Sorry Reo apologize for doing this

[Genie]

There are a few people out there that always seem to be there for everyone and are the first to step up.

Thanks for all you do and sending prayers that you have the strength to carry your load.

Thanks for everything you do for us all here on LB. You are amazing.

Hope you and your hubby feel better soon.

 

[REO]

I was doing other things and Mary told me she'd posted. I came here and found this. I read through the thread with tears running down my face. Thank you all so much! You all mean the world to me!

I've only told a few about this. Nov 17th Karrel was on the ground working on a truck. His boss and another guy was standing beside him. A co-worker got into his truck and drove off without looking where he was going. The 2 men jumped out of the way, but the fully loaded semi truck's dually wheels ran Karrel over. He had to go by ambulance to the ER. He was very lucky! Just his foot & ankle got hurt! Two broken toes. But it was more of a mess than that. I knew he had soft tissue damage. I knew it was much more. He's been on crutches this past month. It's been hard. I've been trying to do all the work here myself. The guy that ran over him comes when he can to help hay the horses. (where he ran over and ruined my antique street lamp)

We can't afford for him to not work so he still goes to work. I've been trying to sell more horses to lighten the load, but you know how that goes!

His foot has been huge and purple and bleeding all these weeks. It's very upsetting! It's been slowly getting better.

He's had his 2nd Dr appt for the 13th (today) I kept trying to get him to go in before then but he refused (MEN!)

He had been hiding it from me. Well yesterday (his birthday) I MADE him show me. I had no idea that the flesh on the side of his ankle had died and fallen off, leaving a huge, deep wound! It's beyond words horrible! I screamed OMG then chewed him out for not going to the Dr etc. I took a pic of it. Then he left for work and then I broke down and bawled for hours. I'm SO scared!

I sent the photo to his boss, my mom and a few people who I'd told about the accident. My mom hit the roof and called Coke and talked to him and MADE him go to the Dr yesterday. They sent him home to come back today. He just got home. All they did was give him new bandages. He'll go to a wound specialist in a day or two and the have to go to OKC for surgery soon. I don't drive so that co-worker had better come help me!

I'm hoping that after he gets better from whatever they do to him, that I can get my gallbladder removed. I've been having a lot of pain and unspeakable stone attacks since July 4th.

Thank you ALL. I've been so stressed out. I'm so lucky to have my friends.

I love you all!

Oh my goodness, I wish I could throw my arms around you and try to absorb some of your pain. Hope this guy can help you on the farm, and Hubby gets better soon. I also know how painful gall stones can be, so I hope you can find some relief soon. I'm sending hugs, prayers and well wishes for you and Hubby!

 

[ohmt]

Thank you for all that you do! You are appreciated and loved

I hope your husband gets better soon and that you feel better as well.

Take care!

Awww REO, I'm sorry for your struggles. I think its time for Karma to kick in and pay back some of that good you do in the world so I'm going to wish very hard for you and your husband to receive some of the magic this season is so known for.

May you know all the joy, peace, good health and prosperity you so deserve.

Do you all realize that Robin draws those pictures like on the fishing game? Not from anything she looks at, but from her imagination? They look like they should be in a book!

And I ordered some of the wooden boxes that she decorates for my young grandchildren and OMG, are they GORGEOUS! Too nice for the kids to play with, we'll have to keep them up until the kids are old enough to care for them properly. Check out the artwork Robin does, it's really incredible!

I'll be keeping you and your husband in my prayers, Robin. A lady was just run over by a bus locally and her legs are so crushed that they may not be able to save them.

An angel was definitely watching over your husband when he got run over by the semi truck, but the lack of decent medical care since then makes me worry for his foot. I've seen the pics and it's like someone took a fistful of flesh out of the side of his foot and ankle, it's horrendous. *shudder*

Robin, you have such a generous and giving heart, I hope that you and hubby finally get a break and recover. {{{HUGS}}}

 

[minifreishorsefarm]

Prayers for you and your husband both. Cant even imagine what you are going through.

[StarRidgeAcres]

Robin and Karrel are as nice of folk as you could ever hope to meet.

As my mom would have said "just good people." I love you Robin! Hugs

 

[cretahillsgal]

I wish I were close enough that I could come help you feed and stuff at night. I don't know how he is living with his foot the way it is. It scares me too. I pray that the surgery comes soon and you are able to get your surgery too.

 

[targetsmom]

Oh, Robin, I am sorry about what you and your husband are going through. I can't even imagine how stressful that must be, and yet you keep posting on here like everything is fine. Sending prayers that you both have speedy recoveries.

Mary

 

[Sterling]

Rpbin, as you already know you and hubby are in my good thoughts and prayers for good health and quick recoveries for the BOTH of you and may 2012 be a good year for this. Gall bladder surgery is not what i used to be....modern technology and laparoscopic surgery makes for a quick surgery and healing. Go get it done as soon as you can. Thinking of you.

 

[dannigirl]

If there were any way I could pack my duds and come over there to take care of you and your "family" so you could have your surgery, I would be there tomorrow. Just wish there were some way. All I can do is pray and pray I will.

 

[Miniv]

Robin, Feel the LOVE yet?

Sure hope so because you deserve it!

Healing prayers are being sent to you and your Husband for a speedy and complete healing.

Thank you for all that you do for each of us.

 

[Performancemini]

REO; when I read your post of everything that happened and was going on; I just felt like crying. How difficult. I just wish I could do something. I can pray though; for both of you. I know many of us on here will be. Keep that in mind and perhaps that will help you also. You have done so much to give the rest of us a fun and Merry Christmas-I just Pray the God will pour many many many blessing upon you this Christmas and touch and heal you both. With Love and Prayers-

 

[Connie P]

Sending prayers your way Robin, for both you and Karrel. Take care.

 

[REO]

I DO feel the love.

It's the LOVE here that keeps me here.

Thank you all for the prayers. I know they'll help.

The latest is, he has an appt on Thursday with a wound specialist to assesss how to try to tackle it. Then he will be refered to a surgeon and have to have surgery. It isn't a small wound. It looks to go almost to the bone. It looks so bad only the strongest stomached people can bear look at it.

Anyone who'd like to see (and be WARNED!) email me.

I'm so hurt FOR him, I can't hardly stand it.

 

[Maple Hollow Farm]

Oh my gosh, Robin, I am so sorry for all that you and your husband are going through, I hope they will be able to get him healed up and that you will be able to go and have your surgery so you can feel better too! (((hugs)))
