I know I have written some pretty major vents in the last couple of days. The work one was big. I feel at peace today. I got all of that out. My anxiety is down after seeing Dr. Jenkins. I had a really major surgery and even though it has been 2 weeks I have a lot of healing to do inside. I still have stitches in there. I need to chill out.
I am going to try and get off pain meds at least during the day and switch to Motrin today.
Oxycodone was my friend but I am tired of it and it's side effects.
I can't really read or draw while I am taking it.
Without the catheter I am thinking I can maybe sit today and do both.
So I am laying in bed looking out the window at the rain. There are all kinds of birds chirping that I can hear and it makes me happy because spring is almost here.
Hey Ellen, My heart is with you in your struggle. Your dog is probably scared, he has not deserted you and neither have your friends. If you feel like company let me know. If I can bring you anything just call. Thinking of you and praying that you will find the doctor who will be your strength
ReplyDeletethrough this, it's a lot to figure out. I am happy your sister has arrived, I'm sure your mom is a wreck worrying about you. Love you, Gwen
Mom is a wreck but better. Marivee sat with her through the surgery and I know she is grateful for that! i feel good today1
ReplyDeleteYa know, I don't love this journey, but your writing is spot on. Keep writing. Keep writing. The rain is lovely, isn't it? Had to, suddenly, go scout this AM and thought I drowned my phone - you should have seen all the sideways rain downtown, with the wind! It was whippin' round those buildings! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Gwen on Ridley. Working Friday, now, but I'm around...
