Update

Oh sweetie, I'm sorry I should of been alittle clearer. It is the ER that I am not impressed with..Sorry sometimes I don't make myself clear enough.  The hospital itself, I have not been in.  But I have been in MTMC and really liked it. My dr. that I liked so well is fix'n to open her own clinic. I'm not sure where.  But I have to have a dr. all the time. So when I changed this time, I didn't want to have to change again so soon and she get her office set up. I'll just stay where I am at. I really do like her. Hugs to ya. Barb

  Dang Kathy I had just talk to you a few hours before that.   hang in there prayer and strenghth going your way. love Annrenee

Well Dang, Annrenee, it hit me that fast.  I was just resting had my feet up watching a movie and got really hot, a/c was on, felt like I was going to pass out.  My thighs were like fire and still are.  I feel a lot better today.  STill in pain, but did manage to wash out a couple of loads and hung them out to dry.  Packed a few boxes, no lifting, just left them where they are.  Most of the kitchen is done, need to go the bathroom stuff and finish my room.  As soon as Cold Case Files goes off, I am going to scour the bathroom.  Then I just have to wipe it down on Tuesday.  Then when the fridge is packed up, just wipe it out, and take a mop to all the floors before turning in the key. 

Well, it's time I got the legs propped up, they are swelling, and take a pain pill.  I have done enough except for the bathroom, it has to be done, I spilled the cup after draining my tubes, so I need to do it tonight. 

Love ya

Oh Kathy I am so sorry you are having such a hard time. I wish there was something I could do for you. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Hopefully before long you will be back up and around and feeling so much better.  Brenda

Hi Brenda, please don't feel sorry for me.  Rejoice that I am able to walk, to talk, to hear,  to laugh, to love, to play with my grandsons.  Yes I have been thru so much over the last two years, but God has his reasons, I wait to find out what they are.  Every day I wake up is a blessing.  I won't deny that I have severe health problems.  I contribute it all to having Leukemia.  After all it is a blood cancer and is in my bone marrow.   I don't contribute the thigh surgery to Leukemia, and I still wish I had never had the surgery.  It's been a week, I am still putting out a lot of blood in my drain tubes, and it's bleeding still from the incision.   Just had my blood work done regarding my Leukemia.  The white cells have come up allowing me to fight the staph infection, but the red counts are so low, I mean very very low.  I had to get a shot to boost up my red cells.  The surgeon last week should have given me blood.  They were too low last week just prior to surgery, and they are even lower a week later.  But if they don't start going back up into the normal range, then my body will start rejecting it, and then I'll only be a live for another 1-2 years.  So far I have been fortunte.  But each day is another one to live for.  I am about to fall asleep from the pain pill I took earlier. Thank you.  Love Kathy
