"Just not doing well at all."

Down I go!! Mood
Wednesday, September 17, 2008
We all getthink we can do it all but...NOT! We welcomed Sara back home and have been so busy getting her fiances in order. She got hurt on the job at Home Depot. She hurt her "funny bone" and now her radial and median nerves are damaged. She will recover but it will be over a month or so. She is not allowed to drive. Between her dad and I taking and picking her up from work I am pooped. The other I was so tired I went to bed crying in pain. Both Sara and Fred were both worried because I haven't cried in that much pain for a while. Come to find out I was 6 hours overdue on taking my Lyerica. I thought I had already taken it. Sooooo the next day I spent in bed crashing like I have never before. I'm just now starting to pull my way out and feeling somewhat better. I have to feel better we are going to Los Angeles to see our new nephew on Oct 9TH for a few days.

    Oh goodness. This does happen to us, doesn't it!! Just when we least expect it! Busy can be wonderful, but when you're sick and can be so dangerous. You forgot your meds...your obviously need the Lyrica for your pain. I'm so glad you have something that works, Darlene!! Really!

    I'm so sorry Sara got hurt! I hope Home Depot is going to cover her medical expenses. I hope she isn't in a lot of pain as well!!

    Oh dear, well... please rest Darlene, it's all you can do. And the emotional pressure of worrying about your daughter isn't helping.

    Praying that you both find healing quickly, so you can go to your Oct. engagement!!

    Hugsssssssss to you and those you love so dearly!!
