give ME a second to think about it...


Just like the title of D's blog, I was faced with "Give me a second to think about it" today. More like "What did you say??" "Did you actually say Immunosuppressant drugs?" I swear, I should REALLY follow my own advice and take someone with me to the Dr. so that when they say something like that and I "check out" the person with me is there to catch anything else the Dr. has to say. I did hear muscle biopsy Thursday and managed to get that down in my planner. For crying out in the night. I am not a sick person and am not ready to be one!!!!!!!. Could someone tell my body? Loudly?? Does my body know what this means? Doesn't it remember that I am not good at remembering to take medication? That I have worked hard at building up my endurance at boot camp? That I am a nurse working in a hospital and can't be immunosuppressed?? That I am a wife and mother, daughter, sister, friend and have to take care of other people? OK. There is a plan at work, I know. I just have to get a grip and...I just have to get a grip.

d,
if you'd move your body back here i'd tell it to be healthy every day!!! no one should have to have a dianosis that is relatively unpronouncable anyway...
it's the rocket fumes; i know it is. if you get away from those and back here in the clean air, HA!!!, of the ohio valley, you'll feel like a new woman. and even if you don't we could move into colonial assisted living together.
now, wouldn't that be the blind leading the blind. but, at least we could laugh at ourselves and eat brownie batter:b
i love you very much and am praying that you will get better (but you can still move back home;)

Assisted Living and brownie batter...I knew there was something good about getting old!!! :) I love you too!! BTW what is the handicapped symbol beside the word verification box used for?

dani said...

well i would know... it's for if you cannot figure out what the letters are. i think it's supposed to read them for you. but, when i've had trouble figuring them out the handicapped thingy hasn't worked. i am extra special, huh???

You amaze me. Even in difficult times you have brought a smile to my face with your humor.

You and Dani are real pieces of work and I'm so glad you have each other!
