Good morning, Loungettes! A toasty 39 degrees this ayem! Saw a post from DorKable on FB, she sounds much better, thing are looking up, that is good news!
Karen--I've had mornings like that, Sadie gets me up, usually with a loud woof in my ear or a cold nose on my neck, startling but effective! Enjoy your visit with DD and SIL.
Cammy--I hope Joey gets feeling better ASAP! But it is nice to have a living heating pad in bed, isn’t it?
Juliet--LOL!!
ORLA--Hooray for good work in class! Good talking with you last night, too!
Becs--good new job and a friend starting, too, WOW!
Karen--I'm going to start stealing your menus!
BBBBBernie--LOL!!!
Cammy--getting stuff in the mail is fun!

Hi girls,
I have been trying so hard to update you all but seems that as soon as I start, I am either given a IV loaded with morphine or a doctor comes in or I am drifting off to sleep. I have to be quick as the nurse is coming back to change out my IV again. btw, I can feel the pain of NM and others who have issues with the IV's. I have had two veins collapse already. I had not realized that the stuff that goes in them sort of corrodes the artery or sumeting like that.
*************************************
I started the above yesturdey. I had an intention of giving you all a full update. I did update on facebook and I know a few of you saw that. But for those not on facebook, here was my update from last night. I am still waiting for surgeon to come in today, hoping to be out of here tomorrow. It has been a week! Ok, here you go and my apologies for not updating sooner. Sometime I suck!
from facebook:
UPDATE (for those who care. for, those who don't, do us a favor and delete me) ...
Still waiting on results of umbilical culture and stomach incision along with lab report on the fluid that was drained from abdomen. Can't be discharged until these labs are back and clear.The hospital and team of doctors have been wonderful, only issue is that they do not have in-house surgeons. They're working on bringing a surgeon from off site for debridement surgery. I am hopeful that they will send me home SOON, with a pic line to keep the IV antibiotics flowing. I want to kick this nasty infection that I caught from the Univ of Filthadelphia to the curb so that I can get back to living! Thanks to my loyal friends, coworkers/former coworkers, to my loving breast friends and to my family members who have supported me throughout this three plus year journey. I am finally seeing the light and feeling better. Onward and upward!
~ UPDATE brought to you by Kennedy Health Luxury Resort and Palace in Cherry Hill NJ (ok, it is a hospital but sure love being treated like a VIP guest) lolANYWAYS, I have to tail ye all sumeting berry funny so that I do not forget.

Can I get mine in a "to go" cup Lara? What did you find out about your back? Hope it's feeling better!
See you Sat Karen! Happy trails.
Cami, my friend was my former teammate at the rehab hospital we used to work at. He and I gel and we pretty much laugh all day so I am happy he will be there! He will also help me with heavy lifting.
NM, 39 deezgreez? Burrrrr! Sounds fabulous to me tho. I'm such a hot mamma in these special, I mean menopause Olympics!
Ok goils....gotta run. So happy to hear Dorky is better and may be parolled soon!!! Yay!
Happy humping! Xoxo0 -
Dork I'm glad u came on to tell about everything. cuz u know it's hard to retell, but by now something should be going on, I hope all good. U've been in so long. And oh veins that's horrible, that's why I kept my port. whenever I'm a quart low on something they use it. I forgot how awful that could be too. Just what u need more aggrevation and pain. I hope they find out soon so u can relax more and heal like u'r supposed to.
Lara I've got my scary movies on too and write to everyone. obviously that's what I do. U need help and u've got to get it.

I told u I went to my cousins Sat. and again I wish I could do that every week--but Nick-(my cousin) has very bad knee pain had a couple of operations and they're a mess---so he puts him arm around me and say I have it all figured out finaly- He said he took 2 vicodens and 1 drink of JD and coke and he really felt OK.I was so tempted to just have a beer even, but I'm paranoid about mixing pills---I don't take xanax if it's within 3 hrs. of pain meds. or aspirin if I take my pain meds, but I will with xanax--Nurses am I crazy or right. I want to know--I don't take 2 pain pills at the same time I take one then wait aboit an hr and take another 1/2 then, my pain lessens.
Lara I always forget what pain meds u'r on. and what everybody is on. But how long can u be on these things?
Joey story--I told u he was sick and his temp was kind of high, so Leslie was giving him some kids stuff and toward evening I was with him and said it's about time for u'r coldand fever stuff and he said I don't know if I should take another dose. Why I asked and he said I don't want any liver damage. I told him he was on it one day, nothings going to happen--he said well I don't want to be the first it happens to. Now that's not really funny but see how much attention is paid to what going on around him. I'm sure all our GC or kids pick everything up--we're scaring the hell out of them.

Three nurses arrive at the pearly gates. St. Peter asks the first why he should admit her. She replies that she has been an emergency room nurse and has saved thousands and thousands of lives.
"OK", he says, "Come on in!"
The second reports that he has been an ICU nurse and he, too, has saved thousands and thousands of lives. St. Peter lets him in, too. St. Peter asks the third nurse the same question.
She replies that she has been a managed care nurse and has saved thousands and thousands of dollars for the insurance company.
St. Peter replies, "OK. Come on in. But you can only stay three days."

Good morning, Loungettes! Heat wave, it's 43 degrees this ayem! May hit 80 today. Is it Friday yet? NO? Sigh.
Cammy--yeah, kids recover from stuff so fast!
ORLA--Good luck with the medical board! Let us know how it goes.
Karen--try to get some rest sometime soon!
Neat Drink recipe!
DorKable! !!! Heard any results yet? I know what it's like to be tied to medication schedules and doctor's visits, no fun, sleep when you can.
Becs--yup, we're in the time of year when we get 20 to 30 degree swings in the temp through the course of the day!
Cammy--(1) if your prescription says you can take 2 pain pills, and since you already know one pill isn't quite enough, TAKE TWO AT THE SAME TIME. (2) it is safe to take xanax and pain pills at the same time. In fact, the pain pills may work better if xanax is taken with them. Yes, you may be sleepier than usual, but is a nap such a bad thing? (3) talk to your doc about needing 1 and a half pain pills, you need a higher dose than one pill to manage your pain. (4) mixing alcohol and pain pills is not a wise thing to do, but in reality people taking pain meds long term do drink sometimes and have no issues. Not something to do on a regular basis by any means, but an occasional drink probably won't hurt anything. And it is amazing what kids pick up on, isn't it?
Mema--Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike! What day is it? And I did see the pulmonologist Tuesday, and (surprise) I have asthma. Not much more I can do to control it than I'm doing (besides losing weight, exercising, not sleeping with the dog, giving up caffeine). Got a new inhaler to use twice a day to help ward off reactions. Need to see my provider ASAP when I catch a cold so I can get on antibiotics and steroids. No need to see the pulmonologist again. Now to see how this winter goes. Not giving up sleeping with Sadie. Been trying to lose weight for decades. Know I need to exercise. Thinking about switching to decaff. We'll see. HOORAY for NED and NO METS!!!!!
DORKY'S HOME!! DORKY'S HOME!! DORKY'S HOME!!!
Juliet--Oncology? Really? How did it go?
BBBBBernie--LOL!!

Morning DahhhhLinKs!!
Thanks for the warm welcome back!
D - glad you are not dwinking...mese tinks it will minimize the effect of the anti-b's. Sooo thrilled you are home too...there is 'no place like home' dat is fer sure. Speaking of dat...u n me talk in a widdle bit bout keeping ur house in order K girlfriend!
Cami - I agree with what NM sez bout pain pills...they won't work if you don't take them and if the dose isn't right say sumpin to ur docs and make them up the dose or gib u stronger ones.
Re - da separation...I am serious if things don't change around here. Getting tired of talking and not being heard, but will give the 'talk' again soon and see what happens. Crazy cuz in about 1 month will b our 20th anniversary...jes not feeling any celebratory emotions right now. Mebe mese jes needs a few nights wif da Tenders to adjust my 'tude eh? Yeah yeah, dats da ticket. I will be fine...no worries.
Lara - I wanted killya sooo bad last night but stuck to wodka...mebe today I'll hit da patron'...heehee!
Julie - Tues one of my chemo nurses was floating w/my onco. She did my vitals n stuff den left da room. I kept waiting for her to come back and gib me my pink paper gown and next thing I knew my onco was standing in da room. I sed 'ooppss, ms Crystal missed a step' and we both cwacked up. Onco sed they trying to cross-train and it was kinda nightmare. But I told her I cud tell Crystal was berry berry noivous, poor thing.
Bernie - LOL yeah...only 3 days...too phunny!
NM - Not good about da asthma dx. But good to have an answer, and yes, jump on the steriods the minute you feel a cold coming on. I don't think I could give up sleeping with my pooches either, losing weight I still struggle with, exercise has been minimal with my back and foot pain, but I have been using my eliptical and started with yoga..OUCH!! The yoga hurts like hell...muscle spasms in places I didn't think wud spasms, but am going to stick with it in hopes it does strengthen my back some. Good luck with everything K?
Hope everyone has a vundervull day!!

ammy--I've actually had asthma since childhood, I was diagnosed in my 20's. Up until a couple of years ago it was annoying at times, and no big deal. The last 2 years I've been in ERs and admitted once with asthma problems, and I'm trying to break the pattern. So I'm starting a long term control medication, and will be talking to my primary provider to see if I can get some codiene-based cough medicine in the house before I need it. Once I start coughing it is almost impossible to stop, and I end up feeling like I'm going to die. So if I can head that off at the pass, so to speak. Time will tell if the new strategy will work or not. And you aren't overreacting, you just don't have all the facts to work with. Not giving up sleeping with the dog, the doc even admitted he never gets anyone to go with that.
Oooh, I'll tuck him in any night! or day, or afternoon, or morning. . .
ORLA--too hungover to drink? NOT FAIR!
Mema--Yikes, not feeling celebratory at 20 years, that's a problem! Thanks for the support!
DorK--there's a whole line of dwinkies waiting for you on the bar!
