I'm tired of cooking/preparing 3 meals a day. It's just the two of us but boy oh boy can that woman eat!! She stays slimish, I get fattish. It's bad enough I do everything here much less start making her one thing and me the other. At times I feel guilty when I buy her fast food cuz of the nutritional value....not to mention I eat it too.
It’s hard , but try to file it under “ I tried”. And try to enjoy the rest of the weekend.
Gosh, that’s frustrating! What is your next step? Did they recommend anything to you?
You definitely should see someone who specializes in wound care. My mother’s home health nurse was excellent! She specialized in wound care. She ordered specific ointment which was paid for by Medicare. It seems like she ordered two different types.
I wish that I could remember the names of the products. Mom died several years ago and I can’t remember the name of the meds that she ordered. I think mom had to leave it on for an extended period of time.
Perhaps you can get your primary care physician to write a script “ to be evaluated and treated at the wound care clinic “. Maybe that would work .
Listening to a kitten purr is so very sweet! I have always been a cat person. I hate that I am horribly allergic to cats, dogs, and many other animals and things.
Thank you, too, golden and Alva. Bad migraine starting. God is mad at me. I strongly advocated for myself, Alva. They almost saw the not so nice side of Ll.
Cats are curious creatures!
They just said on the news that the guy didn’t die but is in grave condition.
It’s scary to think about bullets going through the window and killing somebody.
I don’t own a gun. I have friends who are single and have bought guns to protect themselves. They go to target practice on a regular basis.
The EMTs would tell me that sometimes they were afraid to enter homes in fear of being shot. Sad, isn’t it?
I think it’s because I’ve been purging and reorganizing things . She’s nosey about what’s going on .
Need, crime is bad in a lot of places that did not used to have a lot
Crime is out of hand. A carjacking bill is up for debate where the sentencing will increase from a two year jail sentence to a five year sentence. Both parties are supporting this bill.
I hope our new governor can do something about our crime. He has a background in law enforcement. We’ll see.
I certainly hope that you will find relief soon. When our feet hurt, everything hurts!
I hate pressure sores. For this I say followup followup and followup and do not ignore, don't let anyone else ignore.
You all know the by now boring story of how much my bro wished to die rather than facing down the inevitabilies of his probable Lewy's diagnosis, and that he GOT that wish, and I am more and more grateful for that as the years pass and I know what his losses now would be.
BUT he died of sepsis and that of a TINY non healing wound on his shin that he mentioned to no one. What did he use? Triple antibiotic ointment, his usual getting out and walking. But it went to sepsis and MRSA, resistant to all help. One week in hospital. One back home on hospice and he was gone.
This was what he wanted.
But you DON'T. Please watch this and don't ignore as they can QUICKLY go south, causing loss of tissue much in the way a cat abscess does, silently, down under the skin, going toward the bone.
Please take good care of yourself.
Barb, what great news about hubby!
Glad they recommend wound care clinic . Best idea . The mattress topper sounds great too . They also have gel pads you can buy for your chair during the day .
Hoping that you got some sleep and will find relief and healing for your sore soon. Hugs!
