I promise I havent disappeared! Im in a real energy slump, also called a mito crash. When I get overly tired, I dont just have a bad day... My organ systems start to freak out. Ive had a handful of 24-hour sleep sessions. Today was better, so Im hopeful! Were also working on getting meds covered that may help me stay awake better. Im totally thrilled that I had my PICC pulled and a new central line placed on Monday. My arm is MINE! I can pick up kitties all day long! Ive been entertaining myself during my many hours resting in bed with a radio show on NPR called This American Life. The archive has weekly shows back to 1996! Ive been through nearly 100 shows in the last month. Theyre quirky and eclectic and hit that amazing balance of human interest and information that makes me buzz with excitement! I havent been on FB as much; I am really bad at typing on my phone and even worse at tolerating my frustration of all my mistakes! My nurse said that its okay if what I need right now is a lot of rest. Its hard not to feel guilty and angry and lazy. But, between fascinating radio and a very snuggly kitty, I am spending my rest in absolute utopia.
