Well as it turned out, I ended up back in the emergency room with diverticulitis again like last time. It was a long hideous night with a cat scan and 4 people and 10 needles to start my IV. Finally the respiratory therapist found my vein. I had a few other problems so it was good I went in. Lots of drugs and antibiotics later, I am on the mend with that.
Chelsea and Dana and family surprised me and drive up to Richmond after their church to check on me and keep me company. It was such a nice surprise. They didn't even call...just showed up for 1 night. I would have told them not to come so far ( 3 hours) . It was very thoughtful of them. Here is Gigi and I hanging out in my bed. She loves my pretzels....I have a big container in my room. Keeps her happy if I just keep feeding her.
I went to the doc today and things look good so far. I can't put weight on it yet so 2-4 more weeks in bed. Yuck! Thus is been way too long. But somehow I will press on. My medication is making me weepy and very emotional. It is a side effect. But is helps with the pain.
I have had so much love and support......I could have never gotten through this without my friends an family. And Greg being my devoted nurse.
And to top it off a little girl in my primary class , made me some pillowcases all by herself and cme to visit with her mom. ....so so sweet. Also another lady in m ward, Pam Vaughn, brought me a cool shawl thing you put in the microwave to heat up. ....so very thoughful. And the Mia Maids came to visit and brought me cute notes and cookies. Even the entire priest quorun came with their YM's president, Hunter Lansing, to bless and pass us the sacrament one Sunday.
People have been so amazing all the time....everyday.
I am truly blessed.
