Hospice nurse assigned to my case was here

February 2, 2009

Also same time was the CNA (certified Nursing asst) who happens to

live in our apartment complex here, (God is good). We went through

every thing and the nurse will be here 8:30 a.m. on Wed. to go over

everything with Earl.

I can not get any liquid oxy. with this Hospice, I don't need it as I

won't be going up and down stairs anymore. Today has not been a good

one emotionally or physically. As you all know I now have 2 canulas

in my nose, both on 10, so that is 20 liters. The nurse said my

blood pressure was 187/90, bad. She gave me a treatment of morphine

by the liquid dropper. I worked miraculously. It is oral under the

tongue and liquid. Let it work for a few min. and then it releases

all the muscles in your chest cavity, lungs, heart and major organs

in your body (this was just a very tiny amount too). I became calm,

kinda like " partyin " - ha and just a good feeling all over. I was

sitting at the kit. table with them. She went over everything and I

felt so blessed to have it all here for me. is here now, so the

CNA went home. Said I could call her anytime. She is a lovely lady

named Lillian and in her late 40's, no kids, dogs or anything to keep

her from not being able to come to help me. We do pay here though.

She has been doing Hospice for a long time and very excellent.

I feel very high right now as the morphine is working throught my

body. We will not be using the mask as it has a connection part to

it which blocks the oxygen from coming in. So with the 2 canulas on

24/7, if I need it any higher, I will get morphine. Have enough of

that for several people so if you all want to have a party, you know

where to find me.

I am going to go now. Guess I will be completely relaxed and well

fed and comfortable from now on. Isn't that a Blessed feeling?

I LOVE YOU THIS DAY
