Dear Friends and Family, Good and Blessed Morning! I pray all of you are well, safe, healthy, happy with feel loved. Me, I have been in the hospital since Saturday morning. I have pneumona, an aggressive type if pneumonia. I have been prescribed IV antibiotics, oral antibiotics, other treatments, medications and all the other marvels of the medical world. Today is Thursday and I have been here, in the hospital since Saturday. Pain is as an exclusive addition to being diagnosed with pneumonia, especially severe headaches! I have been working fighting this pneumonia for 5 days, plagued with enduring the worse headaches anyone could ever, ever have! Who would have ever, ever thought that caffeine withdrawal had a huge stakes to play in my pneumonia, my severe headaches, my treatments and care in the hospital, my health and my life? Who would have ever thought? From my hospital bed, In my hospital room, At the hospital, Evelyn  (Pinto)

  I have been dreaming of living in a better world. The world I know is vastly different than this broken, torn, cut and lonely world I have been taken up residence in these 60 odd years of my life I now grasp how this world I live in can be a reflection of who I am and not the person I need to be I can now see how a better world begins with me I feel invisible, a lot these days I sense how unseen I am even when with most people Please, please, please see me If you can’t see me Take the time Look again Look longer Look deeper Look up Look down Look sideways Look inside out Look into my eyes Sit with me Search my soul Gaze through my heart, my broken heart Comprehend how this tiny muscle inside in me, my heart, yearns to be stitched together Perceive how this scattered, shattered, cut, dumped, devastated and distressed existence yearns to be reached and needs to be whole Recognize that necessity to be held, really, really, really tight H...

Dear Friends,  I am home! I was discharged late Wednesday and was home by early Wednesday evening. I am overjoyed to be home! I was in the hospital for 6 days. I wish I could tell you that the hospital was a good and helpful experience. My friends, it was a negative, traumatizing experience! Though, I always am in involved in my own treatment and care  and have expressed this multiple times on several occasions to every one of the people on my medical team, I was denied that opportunity that request, opportunity and right! Instead, I was treated like a bag of bones! The more I pushed for involvement in my treatment care and life and adequate and appropriate care, the worse I was treated! I understand that there is a staff shortage. I understand that the doctors and nurses have many patients, perhaps too many patients! I understand that the doctors, nurses and other necessary medical personnel are under a lot of stress. I can empathize with all of this and with them as well. Wh...
