Being married to a trucker

by Nikki White
(Atlanta, Georgia)


People don't have a clue about being a wife of a trucker. They look at you like you got it made. "As if!" Being a trucker's wife is a hard job. Being a trucker's wife and a mother on top of that is even harder.

Not only do the wife have to multi-task, housework, laundry, run errands, pay the bills, when and if she receives a check from her husband. But, she also has the task of caring for the needs of their children school work, cooking, after school activities. In if she has an outside job Lord help her.

A trucker wife has to manage and balance the income while her husband is away. She has to do the oil changes on the cars, any repairs that need to be meet, and let's not forget about that forest that grows in the front yard yes, "mow the lawn."

She has to be a mom and dad to the children, along with running her husband errands. A trucker wife has to make sure things run as smooth as possible while her better half is on the road.

A trucker's wife dream of a fairy tale marriage was buried when that eighteen wheel giant pulled up to her front doorstep. Now she has to deal with the love of her life being gone 75% of the time, while she's home alone taking care of the fort.

She has to deal with the public in their opinion that do not have a clue, nor understand what our way of life is all about. She constantly has to defend her husbands profession and the choices that they both make for their family, each and everyday of her life.

She has to deal with being alone and having to protect her family and keep everything secure so her self and her kids will not be harmed if anyone tries to intrude into their space.

A trucker's wife has to deal with her parents and In-laws with their comments and opinions. She has to sit back in smile at the family gatherings and on the holidays when her husband is unable to be home enjoying a nice birthday or Thanksgiving holiday. She has to hold her head high and sacrifice celebrating her wedding anniversary and other special occasions on another day of the year.

When her husband comes home she has to put her life on hold so she can enjoy and relax for the 1-2 days her husband is home. Along with satisfying his needs, washing extra loads of clothes and bedding and put up with his some time grouchiness from being tired and not wanting to go out or visit family or events with her. She has to listen to him bitch about the conditions out there on the road and with the shippers, brokers, and customers. She has to be the support system he needs to release his frustration and pain when the time calls for it. She has to listen to him grip about money, how expensive things are on the road, asking can she cut back on something to make it better for this or that reasons. Like her budget isn't already tight enough.

She has to have trust and faith in her mate, not to accuse him of cheating. A trucker's wife life isn't an easy one. It's a demanding one who has to be independent, strong willed, patient, very tolerant, and understanding. If you really care for your husband you will have no problem with the sacrifices and changes you will have to deal with in the trucking industry.

With trust and communication you will be able to deal with the daily trails and tribulations of the trucking industry. Your marriage will make it!

I didn't ask for this... NEW
by: Anonymous

I have been married for 20 yrs. I have two daughters with my husband and I love them very much. Five years ago, my husband decided to become a truck driver. He told me that he was going to do it and I had no choice in the matter.

I feel that I have been kicked to the curb. I am 54 years old and feel like my life is slowly passing me by, being home alone all of the time other than working and taking care of my daughters.

At first, I tried, but after a period of time, I felt like I didn't know him anymore and when he came home, I felt like I had to turn on a light switch to somehow feel close to him. Then when he left, turn the light switch back off again.

Even my daughters feel that they have been mistreated. They have taken my side (I have told them not to) because they see how lonely I am. I have been told that I am an attractive woman, but I am extremely sad because I feel trapped. I believe in God and do not believe in cheating, but I am so lonely and can't believe my life has ended up like this.

I have told him many times how I feel, but all he says is, "Sorry, but it has to be this way." When it all began, he said five years but now he says three more years.

I don't know what to do. I feel weak and needy and these days. He doesn't even seem to notice me when he comes home. I don't believe in adultery and believe hell is waiting for all adulterers, but the way I feel these days, that may be where I end up.

Lonely NEW
by: Dee

It is really hard being married to a trucker. I always say its like being single and shacking up on week end. If they are home, then. You get lonely and when they come home they are bushed and want to sleep and relax, which is understandable, but she is ready to go out away from home a little bit because she has been stuck in the house all week with kids, bills, problems and everything else that pops up. House hold problems are always there to be solved and figure out a way to work it in to the budget. Yes, being a truckers wife is really hard!

Understand NEW
by: Renee

I have a problem with my husband being on the road. I raised the kids took care of the house and now it's me. He still rather be on the road. Im tired being alone, pretty days are the worst. I get angry upset and my trust has completely went out the door. I have asked him several times to get a job locally. But it always about money...when you die you can't take it with you and your family will only have memories of you not being there. I don't understand anymore. I don't get the reason any more. Time is not forever so why not be with the one you want to be with...cause most days I just don't think it's me.

Love your partner and appreciate what they do NEW
by: Anonymous

My husband is an o/o now. He worked for various companies doing otr work for the first 4 or 5 years after getting his CDL. He did not have his CELL when we got together but it was what he wanted and I supported that just like he supported me becoming a retail store manager which is far from a 9 to 5 job. That's what you do when you love someone.

Expecting everyone even men to work 9 to 5 or to be there for every holiday, birthday or family get together is unrealistic because a lot of jobs just don't allow for that. And when supporting a family alone expect 60 and 70 hour work weeks it's the reality of life today.

I grew up an Army brat and I can tell you that this is no harder on a relationship than being married to someone in the military who can be stationed places they can't take their families for a year or longer. You have to trust your husband and he has to trust you.
Communication is a must. There are a lot of companies that DO NOT provide PAID vacation and if he's not driving he's not making money.

Having worked in retail especially in the electronics and wireless industry I had the opportunity to talk to other drivers male and female and they all said the only way to make real money was to be an o/o. Most companies do allow the wife to ride with them but honestly listening to the women complaining do you ever think about how you would deal with living in a truck? Eating fast food or sandwiches ALL the time? Paying to shower or do your laundry? Being stuck in that truck 12 to 14 hours a day? Not being home when an emergency happens? I have not only dealt with working 60 hours a week, not being able to always schedule time off when he's home because you don't always know when that will be. I have also dealt with my father having a stroke that almost killed him alone, my stepfather's death and funeral alone, and my father's death alone. I had my family but not my husband.

IF YOUR HUSBAND IS CHEATING ON YOU IT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED ANYWAY. That has nothing to do with their job that has to do with them. I lived with 1 man 10 years until he passed away and this is my 2nd marriage. Neither of them were gone all the time. News flash life gets in the way of sex and intimacy and the average couple does not have sex all the time after a couple years. There is temptation everywhere it doesn't matter what job they have. IF YOU ARE CHEATING ON THEM SHAME ON YOU AND YOU WOULD HAVE DONE IT ANYWAY. CHATTING IS CHEATING. If you need to have sexy chats or watch live cams use you smartphone or computer and have them with your partner. If you are worried that they are losing send them pics. Text each other, get him a Bluetooth headset call each other. If either of you feels the need to watch porn who cares better to take care of your sexual needs yourself than to cheat.

I will be the first to say it's hard on a relationship. It takes a special person to make these relationships work on both sides. But any relationship where one or the other travels all the time is hard. Cook your partner a good meal when they are home. Go with them if they have to do things. Learn to be independent you just might like it.

I love my husband with all my heart and appreciate everything he is doing to support us.

Avoid this career is you have a family or married NEW
by: Anonymous

My husband decided on this career after we were already married. Newly married. I was given no input. We have 3 children. 2 are under 7. I would not recoomend this career for ANY and I repeat ANY person with children or desiring a dad for their kids. My husband is never home and when he is the 1-2 days is actually maybe 10 hours of usable time in which he is tired. The strain of everything falling on me has taken a toll and I can honestly say that I have become irritable and nasty and sarcastic to my spouse. This is not the family I wanted and it was forced on me. I am butter and unless a change made extremely quickly and I am not talking about a route job that is 14-16 hour days but a real 9-5 job ( you get my point) this family will not be here when he decides to finally take a real interest in it. I am bored, lonely, and turned off by this job. This does not even include the horrific habits he has developed. The nails as I read too from someone else. The lack of brushing his teeth. Gross and I’m finding myself less and less attracted to him in general. This is a combination of priorities not being in sync, bad ha it’s, and lack of a real relationship. My kids honestly would be better off having another man raise them who could actually be physically present and that isn’t something I take lightly or joke about as my kids now have barely any relationship with their dad. Heck I barely do.

Not for me NEW
by: Newlywed

My husband and I have been married for 7 months. I currently stay at home but that will soon change once I open my own business in a couple weeks. My husband got fired from his job, which led him to start trucking otr. He had a CDL which he never used until now. It's been a month so far and already I know this life is not for me. He has a team driver whom is a single man. If he continues trucking, we won't be married long. I'll get all of my financial affairs in order and leave. We are newlyweds building a foundation and growing as 1. But we can't grow if I only see him every other weekend.

Frustrated Trucker''s Wife NEW
by: Anonymous

I have been marrived to a truck driver for ten years. I have been understanding and loving to my husband. It is starting to take a toll on me lately.I work full time and have a teenage son. My husband changed companies last September and has health Insurance, 2019 truck with tv. At home we have no TV because direct TV costs too much. I have no health insurance. My son is on Medicaid. He is gone longer and longer saying it is going to help us out with bills. There is never any extra money when he comes in. Only enough to pay rent, phone, electricity. We are on the verge of bankruptcy. It is like he escapes to his truck. He hardly calls. I am at the verge of giving this marriage up! Our credit is so bad we will never own our own home, there is barely enough money and I usually am forced to take our money that we don't have and pay for a bounced check so my son and I have food. If my husband would just tell me he understands it would be better. He just escapes to that damn truck and comes home every 3 weeks telling me he is tired. He rests up and is gone for 3 more weeks! My life really ducks right now. I am trying to hold on but I can not stand the loneliness anymore. I work, stay at home because I am so Fricken p oor I can not do anything. This is no life. I have men interested in me all the time and my own husband doesn't seem interested in me. Get tired of working so hard, being neglected a's a woman.

WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE! NEW
by: Anonymous

Ladies I am a female truck driver and if you think for one minute that your husbands out there on the road is not sleeping with those prostitutes that come knocking, you are sadly mistaken. I read that most of you have children and that is the advantage they have on you. I will say this, just mention to him that you want to learn to drive the truck so you could be out there with him and listen closely for his response. You need to protect yourselves when he comes home. If he did not wear a condom before becoming a truck driver but he is now, he obviously picked up something he does not want to give to you. There are husbands and wives, boyfriends and girlfriends who both can drive and they are making lots of money being team. I will pray for you but I would never be in those situations. Your situations are very unsafe. GOD bless all of you.

End badly NEW
by: Anonymous

Girl it was all that in the beging 2010.East Coast He just couldn't seem to be happy with the company's at a company driver. So he finally got his own truck up and going under their authority. But still something wasn't right. Always something with work. But I was making it work with my son and now our new baby 2011 with a move cross country to west coast. Seems like always changing companies and moving us around never setting settle more them a year. He was always to tired to do anything with us. Talked to us like we where dirt. Didn't want anyone around. Got mad if we went any where or spend any money. Everything set him off. Now in 2013 it's gotten worse new baby another new place new job. His got to where his starting not to coming home sometimes and when he does it's a fight. Because I don't like how his trying us. He don't want to talk about what ever it is. It's me and the kids he say. We want to much. We don't do enough around the house. So now 2015 there been another new house several jobs. We are walking on egg shell around him. Because now it's like we can't get him out of the house. He wants to book his own loads and he pick the hi dollar loads only. So he buys things all the time with out talking about it no money coming in. Don't worry I've got this (Boats) and ect. But if kids and I do things no.We don't have it. So by now his out nearly 6 months. So move from central U.S. to West Coast in Jan 2016 comes gets us in March. He goes back to WI to get our stuff in June. Some how gets a bigger unite for storage finds a job. Transfer his mail to a couple friend's house. Don't tell me anything. Say he only going to do the 5 states around WI because he don't think truck up to speed. So don't see anything of him until Christmas. Calls when he wants yell at everyone when he does. Then he gets here finds this to yell and fight about. Starts to toe to toe with my son. Notcing that he want take calls around us. Say it's to loud because of the girls. Want check phone if it goes off for anything. Will always make sure it's put up. Or with him so that can't. His got verbal abuse. So damaging more in other areas of our relationship. By Spring 2017 his bought 2 camper to live and land with out talking to me. I get told it's mine and its not your conser what I do with it. I work for it you dont. I have to ask for anything and everything including bills. But I'm to run the house and ect. There things he wouldn't pay for like repairs on car I had to find away. That was call my mom then to pay her back I had to fiuger it out. So he started moving things out. Then by summer 2017 I've said I know there something going on just tell me and he wouldn't. But he could always say try to leave it's death do us part. He even said it in front of the kids. Now in fall 2017 he got new girlfriend not paying really thing for kids but gets 80% of the truck before tax. He owns truck and trailer. Now buying a place with her. Which fun thing is the woman who was getting his mail. Left her husband. Yep my friend knows how he is and how he been treating us. Some friend. Say tapping out on his kids because they told him they don't like how he talks to them yelling and useing bad words. An that they don't like it when he does that to mommy either and ect. Because it make her cry.That they are upset because they don't have the money for going place and its not mommy fault it's his because he didn't send it. How do you tell a 6yr and a 4yr that? His mad because they are right his wrong he don't like to be put in his place. He don't like I take them to councling to help them deal with this. His mad because I to his pictures down put in their rooms. Why do they need to be all over the house. That I've boxed up his stuff send it to him as much as I could. The rest in garage. His not helping but with my be rent lights water car payment car insurance. I don't work. I've got a service dog he even mean to him. My dog is 17yrs old in dog years. His going blind. I don't think I'll have him much longer. His only 7bls. But he beat on him. I have to get on him all the time. He yell at my dog. I filed for SSA in 2008 been trying since.Been fighting go it in again. Plus he told me after our first daughter was born he dont want me to work until she was in school m-f full time. 7:30am-4pm. But now he want me to work or we can do with out he says. He don't even try to send extra for them for school stuff gas to go place. Food things like soap and ect. Says if I try to take him to court he hide everything change jobs work undertable. If I try custody he have my knoted off. But all this while his doing his things his kids are starting to dislike him just like the older once. One only wants money that's his birth daughter. The 2 adopted boys only want money out of him. An that I'm out of they it maybe a little easyer. I stood up to him on alot of things before or after I found out it. So I wish everyone good luck and well. This wasn't my 1st husband that was a driver over the road and most likely not my last. If I do try again.

New Truckers wife NEW
by: MsStarlight

Nikki,

You just gave some of the best advice. My husband of
10 years has changed careers from being security guard to getting his CDL. He just started training and is in his second full week.

Right now I feel strong because we have been together for so long, but I am not sure I will feel the same way next year. Your advice put me at ease and I know he is doing it for our family and to bring home better pay.

He does want to do local after he trains, but he knows he needs his 2 years of experience first, so if the other ladies on here chose to hang in there with their trucker husbands for 20-plus years on the road, that gives me some possibilities to stay strong.

I will keep track of your blog. I will be needing the support.!!!!

I have an option to get out now! NEW
by: Anonymous

I'm dating a driver, I really like him. He's been driving for 17 years I've been a full time teacher for 10- I'm reading all these stories and I'm starting to change my mind about marrying him. I make great money here in Chicago! His provisions would merely just be play money. I'm already not liking the 3-4 weeks not seeing him, so naturally I cheat. You only live once! My career is great so I don't care really. I don't care if he cheats, I don't really care if I see him when he gets home either. I think I've lost interest. I may need an intellect moreso that gets highly paid for his mental abilities vs. physically ability to drive a vehicle. Yes that's it, I'm uninterested. Plus he is out of shape, his nails are always filfthy, his clothes are always nasty, he isn't well groomed, and ugh nothing about riding in that damn truck with him excites me. It was nice at first, but it's worn off. I'm so not interested and damn sure not looking to marry a driver- thank you for the post. I had no idea! Hell im going to Paris next year, I have no time for him to say he can't go. Fuck that!

Girlfriend of a Truck driver NEW
by: Anonymous

I have been with my boyfriend for 17 years, and all 17 he has been driving. I truly understand what you are dealing with. We have kids from different relationships. They are grown now and I was hoping that he would slow down more now. But nope didn't happen. I dont mind it sometimes but i just feel that its our time now. Also it ticks me off so much that some of these companies dont have riders policies. I think its really crazy for an O/O who wants to take someone on a trip with them. They want them to be A1 employees but they dont let them have the freedom to kill the loneliness on long trips. So yes I understand how you as well as other trucker wives/girlfriends feel.

Trucker's Wife For More Than 25 Years Now NEW
by: Anonymous

My hubby has been a trucker for more than 25 years now and has logged more than 3 million verifiable miles. We raised 3 kids that are all grown and gone now after having put them all through college. The trucking life has been good to us with regard to financial success. Yes Nikki, I understand about holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, etc. In fact we were just talking about that subject recently trying to remember if it was only one or two anniversaries that we had spent together since we married nearly 30 years ago. The life of a trucker and his/her family is not meant for everyone, for sure. We have gotten so used to it that we now joke about having to get to know each other all over again if he should ever retire and stop driving. Honestly, that thought scares me. I have become so used to taking care of things on my own that when he is ever home for more than a couple days at a time, he gets on my nerves and seems to be in the way...lol. But he feels the same way...kind of out of place with nothing to do. It seems that even the most important things in life we have had to discuss and take care of over the phone, with texts and with emails. When we refinanced our home a few years ago we had to have a notary meet my hubby at a truck stop to get his signature on the ton of paperwork included with contract. What a pain. I cannot remember the last time we spent either of our birthdays together and we are both so used to sleeping alone, him in his truck and me here in our bed at home, that we have a hard time sleeping together when he is home. My friends and family don't understand that when my hubby is due home, the rest of the world and everything in it has to take a back seat to his arrival. Sometimes we only have a few hours to go over important issues such as getting our taxes signed and done, getting all his laundry washed, dried and put back in his truck, going through all his paperwork he turns into me, restocking his groceries in his truck, having a good home cooked meal hot on the table (even if it is 3a when he pulls up out front), making sure the house is clean, checkbooks are balanced and about a million other things are done prior to him getting here. But that is the life of a trucker's wife. You either fit into the lifestyle or you let it ruin a good marriage. Its not for everyone, that's for sure. Fortunately we have weathered the years very well as I think he will be in the business till he retires. (He is an owner/operator but has spent many of his driving years as a company driver too.) And there's damn good money in it if you stick with it.

by: monte

it all depends on who he or she drives for. theres a lot of companies out there where you can be home at least 2-3 days a week. Is this his first year? on that first year you have to build up the miles along with the experience and that can be tough. most companies that offer local, dedicated, regional runs where your home 2-5 days a week require 9 months to a year of driving experience before they will hire you. so all I'm saying is if this is his first year driving be patient]]] time will fly by. our first year was similar to your experience but now going on year 2 I'm home every week and were all happy...

Glad to know I'm not alone! NEW
by: Momof3

Wow I'm SO glad I found your article. It's midnight Saturday night and my 3 kids (8, 5, 9 months) are in bed, I'm alone as usual while my husband catches up on sleep with the one night he gets off. We've been together 9 years, I'm 27 he's 34 and owns a large truck company. He started driving truck 2 years into our relationship and started his own company a year after that. I thought things would slow down considering his business has grown so much, he has great employees and makes great money. The first few years were hard getting the business going I helped him so much, I'm the one that got all the accounts and he did all the driving along with 2 great friends he hired. He doesn't do long distance trips anymore (thank God) but he still works around 90 hours a week, his shifts are 12am-4pm, including Friday and Sunday nights so not only do I sleep alone, housework, cooking, homework, social events I do it all alone with my 3 kids. I keep busy and appreciate the big beautiful home we built, my new SUV and being able to give my kids everything bc we literally built this life for ourselves but at times when the dust settles, I realize how lonely I am. He's a great provider and I'm grateful for the hard worker he is, but when your family is suffering, something is wrong. I've talked to him about it, told him he needs to delegate and there's a reason he has employees, I'm now thinking he's a workaholic bc he doesn't NEED to be working this much, he chooses to. My kids need their dad, I need my husband, I need him emotionally and I could really use help with everything that lands on my shoulders! Sorry for my rant.. I just needed to vent and I found comfort in your words. Thank you

A big sacrafice NEW
by: Anonymous

I am so glad not to be alone. I love my husband. He was truckdriving over the road before we got married. I knew it would be hard tasting him away from what he loved so I learned to deal. We've been married for ten years now. I trust God and I trusted that he was doing right while away. He's gone mostly the whole year and the kids and I may only see him 30 days out of a whole year. He cheated on me and I wanted to end it but he doesn't want to. Now I'm having a hard time with trust. I've been a faithful living wife the whole time and finding that out was disappointing because I'm missing my husband because of the distance. It is a big sacrafice that people don't understand. It's a lot of work and takes special women for this job.

My husband is also a cross country Truck driver. About 3 years now. Our 3 children are under 5 and he missed the birth of the youngest. When he first started I tild jim he abs had to quit. I was mom, dad, mechanic, doctor etc lol. And it seemed as if everytime he left something drastic woyld happen.I know someobe else out there is goung through the same thing. Im telling u now. GET A HOBBY. Because bitchibg atvthem only stresses them out and its not gonna change. Ive accepted the fact that hubby has to work, and i cant get paid if he doesent get paid. I was depressed the first 6bmonths. After that i got a hobby. Now when he comes home after a couple days Im readyvfor him to go. Because Im so independent and its like living alone with our children so i like to be alone. But it gets better. Only with TIME. Its rough in the beginning. They have a tough job too. And they want to be home just as much as u want them to be. Now my husband gets awarded at work for best employee and raises and comended for being such a hard worker. Btw we have 3 boys . 1, 2 and 4. Its rough but u have to stay busy. Now we laugh because a month can go by and it seems like a week or two only. With time it gets better. Just stick by your man or woman.

Peace that surpasses all understanding NEW
by: Anonymous

I have been a trucker's wife for 19 years. The industry has taken a total u-turn. Along with dealing with the financial roller coaster, as a wife of a trucker, we must deal with those who think truckers are making enormous incomes. Transportation industries are "lining" their pockets. Restaurants are focused on their pockets, parking is difficult to locate, the food tastes horrible, and showers are expensive.
Some brokers are liars. They cancel loads to get a lower bid from other drivers.
A trucker's wife must trust her husband and vice versa. It is not love to accuse each other of unfaithfulness. A trucker's wife must be patient, kind, understanding, unselfish, helpful, and more. He does not need to hear that the children are disobedient, deal with it yourselves. He is tired, feeling down trodden, and unappreciated. Lift him up, thabk him for sacrificing himself for the family. He is a truck driver because he wants to provide for you. Wives, show appreciation to him. Stand up for him when others do not understand. By the way, you, he and your children are a family NOT the in-laws. There is no explanation needed to them.
At the end of the day, I love my husband and dealing with the positives and negatives of trucking has made us closer to each other and to our Father in Heaven through Jesus Christ. It is He who gives peace that surpasses all understanding.

its a choice NEW
by: Anonymous

It's a choice to be a truckers wife. But from an ATL girl who knows first hand, most are cheating, and half the time have a girl riding with them while the wife is at home saving the day.

Most companies give vacation and time home so I can't see why one wouldn't be home on holidays. I know the roads are rough. I've seen how hard it is out there for truckers. That's why I can't blame them fully for the wrong they do, they get lonely.

But just like being a single mom, truckers wives have to handle a lot. The only difference is trucker wives chose that life. Just like any other career.

Almost complete, a little more to add. Need some more advice...
by: Pregant Trucker's Wife

I could not have worded it better myself. It is re-assuring to read that others feel the exact same and deal with the exact same issues that I am feeling and dealing with my my husband being over the road.

As always, to make it worse. As proud as we are internally about ourselves and our husbands to be able to manage and live with such a hard life decision, the general public seem to all have such a bad view on OTR truckers. They have this stigma against them as if they are all old dirty over weight perverted disgusting men. As WE know, that is not all true!

Along with having to deal with all of the extras you mentioned when he IS home, you did forget one thing. Not that it is hard enough to only have him home a couple days here and there but you also have to put your selfishness aside and share him with family and friends.

My husband and I dated for over 8 years before we married. He was not a truck driver then, but had his own tile and floor covering business. As the economy diminished, so did the construction and there fore so did the business. My husband took my father and cousins advice (as they are truck drivers too) and began his life on the road. At this point, we had only been married for a little less than 4 months. About a month after our 1 year anniversary we got great news, we found out we were expecting our first child! As great as this gift is, it did bring on a whole new spectrum of complications. Family is VERY important to us. This really hurts him to know he will most likely miss most of the milestones in my pregnancy and in out child's life. I am not 4 months pregnant, and I scheduled my ultrasound 6 1/2 weeks ahead of time and on a Monday knowing he is usually home on Mondays to insure he would be present. A couple hours ago we just found out he has to take an extra run and there is a 50/50 chance he will make it. The appointment is now only about a week away. If he is able to make it he will have been up all night driving before the appointment. This news was devastating to us both and I need to know how to deal.... It also brought on more things that I had not though of before like...what are the chances of him actually be able to be home to be with me as we welcome our little one into the world!? Please help as I am at a lost on how to deal with this...
