WHOA! Who put the stamp of death on me? There is no expiration date set on me,

"I've just read that I am dead. Don't forget to delete me from your list of subscribers."

--Rudyard Kipling, letter to a magazine that had prematurely published his obituary

Good to hear your subscriptions are still running!

I can't. I just dropped dead after.

Strained my back this morning

Ouch!

[rhondabrwn]

Having trouble getting on my feet and moving around the last couple of days [:(] Swollen feet... they are making progress in getting my Femur break operation site cleaned up... it was looking pretty nasty. They were just letting it fester [:'(]

The nursing at Rehab was terrible. Giving me diuretic to now shrink the swelling on the legs and that is working.

Not a happy camper but two good nurses are visiting now and doing daily cleanouts and disinfection also injected antibiotics.

Not feeling well... tired all the time [:'(] [>:]

Do you have a laptop, so you can communicate and game in bed? Or do you need to do those things on a desktop PC, at a desk?

Same thing with me [:)] Still recovering (it's going to take easily another year [:(]) from the brain stroke and doing a lot of rehab. The thing is I am not physically tired, but mentally tired. I never thought you could be mentally tired but that's exactly the case. The brain is doing most of the job, trying to convince unemployed neurons to be in charge of the left part of the body [:D] Brain Plasticity, they call it. Reaaaally slow process and tiring. It's apparently working so fair enough and er... patience [8D]

A good part of that may be the drugs, not sure though.

I can relate to the sleeping, since my injury that seems to be all I do. the pressure on the spinal cord make s me very tired causing me to sleep. Another two weeks and the doctor says after the operation I will be completely recovered. That is, after 5 months of recovery in a upper body brace.

Take courage Rhondabrwn.
