering how financially we will make it on my measly salary. We barely make it with his and mine together. He called his mom this am and told her he was having tests. Her reply, maybe you should hold off until you can afford it REALLY? His parents are coming up Saturday. Don't relish the thought.
My heart is going 900 miles and hour and I feel like I am going to burst into tears at any moment. Will let go tomorrow when he is at work.
Please God don't let this be too late. Sorry for rambling. So overwhelmed right now. He yells at me because I put off doctor's visits but look what he did. Don't know why men don't feel the need to go. He has been so crabby lately. I know if he gets bad news that he will say "well, I have to die of something" and will not seek treatment. Hoping his mother does NOT tell his ex as we do not need her hateful comments and insincere carinng act.
It's gonna be a long night. Did not sleep but 2 hours last night worrying and it looks like the same in store tonight.
