and i don't mind you using the term son. I am raising him like he is

Posted by AceFrehley User icon on August 28, 2026, 11:45:53, in reply to "how's your son handling all this?*"

but he's not. and that's a big difference in our relationship. So the word doesn't bother me but I just want you to understand the dynamic.

I don't call him son because he doesn't want me to. And he doesn't call me dad because he doesn't want to. If he was into it, i'd be all in. I just don't use the terms son/father out of respect for his wishes.

Early on he looked at us and said "i don't want to call you mom and dad." Sure we were a bit heartbroken but I said to him "it's ok kid, you call us whatever you want."

I think he took it just a bit too far though. Cause now he just calls me asshole.

You should apologize

also there is a disconnect. He does care about us a lot. But we aren't mommy and daddy. So it's different. This isn't the woman that birthed him, nursed him and changed his diapers. And that's ok.

He's also just so into himself because he's that age and he's generally always been kind of oblivious.

So the surgery was successful. They removed far more clots than the could see in the scans. That's very good.

And everything was going pretty normal but then she had an infection so that had to battle that. And then she had a large amount of fluid accumulating around her heart. So they had to see if they could handle that with meds. The meds weren't working so they put a drain in the and had to let it drain for a few days. Then once drained they had to make sure it wasn't filling up again.

As of today they felt comfortable removing the drain. They think she's fine. They will do one more xray in the AM and they expect it to be clear. If so I pick her up. The xray is at 5 am and i was going to leave around 8 am after i get the kid out the door. So that should work.

With any luck, she'll be in her own bed tomorrow.

So that's nice.

What a long road

I'm glad her breathing tube is out. For sure.

I didn’t go into detail, so I get it. But it was one of the worst moments of my life.

Posted by Potomac User icon on August 7, 2026, 12:27:12, in reply to "I didn’t go into detail, so I get it. But it was one of the worst moments of my life."

At my age, I have heard many stories about complaints about the prep and the procedure. I have no complaints about mine, and sometimes would think when hearing whining: tell me when you’ve had something major, not this. Like Trixie’s and whatever happened with you.

Colonoscopies are a breeze. I’ve had several since my colon cancer diagnosis

Posted by OskeeWowWowDig User icon on August 7, 2026, 12:48:34, in reply to "Reminds me of my two colonoscopies - sort of"

On my first one. The breathing tube was when I had open heart surgery to repair my aortic aneurysm.
