In Remembrance
|
Almost 3 months in the hospital and 2 rehab facilities later and I can finally transfer safely?, from bed to scooter to toilet to wherever??? I will have to make a few adjustments to make it more safe, but am HOME!!!
To make a verrrry loooong story short. My A/C went out as I was napping, on May 31st, and I woke up to scorching heat!! Thought I could handle going to pot and back before calling for help....WRONG!!!!! Fell in bathrm and could not get up, forgot cell and so crawled on floor, inching along, for 24 hrs on floor till DD found me Sun. afternoon and rushed me to hospital intensive care. That was the beginning of my long, painfully horrible and lonely journey to my near wellness of today. I now have a hospital bed in my livingrm, instead of a couch, so not quite as free as I was, but happy to be here. DD Julie and DSS John were and continue to be my saviors and guardian angels. I'm lounging in my little, adjustable bed...not deluxe but the best for which Medicare will pay less my 240.00 co-pay. It's not ideal but, at my age, it's okie dokie. More later, if you really want to hear it. Thank you all for missing me, your calls, your care, your prayers and your love. Agate/Joan was lucky enough to reach my DD Julie and I hope she has told you all, the limited info that we had, at the time. I was unable to communicate with anyone, completely coherently for awhile. I didn't have my cell or computer, with me, at all and Julie's time was limited. I thought about you all every day and missed you terribly.
