Just back from the ER.......again.
Two years ago I was in and out of the ER and hospital quite frequently. Chest pains and other problems running the gambit from hernias to my knee. It seemed that I could not stay out of the hospital for more than two months at a time. Up to last week I had not been in the ER this whole year. Now in a one week period I have been there twice.
It scared me. Not because of anything major wrong, but knowing that in the future, nearer than I want it to be, I may be there more and more. As my disease progresses I know my journeys there will be more frequent and my stays longer each time. That's what scares me. Knowing that I will be there and not around people that I love and not where I want to be. Oh, I know the people that I love and that love me will be there for me, but it is not the same thing. By a long shot.
On another note, I want to say a word of praise for the people that take care of me here. They, with very few exceptions, are very professional and very caring. I have never been taken care of with such concern for my comfort and well being as I am here. I will miss this, and them more and more as time goes by. I wish I could take them all with me when I move. Realistically, I know I can't. Thank you Nurses and Doctors and all support personnel! Y'all Rock!
Until next time..........................
