Coping as best I can

I've had so much going on lately I don't even know where to begin. In the last month or so I've been diagnosed as clinically depressed. I have to say that after having it out with Josh about allowing me time to myself to actually get class work done to the point where I can actually focus things have been a bit better at home. Josh is just pinging away at his degree program and he'll be finishing a little later then he had hoped for because of the way summer classes were scheduled. We also had to pay out of pocket for these classes because all his tuition assistance had been used up for the fiscal year. Eric is growing like a weed. My dad is going through some hell. He's been having some health issues and went to see the neurologist yesterday and the tests they did showed something but they think its the machine and nothing to do with him. Well he's also been having some upper abdominal pain yesterday as well and he ended up in the ER at like 3 this morning and only got home around 1 or 2 this afternoon. When I spoke to him he told me he'd woken up about half past two throwing up and couldn't breathe, his airway had closed up. Well the Dr. said he has some kind of throat infection and he had swelling that had closed off his airway so he's on steroids to help the airway constriction and he's on amoxacillin pills and who knows what else they gave him. If he has any issues tonight or tomorrow and he has to go back to the ER they will be admitting him for observation. So he woke Linda and Grandma and had Linda call her dad to come and get them and take them all to the hospital. I'm glad that I spoke to dad last night about his Dr. visit and that there was a possibility he could end up going to the hospital. I was at least able to let Odie know what was going on because she had no clue and when she called the house this morning close to lunch time that he was at the hospital. I'm glad one of us had a clue what the hell was going on with dad because I know Odie would have lost her mind if she had called me and I'd have been like I don't know what the hell is going on. I knew something was up when no one answered the phone at dads house this morning. I'm hoping that they are all in bed fast asleep. Please God help dad get better.
