God bless that sweet lady. Dixie is a sweetheart, she's hilarious, and always putting up a brave face for everyone.
And don't even get me started on Chily. She's be the one I'd call if I needed anything. She's a true friend. Even tho she feels crappy herself, she won't even talk about it. She's focused on Dix, and that's........a real friend! Love you both guys!
::sigh::
The ER released her AGAIN! The did give her a shot of dilaudid for the pain, but we all know that will only last for a few hours, assuming it actually helps the pain.
She saw a doc who just didn't take her issues seriously, and didn't treat her obviously. These docs at the ER are just not qualified to treat something as complex as what Dixie is going through right now. And of course, none of them want to give narcotic pain meds.
The doc on duty wants her to see a therapist on Monday, so we will see how that goes. Tim, her hubby, is hopeful though. All of the love and support is really helping, and the fact that Chily is walking him through all of the steps of what is going to happen, because she's been where Dix is, is really, really helping him. He is so thankful for all of the support for his wife. He has said that he is going to start taking a LOT more of the responsibility off of Dixie's shoulders, so she can deal with what she needs too.
Please keep praying, HARD, that she will get in to see a doctor that REALLY is interested in not only treating her depression, but her pain. We ALL know what being at a 10 pain level, without a break can do to us emotionally. It's a blessing that she's getting all the support from us, but she NEEDS a doctor to help by addressing ALL OF HER ISSUES! So please pray for that.
I'm also asking for prayer for Chily. She is so tired, not because of this situation with Dixie so much as because she is dealing with some personal issues herself. She's not sleeping at all, and we also know what that can do to us.
Please keep sending lots, and lots of hugs to Dixie and her hubby and don't forget Chily. Dixie was able to pop on for a few minutes to just check her hugs, and it brought a smile to her face, realizing how much she was loved and missed. So PLEASE keep them coming.
I guess that's all for now. Chily or I will do our best to keep you all as up to date as we possibly can. We know you all love her trememdously, and want her back. Thank you so much to everyone who has taken this seriously, and supported her, without criticizm. You all are amazing!
