Re: Lily, MIA to Kimber from lily

Kimber,

Hey, thanks for checking up on me. I have been missing in action I guess !

Actualy I have been a very busy girl. Still working full time as a RN and by the

time I get home at night I am pretty doggone tired. My pain has been tolerable

and for that I am very grateful.But of course I have to take my meds around the

clock or I get my pain. I get real tired of setting my alarm to wake me up in

the middle of the night but if I miss a dose,,, BAM,, ( and not the kinda BAM

for Emerald Aggausse either !). This good ole Sphincter of Oddi and I are going

to grow old together. Speaking of old, had a birthday last week, hit 49 years

young. Next year will be the big one ( again !). But that is OK as my 10 year

old is keeping me young and turning gray. What a combo !

I have been having some real dizzy spells here lately and they sent me for a CT

of the head. I tried to tell them there was nothing up there but they did not

believe me. Unfortunatley something did come back in there, near my ear so they

ordered a MRI. Had that done and then my ENT went on vacation for two weeks. So

needless to say, I decided I was not going to worry about it till I see him. How

do you like that for coping skills. Pretty creative right ?

Talked with the other day for a few minutes. She was still sore from her

port being put in. Amy was going to buy a used car and the kids go back to

school next week. So at least she will get some down time to herself.

How is your back coming along after your fall in the hospital ? I know that you

were having a rough way to go for a while. I hope that it has gotten somewhat

better, that area takes a while to heal .

Better go for now. I try to check the message board a couple times a week but

have not had time to write much. Since dad died in April I have been checking up

on mom every night. She fell and hurt her hip so I am taking her to an ortho

next week. ( Gosh, when will things ever slow down ? ). I am just very gratful

that I feel well enough to work. So very grateful. When I spoke with the

other day we talked about going to Cincy to check on Chrissy when she has her

surgery. Hopefully she will read this post and let us know when she is going. I

knnow that she is scared but we are saying big prayers for her here in my house.

She is such a good egg.

Boys coming home from football practice and are hungry. Gotta run, miss you all

!

Lily, MIA?

Hey,

has anyone heard from Lily anytime lately? I haven't seen a post from

her in a while and I thought I'd ask to see if anyone else has heard

from her?

Lily,

Happy Belated Birthday. I had mine in June. I'm now 34. Those dizzy

spells don't sound too good. What does ENT stand for? Sorry, it may be a

stupid question, but I am always forgetting what these acronyms stand

for. I gather it's a doctor of some sort. Let me know what they found

regarding your MRI when you find out. I worry about you, lady.

Unfortunately, I had a set back with my back. I went to visit a friend

of mine over the weekend and I had to use public transportation to get

there. I used a luggage cart figuring that would keep my back from

getting hurt and still be able to bring things like clothes and my CPAP

machine. WRONG. My back and hips did not like even pulling the cart,

mainly on the trip home because the bus doesn't run on Sundays, so I

have to go to San Francisco via subway and then take the ferry home.

Well, there is a decent walk from the subway to the ferry building. My

back and hips (bursitis in both hips) did not like that walk. I could

barely move the next day and my back is still hurting some and that was

almost a month ago.

I'm so sorry that your mom fell. I hope the damage isn't too bad to her

hip. I'm glad too that you are feeling good enough to work. I wish I

still could. I miss it. I hope both you and are able to visit

Chrissy. If you do, tell her hello for me too. If she hasn't already,

see if Chrissy will give an address to send cards to when she is

recovering from her surgery.

Hope you continue to do as well as you are now and keep in touch. Try

not to wear yourself out.
