Surviving Chaos: My DH's Tooth Extraction and Family Illnesses

[apriljc]

My DH had three teeth pulled yesterday by and oral surgeon and he also has possibly a sinus infection. What a baby. I think they cut his feet of too because he cannot get up and do anything. He did go to work today which he probably shouldn't have because now today it is all a lot worse. My 5 year old son has a sinus and ear infection and my 3 year old son's allergies are in overdrive. I think I am going to go insane with 3 boys in my house who are all ill. The biggest baby is of course my DH. Yesterday and tonight has been can you get me this and get me that and I just can't get up.
Sorry that you all have to listen to me vent but I just can't take it any longer.
Thanks for listening.

A few years ago my Dh had that done and I figured he would be about the same, but luckily he wasn't. But on the other hand when he has a little tummy ache he is the biggest baby in the house and most of the time I am not very sympathetic, I go to work no matter what and if he has an upset stomach he stays home, I am finally turning him into a 'man', lol, and telling him to tough it out, he used to be really bad. But I have 4 boys to baby I don't have the energy for a 5th HUGE baby. Sometimes he gets upset with me, because I usually don't baby him, but he gets over it.

Thanks for making me laugh. The DH finally went to the Dr today and told me that he just has a cold but the doctor gave him a shot and put him on 3 diffent medicines. My 5 year old son also has a ear and sinus infection so he is on medicines and aerosol treatments and my three year old just coughs like allergy coughing. The weather here has been crazy. One day it will be close to the 80's and the next it will be in the 40's. It has been like this for several weeks. No wonder why everyone is sick, not just my family.

You're making me really look forward to the oral surgery I have coming up. Let's just say I'm glad it's not happening just before Thanksgiving.

You will be just fine Kitchen Guy. I have had oral surgery and I didn't think it was that bad. My husband is being a baby and he is sucking it all for what it is worth. Good luck and let us know how it all goes. If it makes you feel any better I am having nasal surgery in Jan.

You haven't heard the entire (hint hint hint) story and it's even worse than that. However, in the overall scheme of things, it's a small price to pay.
