So, I don't know if I can do this without crying

‎08-14-2011 11:14 PM

My significant other is having surgery for an abdominal aneurysm Tuesday. He does not want anyone to know he is having surgery, he is 62. He does not have any children, but does have his Dad and 3 sisters. I am so worried for him and don't know if I can be good support without crying myself. I know this is the last thing I should do, I know I need to man up, but honestly I don't know if I can. Please pray for me in that I have the strength to be the support he needs.. I know my extended family would be there for us, but I am honoring his wishes to not tell anyone. I don't get this mentality, your family is there for support and love, but I guess he does not see it that way. My family is so tight I would not dream of having this type of surgery and not telling them. I don't get it. I also understand not telling his Dad, as not to worry him, he is in another state. Please give me some insight, Lord knows I need it.
