All my energy was taken by the day in and day out work of Caregiver. I was not alone by any means but at no time did I ever not think about it. It was a relief to be out of the hospital but I was so focused on the journey I could not not think about it.
It was a better stay because I knew we were there for a long long time. None of the: Do we go home today? Do we have to stay longer? When will the counts return. When will we have a chance to go out on pass.
We were settled in. We did have the strength to be helpful to the newly diagnosed. The recently relapsed, the long term transplant people. I had the energy to continue my quest for better healthy and safe food.
Because of our small tightly enclosed world I did miss a few things. Did you know that gas went to $4.15 a gallon? Did you know that there are only 3 crazy republican candidates left? Did you know that if you take birth control pill Rush Limbach wants to watch Porno?
I have decided to continue to ignore all the serious stuff. I am sorting seeds, enjoying my daffodils and watching the birds. I am walking the dog, looking forward to the return of Lily.
We are so so lucky.
