Glow up!

I thought, instead of putting up some picture of me in a hospital or me with a feeding tube (!!), I’d put up a pic of me today with actual makeup on. As much as I’m still trying to process my hospital experience and living with this chronic pancreatitis thing, I’m also not going to …

Yaaaaaaayyyyy!

I’m getting out of the hospital very soon! Within just a couple of hours! I’m so happy! I can’t wait! I feel like a new person. I have been feeling terrible for so long, and I finally feel better! Even one of the nurses who took care of me on this floor on an earlier …

I pray it’s today!!

I miss being home. I miss my family and friends. I miss my cat. I miss my car. Seriously. I have spent most of this past month in this hospital. It’s kind of annoying. I have conquered the nausea and abdominal pain and am ready to go home, but now they have me on a …

Following up…

Following up on my convoluted day yesterday, I am now sitting in the hospital myself at 4:52 in sort of admissions purgatory. I can’t stop the constant need to vomit. It’s super difficult to handle and I still have other people I’d like to be helping. Oh well. God will redeem this just like he …

Lunchtime

I went to the dentist this morning and it wasn’t bad. I actually love my dentist, I’m just afraid of going. I am struggling with serious nausea today and I feel pretty wretched. I am, (ironically), out to lunch with my friend who took me to the dentist. I ordered a side salad and a …

Visitor today!

I don’t know why my eyes look weird. I’m gonna have a visitor today!!!! I’m so excited! It’s been two days since anyone came up and saw me and I’ve been really lonely and bored. My friend is coming up to see me. I’m so grateful. I know it’s hard for people to take time …

Not much sleep…

I think I got like four hours of sleep in total last night. I slept for a couple hours around nine and then for a couple more this morning before the lab came in to draw blood. I am now fully awake and ready for my day to day to start! I do feel slightly …

Still here…

It’s Saturday and I’m still in the hospital. I am still on a clear liquid diet as well. Haven’t really progressed very far. I did get into the shower today though because it had been a week, so yay for that. My hospital room has two windows so it’s very nice and I am blessed …

Waiting at the salon…

I had to wait at the salon for my friend who does my hair. She had some issues with her kid which is totally understandable so I was happy to wait. I got my hair trimmed and it’s a little shorter than I thought it would be, but still very long. I am happy with …

Okay, so call me weird

I’m actually looking forward to my very busy day. I know that vacuuming the church is an act of service that I’m blessed to be healthy enough to be able to complete. I wasn’t last week. Thank God I am this week. I am so excited to see my friend for lunch. Then I have …
