Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 Hi all, it's been a long time since I've updated. Things have been going downhill. After the stroke in January my vision is poor and I am in the wheelchair about 90% of the time. I've been in the hospital more than I've been home. My pulmonary function has taken a big hit and now I'm on noninvasive ventilation about 18 hours a day, the rest on O2. My seizures are finally under control but I still can't be alone at all, I need PCA's or family support 24/7. I'm still on TPN and I had an infected gall bladder but wasn't strong enough to have it removed so they put a drain in it. So, that's the crappy medical stuff. What I need is diversion! I'm bored, need to find something new to do, chat on line or on the phone, watch some movies, something! So if anyone has a minute, please give a call or drop a line. I need to keep my brain from getting mushy. My home phone's . I'd love to chat! HeidiC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 Hi, Heidi, I would love to chat with you by e mail. I too had a stroke. But with rehabilitation I made it out ok. Sorry to hear of your plight. But hopefully we can become chat friends. --- heidicoleman2002 mom2colemankidz3@...> wrote: > Hi all, it's been a long time since I've updated. > Things have been > going downhill.
