Re: Our Mad Chrissy--that sounds so funny

[Guest guest]

Do you mean mad as in angry or Mad as in " she's gone mad I tell ya,

MAD! " ? I told the doc that nobody from his gang called me back and

how angry I was he said next time just call his secretary. She's a

lovely woman, but she aint no doctor! and then I get into a

disagreement the pharmacist. He did not like the the dosage on my

demerol, then of course while argueing about all that, my kids are

all gimme gimme and I have a huge spell, that actually made me gasp

out loud. I hate when I do that. So I made the pharm call my doc,

nope, no stress there.

I did buy some lovely thank you notes to send to all those lovely

MOms that I used to refer to as the volunteer nazis. I guess there

not all bad.

How are you feeling? are all the wounds cleared up? They should be.

I meant mad as in you're losing it *L*...glad you got your meds

dosage. And did you say that the doctor in Cincinatti said he didn't

think you did have CP when you first got there?...If your pancreas

is shot all the way through..that doesn't make sense..I hope he has

changed his opinion, or found another reason, because whilst it's

horrible to have CP, it makes it doubly worse to have it and not

know why....having to go back to the beginning and have all the

tests done again, or different testing done.

My wound is just about closed. Bandage won't stay in it is so

shallow (almost level to the edges of the skin, and as wide as a

buttonhole) But the gel bandaids I was told to use, won't stick well

to my stomach, keep loosening when I get up/down and move around

*L*..so I use a regular bandaid to hold a bunched up small piece of

wet gauze to it. Personally, I think it would heal without any wet

gauze now..but still don't want to risk it.

Hope you have a better day today,
