Very, Very Slow Recovery and I got a court date in My life....I can't make this shit up!

Mom’s recovery has not really progressed as it should. She still can’t get out of the bed, she struggles to sit up, she has not walked around since before going into the hospital, she continues to say only one or two words per breath, she has so much fluid built up that her hands are balloons. Dad is still the only person that can go visit her, so I get all my updates from him and from the nurse. I usually call the hospital between 3 and 4:30 to get an update. Dad has gone back to work, but I keep trying to talk him into taking FMLA leave. He says they can’t afford it, which I get, but I worry about his health too. He’s at the hospital when he’s not at work, comes home exhausted, forces himself to eat, then goes to bed.
Last night I got an e-mail from the court with an Order to Show Cause and Notice of Hearing. Court is February 24th via ZOOM. This is where the asshole is supposed to show up and explain why he did not attend mediation. I hope he doesn’t show up to this one as well. If he doesn’t the judge can either grant the divorce here (hopefully!) or schedule a default hearing. I don’t anticipate anything actually happening in February and expect another court date to be scheduled. I just hope it’s scheduled for March. I’d like this stupid divorce to be completed ASAP.
I’m still an emotional wreck. I can’t see or talk to mom. I don’t always know what’s going on, and I want to be there to push her, because someone has to. We had considered sending Cameron back to school, because I’m only going to be able to work from home for so long, but in our area cases are rising and I get a phone call every damn day that a student has tested positive. In our district, if a child tests positive all students in that class are to quarantine for two weeks. If Mom comes home we have to keep Cameron in the bedroom for two weeks. There’s no way we’re going to keep healthy 12 year old cooped up in the bedroom - only to come out and use the bathroom. That’s not fair to him. I’m going to have to have a talk with my boss this morning and see if I can continue to work from home or if I need to take FMLA. I’d rather take FMLA, but I don’t think we can afford the lost wages at the moment.
