Guess what! I'm home. My request to come home, paired with a red cross message from my wife was enough for the local leadership to send me home for 2 days. I'm unbelievably grateful for this chance to help out Nikki. I have no doubt that she'd be able to cope without me, but I'm especially glad that I'm able to come home to support her.
My parents and other family members either don't know I'm home or are too far away to visit. Honestly, I like it better this way in this particular instance. I know they mean well, but I came home for my wife. I'm here to help her, and visits from random family members isn't really what we need right now. Sometimes healing just goes better when there's nobody around poking at the wound.
