As for this week!

Seems all my notes are quick these days, it’s all I can manage for the moment…

On the bright side, I was released from hospital yesterday early evening. The report I received from the doctor regarding the CT scan was that the tumor had not grown (which is good news, obviously) although they didn’t have any further helpful info. They are guessing that the reason for the swelling is that they took me off the anti-inflammatory too soon. Of course there’s good reasons for that too… and bla bla bla.

In hospital they were able to try out a few new dosages of pain medication. Good for the pain management but not so good for life management. “What does she mean by that?” you might ask. These meds are at such high doses that I have body twitches and my hands shake and twitch (imagine typing on a keyboard when your hand is twitching all over the place). My brain is foggy at best and apparently I watched an entire 1 hour TV show last night that I don’t remember. Oh and I have the most interesting activity in my imagination let me tell you! I suppose more correctly they would be hallucinations. Anyway, you get the idea.

I don’t really know what else to tell you, I guess you’re already seeing that it’s been a pretty rough week. I’ve been working away at some of my writing that I was looking forward to posting here although nothing ever got finished.

So then, there you have it. It’s the best I can do with scramble for brains but at least it’s something. Oh…here’s another bright side…I got to enjoy the hospital’s air conditioning during this intensely hot week!

Here’s to better luck next week!
