Still on track


I woke up at 9:00 this morning which was a little too early because after I signed off last night, Hubs woke up at 12:30 a.m. and I stayed awake until 4:00! I was tired, but I asked him to heat a burrito for me, and had to wait a bit before lying down.

Punima was asleep on my bed because I left the door ajar when I was getting ready for bed, and since she looked so comfy I couldn't bear to move her. I didn't close the door tight (so she could leave in the middle of the night if she wanted) and let her sleep with me. This morning she was nestled by my legs, but not so close that I couldn't move, which has been a problem in the past. Still, however much I like to hear her purring whenever I reach to touch her, I don't think I'll let her in again because I woke up all stuffy this morning. Sounds like a low-grade allergy to me. I've also had a light headache all day.

Tomorrow a few friends and I are going for lunch at Uncle Thurm's Soul Food restaurant that was reviewed last week. Fried Chicken, catfish, BBQ ribs, rice and beans, mac and cheese... It all sounds yummy, and I'll probable have plenty to bring home - and since hubs is a strict vegetarian, it's all MINE. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it. I'll let you know how it is.

Good Night, TTYL and Be Well

no sooner had i written that last post than i came  down with a  fever and a raging case of cellulitis. needless to say i was admitted into the hospital the monday before thanksgiving and stayed until  the sunday  after. i did however order a turkey dinner on thursday, and they served a special dessert! since i came home, i haven't heard from my caregiver... so i called the office and spoke with her supervisor. it turns out that she was clocking  in and out all week! that's tantamount to fraud. don't know what'll happen to her. i have had two caregivers since. both i liked, but the first one lasted only one day, and the other hasn't had much experience. i'll give her a chance and we'll see what happens. good night, ttyl, and be well.

My MS Update 2017

Image
I entered last year celebrating by watching 'new year at the needle' fireworks display (The Seattle Space Needle) on a hospital TV.  I was in there from 12/27/16 to 1/3/17 with, I believe, cellulitis and a bladder infection.  I have been in the hospital several times since then, 5/19 to 5/22  with cellulitis. I didn't have any cuts so it must have been a cat claw poke or a bug bite... any break in the skin will do for those of us who are immuno-compromised. August brought me in hospital from 8.19  to 8/25 with the perfect trifecta -  cellulitis, vaginal and bladder infections. So, how am I doing? you might ask. Well,  36 years with MS and this is my current condition. From head to toe, here goes nothing. if you are newly diagnosed let me tell you here that mine is not a typical case, but still, you may want to stop reading now. head - intermittent memory lapses; I thank the heavens for post-it notes, I have three on my laptop now reminding me...

my back yard pt. 2

well. there's a new addition to the pet cemetery. last  week we lost Rajah, brother to nishita and punima who died in 2o18. he's buried adjacent to them. when dh was digging the grave, he found  a large skull of a dog (not ours), so he had to put a little more space than we would have preferred between the cats. i  imagine in thirty years or so, whoever buys the house and digs up the yard will be quite surprised. good night, ttyl, and be well in this year of COVID-19
