Her surgery went completely fine, too. She felt great afterward upon receiving pain medication, and she was thrilled to see her husband when he arrived to pick her up.
But, ever since she’s started recovering, her husband has been acting really ticked off and distant.
“He told me I was cold, didn’t take his feelings into account, and that he would have liked to ‘support’ me,” she revealed.
“And that I have no right to ask for support now when I wouldn’t accept it earlier.”
She also admitted that, yes, she does want her husband’s support right now. She currently needs some help with things like getting around their house, making meals, and getting dressed.
“And I did not need his help when I was unconscious, but I guess I can see why he might be feeling rejected?” she wondered aloud.
So, with her husband still so upset with her, she’s now unsure if refusing to let him “support” her in his own way during the surgery was really a jerky thing to do.
Do you agree that family members being present in hospitals does more harm than good? Regardless, since she was the patient, was it up to her to decide what kind of support she needed? What should she do in this sticky situation?
