mom updates and friday's ramblings

Friday, June 01, 2012

Take a cat and hold it about 1" above the surface of a swimming pool.

that's what this last week has been like for me--if I was the cat--

Moms biopsy went without any complications and they released her from the hospital yesterday.
we all met at her house later in the day and had pizza and salad.
that is when I realized that was the first vegetables I had all week
and I had a headache from consciously not having any caffeine all week tooo
I was running on coffee milk and cookies for 5 days
Now that mom is home we can relax this weekend sort of
next week she has 3 doctor appointments and will get the results from the biopsy and select a treatment option.
right now my work is slow Thank God
because this is day 2 with no caffeine -small headache but I am exhausted from doing nothing --except worrying
But I did put my -now tight- exercise clothes on yesterday- and instead of exercising mowed two lawns
one for me and one for my neighbor who is moving and filled my freezer up with frozen stuff -no ice cream, lots of veggies chicken, ground meat and stuff that I have to unwrap to find out.
I have no Idea what I ate all week
but I did manage to fall down the stairs at my house saturday
it was because the stairs were wet from me coming out of the swimming pool and dragging water all through the house.
I'm glad no one was there to see me cry I am black and blue from my hip to my knee the side of my left ankle that has just stopped hurting from February and it was hard to stop the bleeding from my elbow my shoulder is still kind of stiff too
--------------more to the story on request only------------------
this if funny

when the doctor called down to the waiting room and told us no complications
I said to my brothers and sisters when we see her lets all switch names and tell her it must be a side effect of the biopsy.

Mom beat me to it when she was talking to us she started calling us by completely different names. It was funny!!

    Oh, man! You did NOT need to slip down the stairs and get injured. Enough is enough! Do you have arnica? It really seems to help with healing soft tissue and bruises. Take care of yourself. It is so easy to have accidents when you are going through too much stress.

    Jim, praying that the results are good from your mom....have been through this with my mom and myself. Stay positive.

Ouch, that fall sounds pretty painful. Better take care of yourself and DRY OFF next time.

Also read the comments on your chat. You have been going through a lot lately and stress can play a real tune on your body. Please do keep us posted on how you and your mom are doing. I get my next injection in my right eye this coming Wednesday and can already see signs that I need it.

    There is nothing at all funny about what has been happening to you the last couple of years. You have really been through the wringer. It is about time you had a few good breaks in your favor. There are a lot of people on spark hoping they come really soon.
