Feel like a horrible wife...

Just got a call from my husband who was out fishing and as he was unloading the kayak it dropped on his head.  He is having someone drive him home so that I can take him to the hospital.  He says all of his teeth have fallen out and he's bleeding pretty bad.  I had to rush to find someone that can watch my one and two year olds while we're gone.

I feel horrible, but right now the main thought running through my head is, "I'm going to have to run around after the toddlers, I'm pregnant with twins, and I'm going to have to take care of my husband and he's not going to be able to work."

We've been having financial issues lately and he's hourly, so him not working will impact us a lot.  Also, he doesn't have insurance.  I know accidents happen to everyone, but my hormones have me thinking "What type of idiot does that?"

Ahh!  Just about to go crazy!

They should be able to give him something for the pain thats complete bs. I dont know where you are but in most hospitals there should be a dentist on call for the er. I would also keep calling the dentists bc sometimes they just listen to their messages. Also see if by chance any dentists have saturday hours some do. Ask for a second opinion about the pain meds its not gonna solve the problem but it will make it easier for the weekend.

so, we're in the er and they said he needs a dentist and there's nothing they can even do for the pain. we called every dentist in town before we even came here and got nobody answering their emergency lines. they are all closed for the weekend. so I'm paying a couple hundred bucks I don't have for them to get no luck doing something i already did and my husband won't be able to eat for three days. what teeth aren't shattered are literally barely hanging on...please pray for me, ladies so I don't snap over the weekend!
