My fiance is a fire fighter and I appreciate everything he does and I'm so proud of him but it scares me to death when he gets called to structure fires because there's always a chance that they may not make it home. I try to stay positive and pray but it's so hard. I want to be selfish and tell him he can't go because his daughter and I need him but I know I can't do that.
any other moms going through something like this with their SO?
Yea I understand I'm just counting the days till he go to the academy like omg he's really doing it (in a good way) I'm actually starting to be more proud of him then worrying about him
@missytoyou, I'm the same! I don't want to hold him back from something he loves! it's just hard
I am well something like that my husband wants to be a police officer and I don't want him to but I tell myself I would never be the reason he look back 10 years from now and say I'm the reason he what he was called to do,so like you do I just pray and not try to worry I sometimes make jokes with him to not worry so much he's going pretty soon nervous but I'm at a place where I'm okay
my husband was in the Army, all during my pregnancy he was on call for deployment so every time his phone rang he had to leave, I never knew If it was a drill and he would be home in an hour or if it was real and he wasn't coming home. to ease my mind I made a lot of friends and tried to not be alone. and he was gone ALL the time for weeks or months on end. he wasn't even home when I went into labor (but he made it for delivery). I was always so worried about him @medleymichaela
