I WISH... I HOPE... I PRAY.....10-19-15

-


I am still in the hospital.  
I have been inpatient since Wednesday.
I'm being treated for recurring pneumonia with several IV antibiotics, simultaneously through the day and night.
Worried that so many antibiotics, for so long,  may make me antibiotic resistant, I went to my attending with this concern of mine.
We talked. It could be worse for me, if we don't treat these recurring pneumonia s this aggressively he said.
I have to discuss this more with the specialist on Monday.
I wish people could realize how difficult it is living with being sick, over and over again and being inpatient, over and over again.
I try to stay +.  At times it's more difficult
I wish there were a magic pill that would make all this sickness go away. I haven't found a magic potent-Yet!
I think about home and my family and friends a lot.
I miss them so, so, very much!
The staff at the hospital I go for care are experienced, kind, compassionate.  I interact well with them and they with me.
I going to watch the sunrise again to day.
The sunrise gives me HOPE, HOPE in this new day
And..... I'm going to pray......

These medical miracles have improved the lives of multitudes and have also created paths of wellness in the lives an infinite number of others! Though this is fascinating news and it all benefits humankind, there are serious problems in the presentation of medical treatment. How medical professionals communicate with their patient(s)  can steal the worth and good out of these medical miracles. Through these medical marvels are wondrous, it feels to me that needed changes need to brought forth in how well these medical professionals  communicate with their patient(s). People with serious and chronic health conditions, especially those who require more medical care and treatments, like myself,  know well that  the Healthcare System needs improvements that would benefit th...
