Hiya hun, yeah sorry not been about. Been waiting for IV's. Should be starting them tomorrow woohhoooo!!!!
It's odd to want IV's, but I'm just so exhausted, anythings better than nothing right now.
Well anyway, should be around more next week, as I won't have to use any energy doing treatment, and got wireless internet in hospital, yay!!!

How are you doing sweetie? Hope you're ok!

I'm happy for you that you are getting IVs. I know how it is to not have any energy but I have never had to use IVs (knock on wood). Everything is good in my little world. Everything could be much worse, so I shouldnt complain.My Grandma is visiting from across the United States. She lives in Maryland and I live in Washington State. She is out here for one month, and in that time her and my Dad are going to take a three week road trip up to Alaska because that is the only state she has never been to. Two days into her vacation she fell in my Sisters driveway and broke her knee cap in three place. She had to get surgery and now the whole road trip is cancelled. She can't really do anything for herself. So I have been busy taking care of her. Bless her heart because no one expected this and she is such a tropper. I hope everyone will keep her in their prayers for a speedy recovery and no complications. Thank you.

Eugh, STILL not in hospital yet. They still have no beds!!! Started home IV's this afternoon. I'm really not impressed I don't do home IV's anymore, as I don't feel I can cope with tem, but for now I have no other option. I really want to be well and happy for my hols at end of month. My lung function has dropped now again, my first test was 75%, second 83% must have cleared something on first blow lol Was wheezing and spluttering throughout. It's quite a drop from 93% for me, it's not very often I ever lose any lung function. Explains why it's feeling so hard to breathe right now anyway.

Physio's had a go at me, for not doing my balance excercises this week. They're really missing the point about being in pain and breathless. Ah well, I guess I can ignore them for now, and face them when I'm feeling a little better.

So sorry to hear about your Grandma. Give her a cake from me - cakes much better than grapes when you're not your best. Hope she's up and pottering about soon, my prayers are sent chuck.

All the best!
