Last Month was not so friendly to us. I had been busy in my work as well as to my studies. And my husband James is busy building our house so we can move in this month (hopeful). But I doubted it now since something not good happen to my husband.
Just the other week, my father and my husband was ready to go home after working and building our own house for the whole day. They have each own pedal bike to ride home. My papa went on the road first knowing that James will follow. Since my papa still have some errands to do at home (pasturing the carabao and cow), he didn't wait for James.
While James left there getting his bike, he came across to this roof where there was an un-pound nail. Looking at it, he was itching to make it done. So he climbed into the ladder to get it hammered. As he reached halfway to the top, he lost his balanced and causes the ladder to shake and he had no where to hold. He was thinking either to jump or not. If he won't jump, his head will bump to the corner which will cause more worst. So he jumped, but ALAS it was a wrong timing. As some knows that my husband's legs were in so much surgeries before because of the accident he had been through. He undergone many operations. His right leg works good than his left one. And now the worst is he landed on the floor with his left leg. This leg of him cannot bend no more due the stainless that once being put inside to support and help the bone connect each other. So it ended that he broke his ankle.
James foot after one week!!! |
Crutches my Papa built for James!! |
Its already 2 weeks passed by and still he cannot walk by himself. Although time fly so fast but never I missed a time to take care of him. I still manage to divide my time for the extra care for him. It hurts me seeing him in the situation. If I can only carry him every time he moves to one place to another I would. I sometimes took him to town and park to passed time by. I gave him bath every other night (his request since he mainly do nothing for whole day but sit and read the bible). I massage his foot sometimes and it feels good to him. And while doing it, it made me wish if I can only have a share of his pain I would so that it wouldn't be as painful as it is to him". But there's nothing I can do but to be always there for him and love him in that way he will feel as ease.
Took James and the boys in the park after church!! |
So April was not as good as the Month of March for us. But still we are thankful to GOD that there is no major worst things happen. Yeah my husband broke his ankle but it could be worst if it was his head. GOD save the month for us. And because of what had happen I am loving my husband James even more.
With our some church friends!! |
