Time for my noon neb. So thought I would write a note. I am doing my best to deal with my MG today. After all that running around for my regular job and then for the home health care meeting and back in to my office, I spent the rest of the morning in my office looking at charts on my computer. So I am taking care of myself as best as I can. I have to let my boss know that I am still having lots of difficulties with the MG. The home health care boss actually recognized that I was having a problem. She actually asked. Very out of character. I must have looked really bad. But sitting in on the meeting did give me the time to catch my breath and compose myself.
I am thrilled that the dizziness is less today than it has been. Not sure if that will last but enjoying it for now.
I have the papers ready for the grief support group I run the first and third Tuesdays of each month. I am ready for tomorrow. That is a nice thing as I don't always get a chance to be ahead of the game. I have plans for what to cover tomorrow. I hope it goes better than the last one.
You know, I moved away from my family when I met Ken and moved in with him. We moved to where he was from and near his family. They all live in the same town I live near. So my family is 4-6 hours away. I didn't feel like I had so many friends as I work and do little else. My life was with Ken and we enjoyed each other's company tremendously. But we didn't go out and do things with others. Well, since I have been sick I have found out that so many people are concerned. I didn't realize how many friends I have. I have people calling me all the time to check on me. I have friends who visit, send cards, call. It has been gratifying to know that there are so many out there who care. They want to help out in some way. I have a problem asking for help but it is nice to know that they are there for me if I need them. I didn't realize. You know, I even had a friend who called my parents looking for me when I didn't answer his phone calls. He wanted to know where I was....I was in the hospital in Milwaukee at the time. I can't believe it. I had another friend who called my mom to ask what was going on when I was down there. These are Ken's friends who are now my friends. It is very special and humbling to know that they care so much.
Life is wonderful...even when sick....especially when sick. You find out who your true friends and family are at that time. My family has been wonderful too....just long distance. But they have dropped everything for me when I needed to get to Milwaukee. So they have shown their true colors also. I am fortunate.
Soon back to work and walking a bit to get my job done. I need to keep moving. But will make sure I take my share of breaks so that I don't overdo it with my legs.
Thanks to the support of all my friends here at DS. You are a wonderful addition to my family of friends. I need all your help.
