She’s so picky

Originally posted 2022-03-11 15:54:50. Saoirse is such a picky eater, much less a picky dog in general. Must be from her being hit by a car in her young development. Or maybe it’s just Saoirse. There are times when she sniffs her food and walks away then the next day she’s eating some of it. Maybe she’s in pain and not hungry. Maybe she doesn’t particularly like the food we purchased. I don’t know but…

Chronic Living

Originally posted 2022-02-24 09:00:45. Living with someone with Chronic Pain/Illness. Everyday is a struggle. You have to sit back and witness the person you love in pain, often with no solution, no answers, and no end in sight. It’s never ending doctor’s appointments. It’s watching them lose everything, including their hobbies, their happiness, and their joy. It’s waking up in pain, not knowing if it’s going to ease or get worse. It’s having to get…

Morning Visions

Originally posted 2020-07-22 08:00:28. When I woke up this morning I awoke to the image of my momma laying there on the hospital bed in front of me… passed away. Looking like an angelic figure here on earth. That’s the last image of my momma I have. I begged my husband to let me go with her and to this day there is a big part of me that still wants to go with her.…

Crazy dream

Originally posted 2020-04-07 09:09:44. Well, hello there! Hope you are having a safe Tuesday morning with all this craziness around us. I had a crazy dream last night. In my dream it seemed as if we were still living in Marine Corps base housing and we were out for an evening walk. It wasn’t late but the sun has already gone down. The streets were well lit so it wasn’t exactly dark. It was me,…

Update to Cancer testing

Originally posted 2023-04-13 09:00:00. FINALLY!! So I went and had the cancer testing done to see if I am genetically susceptible to getting cancer. Now, this doesn’t cancel out my risk since it is a family history thing but it doesn’t mean I will get it either. This is just to see if I from a genetic standpoint. I had the test done by UNC Oncology. The test was just a blood draw and that…

Showerless Recovery

Originally posted 2020-01-17 18:29:33. As anyone knows during recovery from surgery you have limitations. One of which is taking a normal shower or bath. I was sent this box a few weeks ago and let me tell you, I am so glad I got it (so is my husband lol). I haven’t been able to take a shower but I needed to clean up somehow and standing up trying to wash myself up right now…

Recovery Time

Originally posted 2020-01-15 09:03:22. This was me yesterday as we were going home. My husband had gone into store to get me some coffee. I needed some, desperately. Surgery was a success. But they found some areas of concern that had “abnormal movement” as was stated by the surgeon to my husband.This will require more surgeries after this one. But first I have to recover from this one. I am trying to rest up today…
