yesterday my husband had to get a tooth pulled (my poor dear!) and because he has a pre existing condition (Chron's disease) his appetite dwarfs mine. for him being three and a half years older than me and us both being in our 20's i can pretty much out eat him on any occasion, anywhere. (and i am your average, healthy girl!) combine that with taking high doses of pain meds on an empty stomach and you got a miserable evening with a throbbing mouth.
so i took care of him as any good wife would and went to the store for the essentials: yogurt, bananas, orange juice, cranberry juice, and Jell-O. because i didn't think to call to see if i was forgetting something i ended up making three trips to the grocery store. once Jordan had all his gear in place he was able to play hours of video games, because he said it kept his mind off the pain. even though last night was pretty restless i enjoyed taking care of the man i love.
today he was able to keep all his food inside his tummy so that he could take his meds. he is so precious and thanked me for taking care of him which made me think how thankful i was that we could both help each other in ways we needed it the most.
