My boyfriend was injured in Iraq...and is on major pain meds..help me understand!!?
Ok...So my boyfriend was in Iraq. He volunteered for a mission and was helping his buddy load his truck. A connex fell on his arm smashing it and breaking all the bones in his hand and forearm...so he was flown out to Germany and had some surgeries there and then they sent him to TX to some specialists....His room mate wrote me on myspace to let me know what happened and my bf called me the next day to make sure i knew since he hadnt talked to his room mate..he was in a lot of pain...obviously. But anyway its been about a week since the whole thing happened and i have talked to him twice in that entire time...the second time mainly because his nurse in germany said he wouldnt stop talkin about me so she helped him get my number off his yahoo where he had it saved and gave him a phone to call me...he told me he was thinkin he was going to be addicted to pain meds after he got home and he just kept saying my arm is destroyed...and baby i miss you...he promised to call me the next day when he left germany and when he got to tx this was last thursday..and i havent heard from him since.... Our relationship is still pretty new.....but we did seem to have a bond..i know hes going to call me eventually but I am having such a hard time understanding and coping right now...I miss him so much..i hope hes doing alright and i dont understand how he could tell me he was going to call me 4 days ago and i havent heard from him since when he knows how worried i am.... For some reason..I his ex of 8 years seems to be tryin to get back in his life and i feel like a trauma like this might make him go back to something from his past...I dont know mayb he hasnt called cause hes so drugged up..i dont know i have never been on pain meds before...i think hes on morphine too..but can someone help me i am so stressed i miss him so much and things were going so good.....he always told me he would wait forever for me..and i certainly can wait for him..but i just want to understand..can meds really make you that out of it that you forget to do something you say to someone you care about...and also i have never broken a bone...i was wondering how painful what hes going thru might be..they said it would have been better had he lost his arm completely... Thanks people sorry its so long! no he has an ex that he was with 8 years...we met about 4 months ago and have been official for about a month.....

he's probably so sedated with medication that he's unable to call you. the side effects of those meds could be effecting his memory. He may be stationed in like an I.C.U. and not able to use a phone for contact. รข—™

Considering he just had a near death experience don't you think you're being a bit selfish? He's in a hospital, he's drugged up and I'm sure there's probably a chance he could lose him arm. I think you should pray for him, but let it be. You can't begin to imagine what he has seen and is going through. The last thing he needs to be worried about is a needy girlfriend. (no offense) If he calls again, let him know you're there for him, but don't put any pressure on him. The last thing he needs right now is more stress.

HE LOVES YOU. Don't worry about his ex hun.. His injury won't make him stop loving you & leave you..
