Dinner, Toe, Pools, Colorful, and Lily
Thursday afternoon, I
met this folks from school for
dinner. One woman was in from
Fla. so we met so she could
visit.
I was not going to go
but I had a pretty good
day up till then, so I got
dressed and went. Glad I did.
Wed. however, was a horrible
day. I hurt so bad. I have yet to pin
point why on some days I hurt
bad and other days I don't.
Yesterday after having such a
bad day, I called the doc
I had an apt with
for Friday. They changed my
apt date from Friday till
Thursday morn. I learned
a lot.
First, without saying what group
of docs I had seen, she knew.
When I told her about the
new method he wanted to
do, she knew. She also told
me that through research it
has been discovered that this
new method should not be
used unless the older
way does not work.
INTERESTING.
Secondly, she told me that I
should not have this pain I am
having. That the only time
you have pain with a stone is
when it has moved out of
the kidney and is moving out
of the body. With it in the kidney,
I should have no pain.
UNLESS....
the stone is blocking or partly
blocking the opening to the tube.
INTERESTING.
With that being said, it will
take a little time to
set up the surgery at the
hospital, the anesthesiologist and
all that requires. With the pain
I am having though, they are
setting up the OR for
a catheter to be placed.
That will help with
the pain and hopes are
that I only will wear it for
a few days.
Not something I am
looking forward to but after
the pain I had yesterday,
the nausea that came with it,
then the dry heaves, I am willing
to do what I have to do.
Seriously, the pain was so
bad, I could not
get comfy at all. It took
me to my knees and it had
me crying.
It got me geared up and
changing docs so I can
get this bad boy out.
With that, she called
me in a script for the nausea.
Since I had gastric bypass surgery,
I have not been able to
up chuck. Yep, I went there.
I just have dry heaves, which
is not good. Makes the stone
hurt even more.
Before I move on to something
more interesting or at least
fun, I wanted to share my
latest injury with you.
While trying to get comfy
yesterday during all the pain,
I closed the screened
door on my baby toe.
24 hours later, this is
what it looks like.
Now, moving on!
I love this idea.
I think this would be fun
to do before summers
end!
Would you ever do
something like this with
your friends?
While scrolling FB I
ran across this pic.
In the sun puddle.
on getting some pics
of Misty. She is either
on the deck or in the bed
and Lily is hanging with
me more.
Hoping your day if filled
with smiles.

That is a fun idea with the pools. If I was a whole lot younger I might be willing to do something like that.
Love that colorful table and chairs. It's not something I would want in my house but I love the artistic side of it.
That last picture of the bird reminds me of the one I drew for work. I wonder if that's the picture I saw that I was trying to copy.
I hope you get some help soon for that awful pain you are having! Take care!
Sorry about all the pain. I'm a triage phone nurse and I know that when you talk to someone and bring up their chart, you often can tell just what's happening and what the doc is planning. I hope they get to the bottom of your issues.
I like the bring your own pool party!
