Prayers and Happy Thoughts Needed...

May 24, 2006 12:28

Okay, I'm kinda scared at the moment:

James has been stressed out for the past two or so weeks.  He had a shit load of 12-page papers to research, write, and submit -- along with being a chaplain/teacher at the retirement home.  He and I were also going through the hustle & bustle of looking for apartments, scheduling viewings, and filling out applications -- RUNNING EVERYWHERE.  Lately there's also been the hassle of organizing a move that couldn't be coming at a busier or more inconvenient time.

It's happened before, but now it seems a little more severe: HE'S HAVING CHEST PAINS and ARM PAINS.  He also says he can tell his blood pressure is high -- along with his pulse.

Granted, part of it is because he's one of those people that internalizes his stress and he falls victim to what I call "weiner dog syndrome" aka "Dachshund Disorder"  (i.e. everything is a problem and -- until the problems are solved -- eating and physical/emotional well-being are out the door).  Nicholas Varnado also has this problem.

But, since this is still happening every day and things are getting a little easier now and the problem isn't really letting up, he's going to have to see a doctor.  In fact, he may have to go to the emergency room, TONIGHT.  Needless to say, I'm worried out of my mind!!!  I'm trying not to think the worst of this situation, but it's really hard to see past it.  What if it's something serious??  I mean, I hope it isn't, but it COULD be!

May is awful, sometimes!
