past three weeks

Post by Fyodor »

Hi guys,

the past three weeks were very stressful, in a positive and negative way.

On Feb. 28 my daughter Lorena was born, in the middle of the night. On Friday we were allowed to go home, but on the next day I was brought to the emergency room. Massive pain when breathing, pulse was 120 and temperature 104°F. Pneumonia... I was kept in hospital 7 days, during which I couldn't see my new born child. That was very depressing for me, but luckily we have some great grandmothers who stayed at my house and helped the new mother getting used to the new situation. When I was released from hospital, two days later my girlfriend got sick, probably influenza. Luckily it turned out not to be, but still she was weakened, so again we had the grandmothers help out. I myself was just released from hospital, and not totally fit again.

So it took over two weeks after Lorena's birth, to get both parents back up on our feet and getting used to everything.

It is a very stressful new episode in our life, but also a very nice one.

Foydor, your child is beautiful! Congratulations dad and mom!

I actually looked at your profile this morning and thought something was up given your last login. Wish I would have asked what was going on sooner. Glad to hear your wife and you are on the mend.
