HI All,
Well I had my doctor appointment this past friday, got the results of my MRI which of course were not what I was expecting. He told me there are several cysts on my ovary's which need looked @ by an OB doc which I cant do right now. They also noticed my tailbone had been broken previously which I of course knew but the doctor said other than it bein crocked & the cysts nothing else showed so its a little bit frustrating not knowing whats causeing all the extra pain but on the other hand it explained some other problems I've been having. Then to top off my weekend a close friend's Nana who I've known since I was 14yrs old passed away on saturday night, she was a wonderful women & as much as I wanted to be w/my friend I couldnt because my face started swelling up again from yet another tooth infection & I feel like I've been hit by a semi truck then either tonight or tomorrow night the other sister will be comming to stay w/us which I'm NOT looking forward to cuz it's gonna be so much drama we already dont get along on a normal day but she's an addict but she's been "away" since dec. so not sure how this is gonna go since it's not gone well in the past. I dont know what to do anymore between all the normal pain I'm in now my face swelling up from another infection, services for Nana this week & the other sister comming I just want to scream. I hope u all are having a better week than me. to all & thinking of all of u always

It just keeps on coming for you. Just take deep breaths, breathe through your nostrils and count to ten every time the other sister talks to you, smile and act vague as if you are on new medication that's made you a little hazy and if possible give a little giggle every now and then. Do not let her get under your skin, with the tooth, nana and your pain levels you have more than enough on your plate without having to deal with her. We are here for you so feel free to vent.

Sometimes it rains, sometimes it pours, and sometimes it pours buckets. We all have weeks from hell occasionally. I recently did a root canal, "oh you might have cancer" thing two days after that, and got a call from my brother two days later that two of my cousins kids had died in an accident thing. Although no annoying family visited so maybe it wasn't quite so bad as your week.

I try to remember that sometimes life just kicks us while we're down but the good times seem to outnumber the bad. And because I can't help a good joke. If you think you just can't take another moment with your sister, remind yourself that it's only murder if they find the body. Maybe a good joke will help you through another hour.

Bet you wish there was an escape hatch to jump into huh?
It's so hard in life when hard things happen all at once.
Try to be polilte & overall take care of yourself!

sounds like a rough one..So sorry for that..i have had the cysts there too.once the put me on birth control and they went away..they can be painful.I get them often..lately they just wait to see what they do..so hopefully it will be okay for you.I will be thinking about you and praying..sorry I have not been here for you..its been a terrible week here too.I am sorry for your loss it cannot be easy..then to top it all off the tooth is a tuff one..hope you get better soon..best wishes

That's a boatload Heidi. I'm sorry for the loss of your friend and that so much has hit you at once. As all say, take your time to breathe, vent, cry or scream, giggle, find a good distraction or whatever you can to lighten the load...

Above all, first and foremost take care of you.

Heidi - I read this today "don't think you must attend every argument you are invited to". Think about it. You are in control. You decide where to spend your precious energy.

you are so right..thats a good one

I'm sorry for the loss of your treasured friend.
