This has quite possibly been the worst week for Mr and Mrs Skt in the history of the skt’s. Wife and I get the flu. She wakes up Friday morning and can’t breath, has a massive fever. I take her to urgent care, they find she has the flu, pneumonia and strep throat. Off to the hospital in an ambulance they send her. She’s been in the ICU ever since on a breathing machine, completely incapacitated.
So I’ve been running around back and fourth to see her and trying to keep the house hold in order and my flu is just getting worse and worse. Our 5 year old has been staying with in laws to keep her from getting sick and ive been sleeping at our house alone.
Last night I was in a massive amount of pain in my back. I was pouring sweat, shivering cold, running a 104 fever and could barely breathe. I tried calling the in laws around 300 in the am but they didn’t pick up so I decided to make my way to the living room and lay on the couch by the fire. That’s all I remember. When I woke up my father in law and fire & rescue were standing over me. I had left barely intelligible messages on my inlaws VM’s saying I wasn’t going to die but I probably might. They rushed over and almost broke down the door before they found the spare key.
So here I sit in a big fancy hospital room with a near fatal blood infection, bilateral pneumonia and the worst flu imaginable. And on the other side of town, my beautiful wife has even more to worry about aside from her health.
On the plus side, 2018 can’t get any worse at this point (sure it can and probably will) so just gotta be positive. Please pray to your respective deities for the skt’s.
