A BIRTHDAY IN THE HOSPITAL 10-26-2022

-




Dear Friends and Family, it’s Wednesday, October 26th and it is my Birthday.

I am an inpatient in the hospital that I go for my medical care and I am frightened.

My friends, I have been having breathing difficulties for some time.

The days previous to this hospital were troubling with difficulties breathing, chest tightness that was severely painful, excessive sweating and complete, severe fatigue.

Monday’s symptoms frightened me beyond limits.

My tee shirt and pajama bottoms were drenched in sweat.

Suffering with severe and painful tightness in my chest, I was struggling to breathe.

I wanted to avoid the hospital at all costs but, I was too scared not to go.

I, by ambulance, was quickly and safely escorted to the hospital I go for my medical care.

My blood pressure was super high and I normally do not have high blood pressure.

My oxygen saturations were very low as well.

One of the problems told to me by the doctors was I have been having a  COPD exacerbation.

Other symptomology is being closely looked at and tested.

As I have said it is my Birthday today!

With troubling difficulties breathing, painful tightness in my chest, constant fatigue and other worrisome symptoms, it’s going to be a wonderful day, despite all these goings ons!

Today, on my Birthday, I am going to celebrate Life!

I thank God for my Friends, my Family, my Church Family, the Family where I reside,  my Hospital Family and all those people who have impacted my life in large and small  ways!

I thank God and praise God for Life!

Thank you, all of you, for your support, your prayers, your love, your compassion and your generosity, your time and your sacrifices!

I am grateful and blessed by all of you!

As I walk along the path of my Life, I tightly clutch the Hands of Jesus.

I am strengthen in my own weakness as Jesus helps me, holds me and guides me through this navigation of a turn in my life on my journey.

Though I am sick, in pain, weak, fatigued, I am suffering with other serious problems that make the basics of breathing much more difficult.

I have a Peace, a Gog given peace that guides me, comforts me and loves me.

I’m okay because God’s got me, and holds me.

As I am wrapped in God’s Mighty Arms, I am safe, secure and loved!

Please, my friends and family, please Celebrate Life with me.

Love, prayers and a zillion hugs,

Evelyn Pinto

Serious Problems That Circulate Among The Medical Profession There have been countless advances in the medical field. These fascinating evolutions have saved my life and the lives of countless others! 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.

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...
