Life outside the burn unit
My wife is home. She's healing slowly. The kids are healing slowly. And, I guess, I'm healing slowly. Tonight, I went to a party with a bunch of friends out on Long Island. My kids spent the night with their grandparents, and I'm here at my friend's house unable to sleep. I'm feeling very guilty about not being with my wife.

If you don't take care of yourself then you can't take care of your wife. Keep your chin up!
Hey it's OK. Probably good for all of you. Gives your wife time to organize her thoughts and start to put this terrible experience in it's place without the need to attend to others. Gives you the same chance. Healing is not all group, some of it you have to go through alone. Got nothing to do with love or commitment. I needed alone time to get it all together before I could share with my husband and I'm glad I did and he gave me the time to do that. Our hardship helped us to have a deeper relationship and yours will also. Ditto for the kids. Hang in there and get some sleep. It's all gonna take time. Our prayers are still with you.
