Peggy
Quote:
Here is to never setting the bridge on fire to those you once loved, because in the end, you never know what may cause you to travel that road again. Peg is home, on 4 liters of oxygen, 4 lasix and 4 potassium, with additional 4 of each at night time as needed for fluid in her lungs and legs, etc. I will never smirk at a LIFE ALERT commercial, or I've fallen and can;t get up commercial again. When she did not answer the phone when I called her back, I drove like a demon across the County. She had the portable phone in bed and ....it was dead. I lost one of my 9 lives. She was almost dead before she called me. Hospital nurse said to me "she didn't realize she was so sick".Peg interrupted , "oh yes I knew, but the doctors would not listen". I knew she was better. Peg told me she has gotten the run around from a Pulmonary Specialist and Cardiaologist for 4 months. They never put her on oxygen..she neeeeeeded it desperately, and they shuffled her from one to the other. I am now taking her to theseeeeeee doctor's next week, and am going to see what others are in her HMO. &^%$$#$%^^*** is all I want to say about that. She is pink again, home and now knows my middle name and what kind of car she owns... Phew. with Freedom Kitty who she said I spoiled in 4 days..hmmmph She has asked me to be medical proxy and power of attorney, so I can make Those decisions and talk to the doctor's~~Then deal with her kidz....all out of state.

I have only been in here to read and haven't really posted anything in quite some time.
Today I come here with a heavy heart and tears for one of my brothers. First let me explain, I have a brother, who I've always called my special needs brother. His first 13 years of life, he had 13 operations. He has also survived 3 heart attacks. He has lived with a Urostomy for as long as I can remember. Doc said if he lived to 21, he'd be lucky and he'd never be able to have kids. Well, he's 46 and has 3 beautiful girls that came along late in his life as they are all under 8. Anyhow, a couple of hours ago as I traveled back home from a vet visit that takes 3 hours now, he called me. He's been in the hospital a few days for the second time this month. Today he was diagnosed with Metastatic Colon Cancer (he'll have another operation for a Colostomy) I didn't know what it was until I looked it up. What I found out, was that the survival rate is not good even with treatment. I have 5 brothers and only 2 I really love and care about. My brother Peter happens to be one of them. All I can do is pray that he gets better instead of worse. I have no idea what stage his cancer is even in. Never once in all his years on this earth, did I ever think about him not being a part of my life or my family. Please pray with me for Peter. That his pain and suffering will be as gentle as possible on him. Also, for his upcoming operation to go smoothly.

Love changes but remains
Today I go a Charger's game. Today she is on oxygen and lasix. Today, tell someone you love them.
She is so much better. I spent the day looking at pictures of our family, our relationship of 20 years, our first car, our first home. She laughed at my hippy look and hair. I laughed about her first Thanksgiving turkey that was raw when I cut it. We went out for dinner that year. We reminisced and smiled about a once beautiful love, that brought us together. In the twilight of the day, Peg made me vanilla tea, and we dunked spice cookies. We didn't speak of our breakup, or where we went wrong. She stroked my leg and I her hair. We talked about the crypts we bought so long ago, and laughed when the kids said that was weird. Last night, we both decided a ceremony at sea is where we both want to be. We talked about her last wishes, looked at the Living Will and Advanced Directive.. Last night we couldn't fill it out. Maybe on my next visit, maybe Nancy, RN, the Home Health Nurse that will visit her today can do it. We just couldn't. Maybe never. I drove home with tears, and an ache deep inside . She may get better, but never well. |

candles lit: Tommi, I sit here with tears running down my face after reading your last heartfelt candle posting. I feel the love the two of you had and still do, only in a different way than before. I praise you to the Universe and far and wide for being the person that you are. A love like that is so very rare. I know you two moved on, but you are a very special individual and so is she. Just because people separate does not mean the love they shared was not real, did not exist and cannot exist in another form. You two are proof. Universe, send healing, light, love and protection to Peggy and Tommi. Send miraculous healing whether it be literal or figurative. I ask that You let them know they are loved and safe. candles lit: clay's continued healing. My daughter. For any and all who just need some love and kindness. For any and every request, reason, need or design. Just because. Namaste!

For my friends Clay and Wolfy, may the heavens bring you healing and peace. To Tommi, may those same heavens bring you strength.
For myself, and my family. To the son who is incarcerated, I pray for strength for him. To my daughter who struggles with addictions and all of the humiliation and life chaos that addictions foster, I pray fervently for the willingness to change. To my grandson who has begun cutting as a way of trying to control SOMETHING in that chaotic life, I pray for help . May the Higher Power who has come back into my life guide me and give me strength, direct my thoughts, my words, and my actions. (and thank you to the angel who started this thread, and all who have shared from their hearts to keep it going. I am so grateful that this is here) |
