Explaining Myself
Hi Friends,
Thank you so much for all your encouragement, advice and warm wishes. I apologize for being so negative lately and I want to explain what is going on with me.
My mom has been in the hospital for the last three months (with the occassional week at home here and there). She has had major back surgery, blood clots, excruciating back spasms, 5 trips to the emergency room, another broken vertebre, diverticulitis with an abscess the size of an orange, panic attacks, depression, 2 rounds of physical and occupational therapy and needs constant assistance while she heals. I will also need to be administering 5 IV's of antibiotics to her for the next few weeks after she us released from the hospital again.
I am just very physically and mentally exhausted. I have spent a part of virtually every day with her for the last three months, either visiting her in the hospital or caring for her at my sister's house. I'm doing this all while working full time and trying to work through my own personal N induced depression and anxiety.
Thanks so much for all of the love lately, especially since I've been so cranky and weepy. But, I think my pity party has stretched out a long enough and I am ready for some positive energy again.
I vow right now to return to my normally more upbeat smiley pink ice cream cone state of mind. *fist pump*
(((Hugs))) to all my friends,
Harmony
