I had a bit of "guilting" by people I know who follow this blog about dropping off the face of the earth but I had some personal "business" to tend to. Now with the benefit of Lexapro (an antidepressant) I am past the tears and trying to find my way "home".
My relationship of 18+ years crumbled. It came as a shock as I thought he was the one and never dreamed that I'd be living in a rental house without furniture other than a chair my daughter loaned me and a bed my mother loaned my daughter. How's that for funny? My youngest grand was very concerned that MeMaw didn't have furniture or even food in her house but she loved the idea that we would "camp" when she visited.
But, I do have all three of my cats and they have adjusted wonderfully. The one I worried about has turned out the most easily adjusted and enjoys lap sitting and attention from your's truly which makes me proud as a peacock.
I am doing treatment for the Hepatitis C...have done shot 3 this week but have had to discontinue the ribavirin as my kidneys are not doing very well at this time. They have decreased my antirejection meds lower than they were before I started rejecting in hopes that my renal function would improve...and it hasn't. Each wednesday when I inject my interferon, I think...OUCH my credit card can't keep handling this $1100 co-pay and then I enjoy my days of shakes, fever and aches. But, it is my POSITIVE in life.
Please keep our Deb in your thoughts as she is having some major life problems with her husband's health right now. I send my love to her as she has a lot on her shoulders.
Thanks for you patience with me and Keep Your Spirits High...robin

Robin -
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry about what you are going through. My marriage fell apart when I was on Hep tx, or maybe that was just the last nail in its coffin. You've already proved you're a survivor and you'll get through this.
Can't you get Medicaid?
All the best,
MYS
Wow. I can't believe you're going through all those adjustments in addition to treatment. I'm amazed. I hope you hang in there and find success at the end.
