ME-as I go through this zany, marvelous, difficult experience called: "LIFE"!

 I would like to praise God  for all the people He's put into my life.  I have my family to love and be loved.  I have friends to share love.  I have a hospital to go to when I am sick. I have the care of qualified, compassionate doctors curing me of diseases invading my body.  I have the care of nurses, cna'a's, respiratory therapists helping me to breathe better.  I have delicious food on a tray made by the food service in the hospital.  I have spiritual support from the Pastoral Care Dept at the hospital. I have all these people helping me to be as comfortable as I can be.. I have all this and more. God is so good to me.  Praise God.

All these nights , they've shown  to this long table where she now lays And bit by bit Seeing through the x-rays They left the anesthesia out of the procedure ad her the supply of novocaine is down tonight She's in there and trying to awake But she's sinking more and more into the table and out of view Then A door opens

   Yesterday, on the stairs I met a man who wasn't there He wasn't there again today Gee, I wish he'd go away!

Living with chronic physical medical conditions, I am in the hospital a lot. I am a patient in the hospital now. I can think I'm stuck in a room with very few visitors and lousy television. I can concentrate on how lonely, homesick and scared I feel. That's not Me!      I use this opportunity to connect with some wonderful, amazing people who are helping me to get and feel better. I can talk with and get to know these really great people who have a busy, stressful job helping me.     This job is where they use not only their knowledge, expertise and experience but they were blessed with patience, endurance, strength and all other traits in them necessary to carry out their jobs helping me and others feel better. What amazing is they love their jobs (well, most of the time).      I have given a gift of letting people into my life and  and giving them all a part of me. I also take a part of each and every one of these real, amazing people an...

I'm still in the hospital . It's hard being in the hospital, especially when you have to come in the hospital a lot. It's familiar but gets harder to cope each time. I thank God for the compassionate, kind, very qualified, super people caring for me. I thank God, also for all the many people supporting me through this. I'd be so grateful if people would give me ideas of things to do to relieve a condition called 'boredom' I don't care for for tv much. Any ideas anyone?

It's early morning and I am still a patient in the hospital. A lot of things are scary here. Not having the control of your lie especially not being able to goo off the floor is scary. My freedom of going where I want when I want is put on hold for awhile. The biggie is not knowing what is going on in your body. Even bigger, the doctors don't know for sure. I know people are here to help me get back to my life. I just wish they would view me and my ides of what's going on with me more seriously. I wish they would realize that their patient knows their (my) body a lot better than they do.Doctors know illnesses, medications, treatments,etc...I know me-my boy-my mind . I know what works and doesn't work. Don't get me wrong, I am compilable  to treatment but, I still want (demand) to be the most vital part of the treatment team.!                                             ...
