Tangie is getting there but unfortunately it will take a couple of weeks for the medicine to take full effect. She is still lethargic but she is sleeping in her bed a lot more. She is so smart that at times I can't believe it myself how smart she is. I am going to pick her up after I finish my journal. Well today was a day of sleep for me because even though I sit in a...1 Recommendation3 Comments

Well I have a new disease to get used to. I went out for two days (how exhausting can it be to push on a toggle to run an electric wheelchair?) and then slept for two days. Between the MS, the Fybro, and now the Addison's all are supposed to cause fatigue and that's what happened. I am worried about getting the tooth pulled because that is surgery in a way an...1 Recommendation7 Comments

Well I've turned into an expert sleeper. This morning the visiting nurse woke me up with a surprise visit - changing the foley which I have trying to get done through them since I left the hospital at the end of Sept. It was interesting because I had to chuck all my medicine right away including the Florinef because she was going to get a wacky reading. She did twice. ...1 Recommendation5 Comments -
Well I have Tangie fasting for the 24 hours so that I can feel her the boiled chicken and rice after she fasts to get rid of the diareah. She lays in front of her food bowl and seeping right now. I feel so bad because she is used to having food in that bowl all day long. It's like I'm torturing her and I don't mean to. We'll get through it. We&#...1 Recommendation3 Comments

Well I had the mammo done and the ultrasound done and the only thing that they found that looked remotely like a nodule was a lymph gland that was as tiny as the nodule was supposed to be and it was in back of my breast not in my breast. I don't understand how a good radiologist could miss that one. He couldn't tell a lymph node from a nodule? Well anyway every...1 Recommendation3 Comments -
I don't know what there is to pray for anymore. I have an aquaintence on here that was in the same or more pain that I was in before I got the pump. She was so happy because I had sent her a message with Medtronic's phone numbers on it and told her to call at least on of the numbers and they would give her a doc's name that implanted it in her area. She has kid...1 Recommendation6 Comments

I've got to learn to walk again. You know,,,the heel-toe way. I noticed this morning that I'm not walking. It's a kinda long shuffle. My first thought was it was the new shoes I'm breaking in. They're regular shoes. Not the athletic type I've been wearing for so many years. They're about twice as heavy and stiffer than the othe...1 Recommendation5 Comments

I crashed again. The whole week of transition hit me Friday afternoon and I could go no further. In transition, there are helpers for us. When we come up on something we can't do or remember how to do, we hold up our hands and a helper comes to help. It seems to me that I need help on just about every call I take. What happened in the 5 weeks training? Didn...1 Recommendation3 Comments
