Hello treasured friends!
So glad for all of you.
Sweetpea was admitted to the hospital tonight at 5 and the induction process was started. A medication was given to start the process. There was no progress, so more medication was given at 9 by the physician. Sweetpea was given a sleeping pill at 10, hoping she can get some sleep tonight before they start the pitocin tomorrow morning, probably about 8 a.m.
I am back at their home, as they have two sweet dogs that need some attention. I am going to grab a few hours of sleep and head back there early in the morning. My cell phone is within arms length, and if anything changes during the night, I can be back at the hospital in less than 15 minutes.
I had a lovely chat with the nurses, and I know that sweetpea and son in law are in good hands.
It still was awful to leave sweet pea and come to their home. But I really am not adding anything...but it was hard.
As for DD.
Literally as I was getting ready to head out with sweetpea, DD called for her weekly call night. She was in a cranky mood, and refused to talk to me. I tried to re direct her, and it didn't go well. Then I blew it, and tried to use logic with her and told her that I needed to be with sweetpea and she unloaded on me. That it is always about sweet pea, that sweetpea is my favorite. I then asked to talk to a family teacher, and should have hung up, but didn't. Finally a family teacher interupted the call. I was in tears by then. I told her I couldn't do this and explained what had happened. I was not good. Sweetpea was awesome, as was SIL, and bijou and 13Harley. Bijou and 13Harley talked me off the raddercoaster after I had gone a round or two. So so glad for them.
Did call DD back a few hours later, and she apologized. Big deal. She told me that she was upset that she wasn't with me, and I told her that it was unfortunate, but it was a consequence to her actions 15 months ago. And that she was taking it out on me. She then told me that she had been going to ask if she could come out next weekend when hubby comes to pick me up.
I asked her what she thought now after she had been so awful to me. She got mad at me. I also asked what had happened after she and I ended our first call. She said that she had gone non compliant and left the home.
I was finally able to talk to her and tell her that being with sweet pea is where I was going to be, and that we would discuss this more.
After I hung up, I was shaking. Talked to bijou and 13Harley, AGAIN, and they talked me down again.
All I know is that our next team meeting is going to be interesting. The RTC is telling me that DD is doing so wonderful and that she is ready to come home.
After this little incident, that is so not happening!
Anyway, that is my day! So thankful for all of your prayers.
Heading to bed so that I can get up soon and head back to the hospital!
Truly, so so thankful for all of you!
