I hope you feel better Patty, got to load up on the sunscreen. I don't burn as easily but still needed sunscreen. Last night only 2 hours. I tried that new over the counter sleep aid called Alteril. Doesn't seem to work for me. I wonder if the drug store will take it back. I took only 2 doeses and it's over the counter. Can't take this lack of sleep. I have so much to get done but so darn tired.
Having the courage to walk step by step each day.

May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind always be on your back.
May the sun lie warm upon your face.
And until we meet again,
May the Lord hold you
In the hollow of His hand.

Im loving memory of my mom, 2007: My hero, The Wind Beneath My Wings

I'm a stubborn depressed Lady ...so sad...

Keep The Peace..

Love and Peace, Patty

I have been soooo tired today. Just got message they wont let my SIL go just yet...the complications are setting in again....I think this may go on for a few more days until she gets stable...

Never again can I get my RSD limb sunburned...they just dont heal at all...my lower calf looks mutilated. Someone said I need to take a sunscreen bath in The RSD Group..I think I was too embarrassed to ask what that was...LOL...I think the Dr. will look at it this week..I hope...no ins, and short on money this week...bummer.....

Sounds painful Dizzy. And don't stop writing your own threads here! Your "stubbornness" is a major part of what makes this forum so helpful, active, and supportive.

As for me, I finally finished my trial HSC exams! Three weeks of holidays! Yay!

Also not a doctor

Thanks Zetsubou ..Congrats on your exams!!! It was nice of you to say to me what you did. Mostly during this time. Its so hard not feeling well, and knowing your close relative lays in a Hospital bed...wondering why she cant go home..but can't talk yet...the voice cords were affected too...Getting a bit scared

I'm an Advocate

I just came back from fetching my daughter from her workplace. It is a nice cool sunny day. My maid is leaving for Cambodia come this Friday. We gave her a 3 weeks holiday. Don't know how can we cope without her. I will return to my old status as the official dishwasher for the home. I can sleep like a log anytime anywhere as long as there is something to support my head and back. Not much of an appetite these days. I was up all night on Monday after gorging a large portion of supper which gave my tummy a huge 'hangover'. I kept the night happy by watching movies on the tv. I have no support system in place. The family treat me as taboo and the hospitals are ill equipped to handle cases like mine. If only the family cared a bit...if only...things might have been so much better for me. With no support, I am like the jetsam and flotsam floating and drifting about in the sea with no land in sight...no reprieve. After 25 years, what did the medicines do to me, nothing...a waste of time, effort and money. As as the author of Eccle wrote.."there is a time and season for everything under the sun". Feel like crying..but no tears....wish for peace...but all fears. Who do I turn to...the Lord....where is the Lord....nowhere in sight...where do I go...I do not know..is He near...I listen but do not hear. Promises, promises and more promises. 25 years has not mellowed me instead I have grown more skeptical. I am numb, in limbo...possibly relief..tomorrow...at least there is still hope..as long as there is hope, I will continue..

As long as you have hope, you have faith. As long as ou have faith, you have hope. Someone once told me that if you feel that God is faraway, then He didn't move away, you did. These days, I have a stronghold on the hem of His robe. I, too, wish for peace. I also wish for no more depression. I long to laugh again. I long to enjoy life again. I will keep us both in my prayers. I know that things will get better for the both of us. Jesus is always near. All we need to do is call upon Him and then wait patiently for the answer. The waiting is the hardest. I hope that you have a wonderful and blessed day. Take care of you today. It is a cool and sunny day here also. Let us both enjoy the day, for this is the day that the Lord hath made. Let us rejoice. Take care, now.
