Sunday, March 22, 2009

Weekends are always very hard for me. I really have to work hard to keep myself going. Now it is even worse. Part of it is that I just want to move forward and get all of this over with so I can live a healthy life. This waiting is so hard.

I am so blessed by all of you who love me and are walking this journey with me, but I really miss Chuck. I miss the hugs, the silly smile, the way he pretended not to listen to me, even as he heard every word. Yesterday Jenn, Nate, Amanda and I went to the cemetery to put out the daffodils. Nate decided I am going to live another 49 years, from his mouth to God's ears.

Jenn helped me change dressings and wound is getting smaller. MaryAnne, my friend, neighbor and sister-in-Christ is sick so she is unable to help with the dressing. Praying she is better today.

PRAYER NEEDS:
Ambian did not make any difference in sleep. I took it at 9ish, was up 11,1, 3-6. I am tired but do not sleep during the day. I do try to rest in the afternoon from 1-3.

Nausea still hanging on. I know it is nerves and hope that when Lexapro kicks in (10 days) that this will get better. I am eating small meals.

Healing for incision.

Second opinion appointment.

Family and their individual way in which they are handling all of this. May GOD'S PEACE, STRENGTH AND JOY FILL EACH OF US.

  1. Dear Colette,
    We will continue to pray for physical healing, encouragement, wisdom and comfort. I hope this time of feeling so very miserable will pass soon.
    Blessings in Christ,
    Linda

  2. Good news on the wound healing, Colette!
    I don't want that to slow things down for you.
    Maybe your dr. can recommend a different sleeping aid. I'm sure you've already requested this.
    You brought a smile to me with your description of Chuck!
    XO Anne
