My dad is coming!

I love my dad. He lives in Macon, Georgia and I live in Michigan so I don’t get to see him and my stepmom very often. It’s hard for me to travel, especially since I have been fighting with this chronic relapsing pancreatitis. I can’t take the risk of being out of state and getting …

Two hours in…

I am two hours into Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour on Disney Plus. I should definitely be sleeping. There is an hour plus to go. It’s pretty good though. I am a poor swiftie so this is going to be how I see this concert… I really should be sleeping, but I just can’t. It’s a …

Thrown off schedule

I can tell that I’m tired because my body is exhausted. My brain is not on board with sleeping, however. I’m worried about the thunderstorms we are supposed to get in the middle of the night. I’m also all messed up from being in the hospital. I just kind of slept on and off all …

Like the moon

How important is spirituality in your life? Spirituality is very important to me. I am a Christian and I try to live my life in a way that reflects that. Mostly anyway, because I’m a sinner just like everyone else, but I try. The practicing of my faith however, waxes and wanes like the moon. …

Free Bird!

I am getting sprung today!!!! I’m so happy! I have been waiting for almost two weeks to get out of here. Thank God. My dad and stepmom come in two days and I didn’t want them to have to see me in the hospital. I am weak like a fawn but I’ll get stronger. Yay!

Maybe I will escape soon!

I have been here so many days now I have lost count. Well over two weeks if you don’t count the one day I was out of the hospital. So yeah. I am trying to eat real food now instead of just cream of wheat, but they have me on a “mechanical soft” diet which …

I was naughty today.

I had a wheat bagel with a tiny bit of cream cheese on it for lunch. I had cream of wheat of course as well because it just wouldn’t be a meal in the hospital with pancreatitis without cream of wheat… Anyway, I’m not supposed to be eating fat but I couldn’t help it. Honestly. …

Time is on my side, yes it is 🎶

How do you waste the most time every day? I wish I had something awesome to say here like I skydive or even read books about skydiving. I don’t. I am content to scroll through my facebook feed and chat with my friends to catch up because I so rarely get to see them, (since …

Me and my bicycle

Which food, when you eat it, instantly transports you to childhood? When I was little we lived out “in the county.” Meaning our house was surrounded by either cornfields or swamp. Mostly cornfields. A mile away, up on the juncture of the bigger road that crossed ours and the even bigger road that crossed that …

I’m still here

It’s been something like eight days so far this time. I was only home one day in between the last stay which was five days. Sooo… essentially I’ve been in the hospital for two weeks. Yay! I am trying not to let it get to me, but I keep finding myself fighting back tears. I …
