Being a caregiver

I totally agree with you Brandy.
When Nate got sick I was incredibly scared we would lose him and he came close.
I spent as much time as I could with him and it was very hard with him being 100 mi away and me being still a newlywed of 8 mos.
I felt so torn between being home and being up where Nate was.
I would have done anything I could to make him better but only medical procedures and time could help him.
He has been home for a month now and though it was kind of hard at first to figure out what to do, it is getting easier in some ways but still a challenge.
I just keep going though because I love him so much and want so much for him to get better.
My super understanding husband was great throughout the whole ordeal with Nate being so far away. It has brought him and both my sons very close also.
I know without his love I don’t think I could have made it through.
Nate says the same thing about us but I can’t imagine it being any other way.
