My dad was in hospital recently for a heart attack and luckily is doing fine. 

My wife is now in hospital with some abdominal and back pain. The doctors think it's nothing serious but I can't stop worrying. Some of the blood results show there is inflammation. I keep thinking the worst and waiting for all these test results is elevating my anxiety to very high levels. I hate seeing her suffer in pain. 

Is it even possible to be 'happy' during this time? I'm home alone now and when I think of my wife being alone and the uncertainty of test results I get very sad and worried. 

How can I cope with this and is it even possible for me to be calm and positive during this time? What can I do to help myself cope?
