Angiogram done and 3 stints inserted. But she just tore the sheath from where the did the angiogram so now they are working to fix that.
I'm going to send a care package tomorrow. A boa for her IV pole (hospital tradition started by my mom), Chapstick, unscented lotion, crazy socks, and a bell to summon her hubby once she is home. Any other ideas that might bring a smile to a post heart attack person?
Tell her the story of my husband, who has survived double digit heart attacks and single-handedly raised the survival rate for our county. He has 4 stents and is still chugging along.
Suzi, so much ~ma for your cousin. I love the idea of the boa for the IV pole!
Teppy, I'm sorry to hear about your car AC. Why do cars seem to have a 6th sense for when we don't have the money to fix them, and then break? Evil money suckers.
I had all the sleep last night and didn't leave any for tonight. Silly me. Also I'm fairly certain that I am still not pregnant, so I need to suck it up and make a follow up appointment with the fertility doctor tomorrow. Please no one tell me stories about someone they know having triplets between now and then.
Maybe it might just need a freon charge? I'm sorry Teppy.
Much ~ma for your cousin, Suzi.
but not play them in my head as an endless anxiety loop.
I would love to learn how not to do this. Sometimes I can stop myself, but others... well.. I just can't.
Speaking of, I got some really crappy news tonight and it's taking a good bit to not go down that anxiety loop. Don't want to get into detail just yet, but looks like another family member has cancer. Not sure how bad it is as tests are still inconclusive, so trying not to borrow trouble.
~ma for your cousin, Suzi, and your family, Burrell.
Steph, I wish you the opposite of the "Old Chinese Curse" - I hope you will very soon be living in "Less Interesting Times". Good luck, coping-ma.
Dear The Universe, when I've said that I like the British NHS, I didn't mean that I would like a near relative to get to experience it. The day before we're leaving. Sigh. My brother has foot/leg issues, so health-ma would be appreciated.
I can't do this. I can't get through today. I can't stop crying long enough to get ready to go to work. I feel like I'm being crushed.
Can you take the day off? Hang with Kato and put off dealing for a day?
Teppy, I agree with brenda, take a sick day if you can.
