It keeps getting better

I was feeling optimistic that Sejin may be home by the time I get back to Korea, but it doesn't appear so. It looks like he may not even be home for Christmas. Apparently, some of the tissue in his foot is 'dead.' I'm not a doctor, but to me, this doesn't sound good. He has another surgery scheduled for Wednesday to cut out this dead tissue. Hopefully there is not too much dead tissue, otherwise, they will have to transplant some from somewhere else. I guess all the oxygen therapy he's been getting has not been effective enough in rejuvenating his twisted up foot.

Man, what a mess. Sejin is still trying to find a decent lawyer from his hospital bed. I'm wondering if there is going to be anything I can do to help him when I return to Korea. It's going to be just me and Grace after we return. I've also been thinking of all the things Sejin used to do for me -- grabbing bread on the way home, going to the health centre with me and Grace, cleaning up, watching Grace while I get an hour extra sleep... It's going to be a big adjustment for me, too...

It is going to be o.k. You have friends and family so you will always have your basic needs met. If the worst case scenario involves a tiny settlement, using your apartment money to pay off your debts and starting over in Canada, that isn't so bad. Very scary and unfair, but it will be o.k.

Oh Sarah, I am so sorry to hear that. We think about you guys all the time and really hope and pray things improve for you.
Like MamaSeoul said, you know you have the option of leaving and returning to Canada if worse comes to worst. We are here for you and want to help, please don't hesitate to ask!
HUGS!

It must be hard to be away when SeJin is going through all this but you will be there soon. I wish there was something I could do. I'm going to contact one of my Korean girlfriends to see if she can help.
