    Hi all

    I'm a stay at home mom to a PGY5 anesthesia resident who is on the cusp of accepting a 2yr Critical Care Fellowship in our home city. I have 4 children, 3 of whom are young and still at home - 9yr old son, a 3yr old son and a 2 yr old daughter (15 mos apart).

    I'm trying not to lose my marbles entirely and feel a lot of hesitation with supporting my spouse through the 2yr critical care fellow program as he been almost completely absent for the past 4 years which has had a tremendous, negative impact on our relationship.

    Looking forward to poking around and trying to find my place here!

    Best,
    D

    Welcome, from another anesthesia spouse! I'm sorry about the fellowship... I'd be really annoyed with DH if he wanted to add on more years.

                        Welcome! You are in good company here. I read your other post. My DH is studying for Royal College exams right now. It's a source of great stress around here, especially now that we have sent off the giant sized check! Stick around!
