Hey everyone... if you're taking the time to read this, thank you... my name is Gabriel and Sheila is my wife... we've been married for six years and going strong. We have two beautiful boys, one of which was just born on December 13, 2023. Sheila has always had back problems from when I met her, due to falling on her tailbone and back when she was younger. But as we all know, when we're younger we heal fast, and move on. Fast forward to present day, and Sheila has just given birth to our second child and I thank God everyday that I have the job I have in order to have taken leave to enjoy the first couple of months with my newborn. Before Sheila gave birth, her stomach was enormous and had been having sciatica like pains. We of course didn't think nothing of it because of the size of her stomach, if she just stuck it through, when the baby came out the pain would just reside and all would be good. Well unfortunately the pain never went away but got worst especially when I went back to work from my paternal leave. You see I was doing all the heavy lifting with the newborn, baby seat, stroller, groceries, etc. When I came back to work, she started doing a lot of these things, but what we didn't know is that it took a toll on her lower back. She's been in agonizing pain and crying like I've never seen her before. Not only because of the pain, but after further review from going to the ER and orthopedic surgeon , it showed she did in fact fracture her tailbone when younger, and she didn't even know about, which now explains her back pains. To top it off she has a ruptured disc in her lumbar area and cause some nerve damage that can lead to cauda equina if not handled quickly. All because she was being a wonderful wife and mother to our two boys, one which needs more attention because he's a newborn. We were told she shouldn't had been lifting anything, not even the baby, but we didn't know. As a husband you don't know how hard it to see your wife crying, not only because of pain, but because she's laying next to her newborn as he's crying for nurturing and breastmilk and she can't do nothing because she can't hardly move or carry him. Do to these events I must take FMLA leave from work, but without pay since I used it all when the baby was born. So I need assistance to provide for my family since I will not be getting paid for the next several months. Please anything helps. Keep praying for us and thank you for your support.
