On the Mend??



Today I felt good. No muscle spasms (ah my favorite benefit from the 'roids). I got a good night's sleep without a pill. I missed a phone call from my friend who is going to buy me an emergency cell phone, and when I called her back it was all rainy and sleeting outside so we will get together later next week and get it.

I have been able to get up from my glider chair with less trouble than I've had in weeks. I let the dog out, twice, and fed her. Yay, me. But other than that, I didn't do much at all, [please note that the following is my DH's one and only contribution to this Blog: "except that my husband and I went at it like crazed rabbits!!!"]. No explanation forthcoming, I'll leave it in for your reading pleasure.

We participated in the hour of light's out America, or whatever it was called by setting out several candles and turning out the lights, and I read your Blogs by the light of the laptop. I was actually quite pleasant, and quieter. But I don't touch type so I didn't make many comments.

So, please send good thoughts that the "roids last at least a few weeks, Months, YEARS - j/k, I am more realistic than that.

Good Night, TTYL and Be Well

    Hi Webster,
    I'm sending good thoughts for the 'roids to continue working their magic for as long as possible.
    Best,
    Marty

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
