A mother has been defended online for “not wanting” to drive her husband to the emergency room (ER) just a week after she was sick and he rebuffed her request for help with their baby.
The 24-year-old woman and original poster (OP), user Fit_Weather8407, explained on Reddit how, at around 2:30 a.m. one late night, her 26-year-old husband was dealing with a 104-degrees Fahrenheit (40-degrees Celsius) fever and told her that he wanted to take a trip to the ER.
Offended Husband
However, according to the OP’s post, she suggested that he try to take some medication—and utilize other strategies to attempt to get the fever down, since he, “Hadn’t taken any measures”, to do so—first.
At that point, though, her husband floated the idea of just going by himself, then apparently got offended shortly after when the OP didn’t “argue” and insist on accompanying him.
But the OP was taking their child into consideration, she shared.
