its saturday.i am still sick. i was throwing up for days and pooping like no tomorrow. i was also bleeding out my bum for days. it was very scarey for me as i had no idea what was going on with me.
i knew it was not the flu. i spent an evening in the hospital and found i have a bacteria infection. i am still very sick. today i had some soup and lots of liquids, such as ginger ale and grapes. the good thing is i am eating and drinking. i was in bed for 3 days with this. my friend in london thinks i ate bad food. i dont think so. it would not have shown up in my bloodwork as me being sick. what started out as a simple cold ended up being something very bad.
i could be back to work next week, but will see how my energy levels are and make sure i dont pass out when i am standing up trying to do something. i have very limited energy right now and dont want to waste it.
i finally remembered to pass on a blanket i made for my grandson. it was his xmas present. i hope he likes it. i bought my son some dishes and cutlery. something i hope can use. i have not heard from my youngest son in weeks. i reached out but no reply. so i had no idea what to get my grand daughter for xmas. so i have no idea what is going on with him. maybe someday i will be included in his life.
i wanted to make him and his wife a blanket. i bought some yarn and have the pattern, but right now its on the back burner. no desire to even start it.
i stepped on the scale this morning and was shocked to see the number. i am 15lbs short of my goal. being sick has not helped , but still did not think i had lost that much so fast. i have to still figure out my scrub pants. taking them in so they are smaller and dont look as weird. my clients at work are asking about my weight. i dont like it. i am still getting used to it myself and someone else askes about it. feels strange and uncomfortable. i am not used to be noticed for good things.
i am so grateful for my oldest son and all the worry and help he has given me this week. without him i dont think i would be doing as well as i am. when i am back to work and feel able i will take him out for a very nice lunch as a bit of a thank you.
i have not had much energy to work on anything, so this entry will be somewhat quick.
