I can't sleep.
My husband shattered his wrist and is in hospital in the country, about 2 hours away.
He broke it doing a jump on his motorbike. He snapped it in half and rotated it and shattered the joint. He is going in for a operation tomorrow.
I woke up this morning not expecting this and didn't even get a kiss from him when he left.
Just depressed here and lonely. My sister took the kids to her house, because it was a planned sleep over and I am all by myself at night with noises.
My old chat rooms have gone all weird since yahoo changed them. Nothing to do but complain to you. Sorry. Any suggestions would help. I am not really into TV.

He is on heavy pain killers and is non responsive. Also I like being close to home if this sleeping the night thing doesn't work out with my sister. My daughter has night terrors. Its 10pm here in Australia. My daughter has a birthday party at 10am and my sister only lives a block away, so want her home to get dress for the party. She has been really looking forward to it.

But, I thought I was doing something nice by letting him go motorcycle riding with his brothers and thats how he had the accident.

The house is spotless and I prepared his favourite meal that he wont eat. SO don't really know what everyone is talking about. Its easy to assume what other people are like isnt it?

How about planning things you can do to celebrate when he is better, get really wrapped up in your thoughts of all the good that is to come. How about baking/cooking, making some nice treats for your kids when they come back tomorrow.... just keep your mind occupied.
Can you go and sit with your sister? If your daughter is there anyway? x

I am very sorry about your condition I hope he'll get well soon. Maybe you can have a good hot bath then have some wine or something play some soft music and try to read your favourite books. I know right now the words printed in books will appear like some silly drawings but you can try to concentrate.
Or you can have a pen and a notebook to write down your thoughts and further plans with your husband. It sounds old fashioned but keeping your hands and brain busy may do good.


Best luck

Write your husband a love letter. Tell him how much he means to you and how much you miss him. It's funny how it takes a tragedy sometimes to show us how much we take those around us for granted.

If the house needs it, perhaps you can do some house work. Granted it may not be the most grand thing to do, but it may be a help for your husband when he gets home from the hospital.

You may also want to think about ways to help your hubby when he gets home, as he's not going to have the use of at least one of his hands when he gets home.

P.S. If you can bake, try making some cookies for him, or take some chocolate cookies in from Walmart. The way to a man's heart is often through his stomach!

2 hours is not too far away, get ready to celebrate your anniversary with your husband at the hospital.
Call the hospital first and see if you can bring, let's say a cake, strawberry cover chocolate, etc., a gift, and a camera.
He has a problem with his wrist so it's not a problem with anything contagious or debilitating. Make your and your husband's day a memorable day.

If you love your husband then why are you NOT with HIM? I would not care where my husband was if he was in the hospital I would find away to be with him no matter what!! I would never be sitting in front of our computer trying to chat with anyone!! I would be on the phone trying to get to him!! He is the love of my life, the light of my life nothing would ever keep me from my husband in his time of need!! NO matter what else is going on if he is sleeping or wide awake he would have me with him at his side!!! Why are you on here instead of trying to be with your husband????

Its not silly to miss your husband, he is your other half, you are so used to waking up in the morning, and talking to him. You need to get you some rest while your kids are away. Just think that he will be ok and will come back home to you.

SNAP out of it...he is alive not dead and he is 2 hours away. Spend this time with your kids and hang with friends or go to the hospital so your near him.
