He had to be flown to a trauma center 2 hours away from where we live. He had surgery on a broken spine and is doing well, although he is in ICU still.
Here is the thing that has got me torn to pieces... We have a 3 year old daughter that my husbands, brothers, wife has been watching. I miss her terribly because I have been staying at the hospital through this whole ordeal (although i did go home late saturday night to see her, and came back sunday afternoon.)
I know i need to be here with my husband, but i miss my baby soooooo much. Can someone please give me some advise? I would appreciate it more than anyone could know. Thanks in advance.

Wow, that's devastating, I'm sorry to hear about all that... I wish there was a perfect solution for you all, but I guess sacrifices have to be made. It's probably too soon for your daughter to see daddy in the condition he's in, but sooner or later he'll miss her to the point where he'd want her to come visit... I'm sure they both miss eachother, already. Hopefully, his recovery speeds up so she can visit along with you when he's in much better shape.
The only thing I can think of is talk it over with hubby and come up with a schedule where you can spend time with both under the current situation... take care!

I was in a similar position only one of my sons was in ICU and the other at home with his grandparents...it is very difficult...my advice would be to leave when you have the chance to and have someone in the family stay with your husband while you are gone...you little girl is probably scared and could you some alone time with you...make sure you explain though when you leave the situation as delicate as possible...kids know more then people give them credit and she even though is young probably understands a little of what is going on...plus maybe when you go home with her to see her you can have her make her daddy cards, so maybe she will feel like even though she can't be with him, he knows she is thinking of him and loves him....Good Luck and I hope everything turns out GOOD!!

First off best wishes sweetie! I'm very sorry! I'm wishing for a speedy recovery for your husband!He is in my prayers! I would go home and get some rest with your daughter than go back to the hospital rested for your husband than spend the rest of the time with him!He needs your support! I know checking on your daughter will make you feel better and if she is with family she is in good hands!Than once your husband gets to feeling a little better get permission to take your daughter up there and see him! I know they both will probably enjoy it! Take care! Best Wishes!

Well i was rear ended 5 years ago and it is very hard to get through. I am sure your parents are thinking of what would have happened and not being with you anymore so it is very difficult mentally. Everyone recovers differently so I cannot say for sure how long until your parents are "normal" again. Just help out like you have been and be available if they want to talk. Also share your feelings with them so they know how it has affected you.

Oh sweetie, I am sorry you are going through this. there really is no win here, as you can't be in 2 places at the same timethe best advice i can give you is cut yourself some slack and know that your child is being well taken care of. She will be fine as you take care of your husband and in years to come, will barely remember this.

Your husband needs you now, and you know your baby is in good hands. can you call and talk to her? Send pictures by email or phone? There are such cool ways to communicate these days. I'm sure she's missing you too, so try to talk or send a picture of you waving or blowing a kiss. good luck to you and god bless you may your husband heal quickly and fully.

You could always have your relatives bring the baby to visit you and daddy. I think it depends upon the severity of your husband's condition. If he is in recovery I think it would be most appropriate and most helpful to your husband to see both you and the baby.
Good luck and God bless!

I'm sure that you're daughter will be safe and secure with your husband's sister in law. Just stay by your husband's side right now.
My prayers go out to your husband.

what do you need advice on ? call her and talk to her, stay with your husband, and call her and let her talk to her daddy, if hes unconscience even.
good luck honey. hope everything goes well. I will pray for your family
