Oh Sarah, I'm so sorry. That must be so scary and isolating. Is your pdoc back tomorrow? Because if he is I think you should call and see if he'll do anything before your appt. just to get you some relief sooner.

I know you feel a lot of responsibility but it's still ok if you need to go to the hospital. Your family will find a way to work things out, just like other families do when there is a need for hospitalization of any of a million reasons. It's ok to take care of yourself first. You know how when you fly they always tell you to put the air mask on yourself first in case of an emergency and then help children because you can't help the children if you have have passed out from lack of oxygen? It's true on the ground too.

Please keep posting if it helps.
