View Full Version : Caught off guard!

We got through the holidays and our friends a family had left...I wasn't expecting to be caught off guard when I saw the home health truck pull into the driveway. I had forgotten we still had the pumps that Macie used and they were here to pick them up. That was our life-line for Macie and a huge part of why we were able to have her at home during our final days and I wasn't quite ready to let them go...but had no choice. This is all is still so very fresh, and I'm sure there will be more days like these in similar ways, but I just wasn't ready today. The truck driver just held me while I cried and went on to tell me how God had special ones that he needed back sooner than we are ready to let them go...it was comforting, but I don't think he had any idea of the pain running through me. Other than our personal belongings and the memories in our hearts, that was the final link to our lives at the hospital being driven away...a chapter in our lives had closed and I didn't see it coming.

Someone should have called to let you know before hand they needed to come pick up Macie's equipment. I'm so sorry this happened~ I can't believe someone didn't bother to call you first!

Jinger,
I am so sorry that you were put into this predicament, I also think that they should have had someone call to let you know they were coming. I talked to Macie and Adam last night and I told them both to hug each real tight and think of it as us hugging them. I also had a talk with Adam telling him I really wanted a dream of him playing and Jesus rocking him to sleep. Well he did not give me one. :( BUT instead he gave one to his niece, which even better. She woke up this morning and said "mommy I had the best dream ever!!" I said, you did tell mommy all about it. So she went on to say "well I was there with Adam and I was dressed up real pretty like a Princess, and he was there with me. He is okay mommy, and his mommy (my sil) will have an okay baby soon!" I asked her an okay baby, what does that mean? She said" it will be okay and it will be here with us." Then she went on like it was no big deal, but to me it was what I needed. I will now have to sit back and see what happens. Thought I would share this story with you. (maybe it will make you feel better:confused: ) You should have called me if you needed someone to talk to after the Home Health guy left. I would have listened that is what I am here for. I will pray that Macie can send you a dream, sometimes I think it makes our day. Let me know if you need me for anything!!
