The rest of my life
I know that I am dying. My husband will be devistated. We have been married 16 yesrs (his 2nd,, my first.) I am trying to have hope, but it is getting harder by the day.
Any tips on how to remain focused without excluding my husband?
December was a rough month. Week 1 went to hospital due to intense pain in my back. after 5 days, they sent me home with no resolution. After 3 days home I went back to hospital for the same reason. Everyone was so focused on my emphysema which I did have pneumonia. They finally did a c scan and discovered 2 fractured vertibrea and 2 broken ribs. They preformed a prodedure alled a kyphoplasty Which was a complete success. Went home and 3 days later I am back in the hospital because the disc below the one they did the procedure. Lo and behold, that one is cracked too.
Its hard to remain my Pollyanna persona. I am on meds for depression and panic attacks. They work, just fast enough.
Did I mention I now have stress incontanance?
What ever tips and tricks anyone may share with me, I will be eternally greatful.

Columbia left a message on my answering machine to set up some more tests in March. I live in upstate NY about 70 miles. At least something is going in the right direction.
