forget the wine to go with my whine...let's break out the hard liquor.

I just canceled my appointment with the shoulder doctor. My dad had told me to take a taxi to the appointment. Well, since it's the day before Turkey Day, all the taxis are busy going to the airport. It was going to take too long to get the taxi here, since my dad only gave me the 30 min warning that he wasn't going to take me. Plus, he took off with the rollator walker I was going to use. (it's in the back of my car. He took my car to go back up to the hospital) Oh, and my dad didn't leave me any cash for the taxi. (I could have used a credit card, but I would have wanted to tip cash)

At this rate, my shoulder will be healed by the time I get an orthopedist to look at it. It hurts so bad right now, I'm going to take a bunch of tylenol and go back to bed. I only had 2hrs of sleep because the furnace repairperson showed up at 8am, I probably didn't fall asleep until 6am because my arm hurt so bleepity bleep much. I feel sick from not sleeping. Probably another good reason to cancel my appointment today.

hope the tylenol helps with the pain. It didn't last week. I ended up calling my regular doctor and did one of those mini dosepacks of steroids for the pain. Narcotics make me throw up.


So far at the moment, my mom is fine. She's still waiting for them to go looking around inside her today for whatever was causing the problem. So, still no idea what's caused that internal bleeding. I have a few ideas, but none of them are good.
