~BUTT~
You are going to LOVE this subject tonite lol.. I have a SORE BUTT lol... I do.. it started yesterday..well Its NOT my butt its my tail bone..i mean this thing is just super sore.. I have put every thing from soup to nuts on it to ease it up, so far nothing is working.. I stayed on my bed kinda laying on my side most of the day today. I very seldom have gotten any kind of bad spot like this.. I dont know what I did to deserve to get one now lol... hmmm no.. I cant think of anything.. You dont suppose my bed is starting to attack me like my kitchen do you? ohoh..that would not be good, in THIS place..no telling. any thing is possible.... :-) I guess it may be time to flip or do something to this mattress -- I have been saying that for quite a while..but no one has come by that has the time..Its not that simple a thing to do.. Well flippin it isnt hard but the rest is alot of work..To strip the bed..then to re make it..thats a MAJOR thing..It is SO not easy to make this bed not by me anyway. I do think I described what I have to do to change the sheets and bedding etc... Its a major project.. Stan hasnt been coming with my sis..and Donnie- bless his heart- stays so busy.. he just started his 3 rd job..I just cannot ask that kid to take what spare time he needs for Dawn to come here and do this for me... Ok.. any volunteers?? lol.. I think my to do list just keeps growing..but this bed issue has got to be resolved..I think that is a major reason I am not sleeping good and now with this SORE spot..GRRRR...lol.. it really is a buggar .. hard to sit even... This cream ..well its not really a cream..its like a blue gel looking stuff.. I got it when I was in the hellhome.. and It is THE best stuff..works so good and fast..well it DID.. its kinda slow this time.. But that could be cuz its 5 yrs old too...I wonder if the potency ran out? Could have by now.. I dont think they have this by prescription. but it sure works good.. This spot should clear up in a day or two if I am careful...and keep a close eye on it.. ya that sounds ok..now HOW do I LOOK at my tailbone? lol duh...i guess i should say TOUCH on it.. and if I scream when I touch it ..well that means its NOT healed :-)...it should heal..it has before... I sometimes think if the cook for the COA was forced to eat her own cooking do you think our lunches would be better? maybe the woman has no taste? I am amazed sometimes at what they send..the desire to eat the food they send is surely not there.. Its pathetic looking ..and hard to guess what it even is.. Now some of the food IS good..the spaghetti..the meat loaf..very good.. but 80% of it is just not edible..not by me anyway... I think about these poor people that are getting their lunches so late now..1:30 in the afternoon... that has got to be just putting them out if they have to take meds ..I live right across the street from COA..and get mine LAST .. This building, there are 6 of us here that get the lunch.. we get ours last..we are the last stop before they go back to the center..I asked them why dont they take turns going one way for awhile then the other? Just seems so ironic we live the closest and have to wait the longest ..they start to deliver at 11:30..or so I think... go figure...lol Well at least I know the food in my kitchen is good lol..I dont know what I am going to fix but I am starved...maybe some soup that wont take long and I can get back up on the bed and off this tail lol...I would think i had enough padding back there ya know? sheesh.. hmmm - does that mean im skinny? hahaha ya right miss skinny weeble...with a sore BUTT lol.. ok..im gonna hit Publish and get some food.. nitey nite.. Y'all have a good one now Y'hear? LUV YA !!!!! & THANKS!!! Always, Lois**** May God Bless you today, I'm so honored to call you friend, I pray the Lord will keep you safe, Until I write again... | |||

I would gladly volunteer to flip your mattress over and change the bedding... you just have to move somewhere closer first.
I don't know if you have a visiting nurse or someone like that comes to your building, but I know from my experience with friends and relatives that possible pressure sores are a serious business, and it might be a good idea to have it looked at.
How to look at your tailbone? It seems like you would need two mirrors. Or perhaps a toy periscope. It's the sort of thing I could imagine in deluxe form at the Sharper Image, couched in elegant marketing language, coated lenses and everything.. After all, they do a brisk business in upscale nose hair trimmers.
Perhaps you could rig something up with you camera? I have an amusing image involving your camera, the timer, and many amusing takes and double takes, none of them quite right. In general,
I think that most of your correspondents here would be happy to assist with any necessary inspections, but we will not go there.
Your ideas for rescheduling and making the cook eat her own food are good ones. I've worked with COAs, and in the ones I've known they are always desperate for consumer representatives. You could volunteer to be a rep and become a voice for truth, scheduling justice, and the Good Cooking Way.
Thanks for baring your butt to us at the risk of being the butt of our humor. I hope your sensitive area feels better soon. Thanks for taking the time to sit on your soreness long enough to write another long post to us all.
Good night, and good luck.
-Gray
What is this miraculous blue gel called? Sounds like usefull stuff.

Dear Lois,
I am so sorry that your butt is sore. Gray is right - you ought to get it checked out right away - I guess you are short of parts of you to park on permanently!! With one of those ring cussions, you could take the pressure in areas around your tail bone. A Tempur matress would probably help, too.
Take care, my dear, hope the butt feels easier to-day, lots of love and hugs from
Raife.

Dearest little Lois!
This is a serious problem thats true, cause sitting is the only available choice for you.
quote gray: "Perhaps you could rig something up with you camera?" End quote
Hmm a good idea maybee, and we are many that could look at it for you. The payment for consultation would be lookin at your wonderful butt.....
Honestly Lois have you ever tried to lay on your stomach? Yes i know what you say...You CANT lay in that position, well i cant either but it IS POSSIBLE. Listen to this hon: You place a pillow beneth your stomach, and dont bother if that is your highest point, its necessary for the function. You can put another pillow under your head, and see it is possible, and a way to release your butt from pressure. Belive me honey its the only way.... But you shud see a doctor or a nurse to get a powerful medicine.
Until things (your butt) get stabile again have it as good as you are worth, and thats pretty much...

Morning!!!! How nice to read all this..makes me feel so good that y'all are concerned for me and my BUTT lol..Thanks tho I do appreciate it..and all the great suggestions..
Yeahh I can just imagine where the mind goes thinking of me trying to take a video clip of MY BUTT lol.. too funny... :-) I have no shame.. I just tell everything LOL...
The COA here Knows me quite well lol.. they recognize my voice when I phone...lol..they dont like me, thats why they wont provide me with a care giver..lol.
I think one of those new matresses might be really good for me. I have tried to lay on my stomach but if you saw all the scars it looks like a train yard it has so many "tracks" all over it..:-)
Hiya Lois!!! I'm glad y'all read my 2cents lol..sometimes dont make cents but oh well...Why is it when we get hungry we always talk or whatever about food? Happens to me all the time lol...haha look at my picture kinda shows :-)

Wow, two Loises. I'm seeing double on St. Patrick's day.
How does it feel to have so many friends trying to save your sorry butt?
Boston is crazy today. State workers have the day off- to celebrate "Evacuation Day" when George Washington and the Continental Army forced the British to evacuate Boston. My colleagues who work for the Commonwealth mostly are working anyway. They are hard working caring people who contradict all the stereotypes of government workers.
Beautiful clear sky here today.
Sending healing thoughts to Lois.
