I have been missing out a few days, still getting caught up. Hope you are healing up in a happy & positive way, or as happy & positive as it can get! Take it easy, let shrek take care of you, I'm sure he is good at it. He sounds very nuturing & caring. Keeping pressure on our incision,as you know, will help reduce the pain, especially when coughing or laughing My 10" front incision is healed up after last April. Funny how I can feel it from the inside when I lift to much weight. Take care!Hi ~Cat!
I am certainly glad you are feeling better.
I'm feeling fine, still having some problems with pain. But they are helping me out with that as much as they can. And Shrek forgot my teeth...so I am fairly harmless right now. Hugs, Fiona
Welcome home! Glad to hear you are back home!!Hi, Hi!! I am home. Had a nap and feel pretty good. It was nice to nap in my bed!
No bell? Bummer. I'll bet you could find some "interesting" noises to play on your computer.
You aren't going shopping yet are you?
It is. I have spent a too much time playing with that. I think it's designed for 3 year olds. I first got a link to it in the '90s.Okay, that is silly, Thanks!
I think I'm coming down with pneumonia. I hope I can get in to see my doctor on Monday.
I thought you might be interested in these articles. It's amazing how busy our minds and bodies are while we're sleeping.

Cat, my first reaction to when I become scared or worried is to get angry. Stupid, I know. And that is what I was feeling when Lakisha sent us the news. But I am glad to hear that you are getting real rest. And it wouldn't hurt you to take in some of that soup you made for Mama. Chicken soup has a lot of medicinal qualities when you are sick. When my daughter has pneumonia, she had two lobes that had fluid in them. I made a pot of broth for her and put it in a thermos and brought it to the hospital. The nurses had her take small sips and by day three, she was able to breath without the oxygen. The doctor said that it was the soup that made her want to fight back and get better. She had no idea that I had been sitting by her bed for more than 24 hours. It was when the nurse gave her that sip of the broth, that she started to recover. She knew I was there.
My goodness, you certainly have had an eventful visit with your parents. Never a dull moment in your home. If I show up at your door someday, turn me around and send me right back home. Too much excitement there.
I feel a little better today. This has been going on for 2 weeks. Feel good, feel terrible. Back and forth. I got concerned yesterday because that was the first day I showed a fever. I started out coughing up a really ugly color, but now it is clear. That's a good sign, but the fever concerned me. I am going to buy a new thermometer today as I don't like the one I have.
Winthrop has me checking my phlegm all the time. It is one of the questions they ask me all the time. With COPD I need to keep an eye on it. I always have a Kleenix with me and when I cough up any phlegm, I do so into the Kleenix and immediately check it. I know to those not family, it looks like a nasty thing to do. But I am more concerned with my health than their feelings.
