Yes I am still here. No. I am not ignoring anyone. I do hate when people think I am ignoring them. Please stop that. That being said, things have been quite busy here. Nurses are coming in twice a week if not 3 times. Some one changes my dressings twice a day. I just went back to Florence the 27th and had my staples out. It looks good. I wanted to update but I have been so terribly sleepy lately that I have barely been able to stay awake. I am glad they are trying to get me in order and on my feet but sometimes when you are in the hospital like I was they tend to mess with your medicine so much that you end up on a lot more and with so many changes that youre not sure what is working and what is not. Sleep clinic March 6 I will finally get my machine fixed and hopefully be back on my bi-pap again. I am looking forward to curling back up in my bed to rest again. Having one hell of a time keeping my oxygen level up. I stay blue a lot. Raven has a boyfriend now. I am so happy for her. Sad that she is gone on weekends and may be moving out but very happy she has found someone that makes her happy. She did a world of work on my house recently which meant a lot to me. I have a new walker and Im trying to walk some but it takes room and I need places to sit. Over all I am very proud of the work she has gotten done. The house has 6 years of clutter in it, one person cleaning would take ages. Raven cleared a huge dent. I am so thankful for it. Poor Tony is caught in the rift of all the cleaning. He is trying to keep up, but at best reminds me of a duckling fighting with a storm drain. Raven can be quite demanding when she has a goal set, both on her self and everyone around her. She gets amazing results, but it also sets a deeply rooted fear in people who have been exposed to it that can not fully be described. O.o My fur-baby Isabelle is extremely clingy. Not sure if it is because I was gone in hospital so much or if she knows I still feel bad. Either way she hardly leaves my side and constantly wants in my chair when I sleep. I dont mind much but lately she gets on my belly that kind of hurts a bit still. It is still draining and not all healed yet. Soon though. It doesnt help that my chair I am sleeping in currently is broken as well. I can barely get out of the darn thing from where the boards in the front are broken. It has lasted me almost 4 years, but I am afraid it is done for. I need a new over stuffed recliner if anyone sees them on sale for a good price and extra big. I am still looking for a used spa or walk in tub for a reasonable price too. Medical will not cover those. I can not afford to pay 5000+ for a new one. I barely have 200 a month to put back and tinker with over time, and that depends on food and birthdays. Speaking of tinkering, i got my breakfast down. I better get my pills down and nap a bit before my daughter is up and ready to work more. Sure hope Morning Glory and Oberon Zell get some healing mojo that way. I have been reading about Morning Glory and I certainly feel her pain. Thinking about Linda Tipton, and Crystal Bryant, as well as several other families who have had sickness and loss recently. Im not sure if things are getting worse, or if its just because were all getting older. Either way, I sure wish wed get a break for a while. I am enjoying the sunlight today, streaming through the cracks of the curtains. It will make it easy to imagine that it is spring outside, and I have come in to escape the heat for just a little while. :) All too soon we shall be saying this ... and the snow will just be a memory. I cant wait to hear the little peepers again.
