~Im Tryin~
I am very seriously trying to feel better but not doing
 a very good job. I got up early this morning and hoped
 I would feel better..As the morning wore on I could feel
 my self fading and longing to go back to my bed. I did
 stay up for a while and did get my inbox cleared out
 and said hello to some friends...but I had to go back
 and lay it down.. I have been taking my pills so I had
 to eat something before I do, the one pill says to take
 with food.. I had some left over mashed potatoes  so
 I had that and then went to find my bed again..
 My boy called last nite, said my phone rang 7 times
 before I answered it and it was right next to me. I 
 must have been in a sound sleep, I did have the TV
 on though..and the ring is not very loud on my phone.
 He said if I hadnt answered he was prepared to come
 over here to check on me.. Hes such a good kid.. He
 did go back to work..but a desk job so to speak..hes
 not up and walking around a lot.. Hes been back to
 the Dr and the graft doesn't seem to be sticking like
 it should so they are keeping a close eye on it..
 I noticed since I have been in bed so much these 
 past few days how badly my right stump aches..It
 goes into this sleep as I call it..and it really does
 ache.. I wish I had a better mattress I think that is
 the real problem.. Ive tried laying on my side but
 that gets uncomfortable since my left stump is
 bigger and heavier and puts more weight on my hip
 and that makes my hip ache.. I have more problems
 it seems :-)   I will be glad though when I don't have
 to spend so much time in there..
 My boys have enjoyed mom being in bed so much
 though since that's all they do themselves is sleep.
 LB whines and meows and even brings his girl
 friend up on the bed with us.. Dutch hes a day sleeper
 and prowls quite a bit at nite.. He still chases shadows.
I Had an appoint ment today with THeresa from CMH
 I Had an appoint ment today with THeresa from CMH
and I canceled it as I didn't want to give this to her  and
 then she take it home to her family.. I think that's how
 all this stuff spreads so badly... I know  I have heard
 from many that there are a lot of people sick with this.
 Some have ended up in hospital..and as badly as I
 feel I can understand why...
 I want to thank you all again for the get well wishes ..I
 am trying VERY hard to do just that. But I really do
 appreciate your TLC.. means a lot to me.. Its time to
 head back to my bed again..Hopefully tomorrow will
 be a better day.. "Nitey Nite"
 Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love ya..And thanks!
ALways, Lois ****
 God Bless you is my prayer today,
 I'm so honored to call you "friend";
 I pray the Lord will keep you safe
 until I write again..

Hi, Honey,
These things always take longer than you hope for! Management has only just got(sorry, gotten!!) over her Thyroid problem. It must have taken three months. Now she is working her butt off, which is her usual form!! Lets hope you will soon be feeling 100% again. Just look forward to that bed and the new power chair.
Lots of love and great big hugs from
Roaife

Just take it slowly - there is no need to rush - sleep when you want to, eat when you want to - wish I could sleep when I want to - that would be heaven lol
Yes tomorrow will be a better day for you - I just know it will.
Love to the boys

One of my cats comes to sit on my chest when I first go to bed. Then I stroke her head and she is happy. The other cat will come next to the bed, but she is very shy about climbing up on the bed.

It take a while to get better at time, just take it easy and get plenty of rest.
