Welcome back!

After what we have been going through with my husband’s mom, I realize that there are some important things that need to be looked after.

Good Medicare part D plans should have allowances for special conditions, or for special care that might be needed.

I never realized just how much could be involved with hospice care, or what some call final care for an elderly person. Even if you think that you are prepared, you will be surprised by what comes up in conversation with the health care people.

It has been a week.

Some has changed. Mom is still located at the hospice, but they no longer think she fits the profile in order to stay.

She will be with us a little longer. I just have no idea just where she will be staying. I know that she wants to be at home, but that is not possible right now, or even later. I don’t know what will happen. I am glad that she is better.

As I sit here an type on my keyboard…it hurts.

I realize that she will not be here too much longer. They only put you into hospice when the hospital is unable to improve you condition any more. At time when I think about it it feels as if band saw blades are cutting me in half.

I try not to let my feelings show too much as I do not want to make my husband hurt more than he already is. At times I find myself crying and trying to be silent. I know that she will not feel any pain in Heaven. I still will miss her greatly.

There were times that she could be imprudent or difficult. She is after all a human being. We have for a long time proved that humans can be weird. Animals are actually not as weird as we are. I guess that all of this is just part of the human condition after all.

We have checked out the hospice care that mom is getting and she is happy and not in pain.

At first we were worried about the cost, but Medicare is covering it completely. I would call that nice. She says that she is ready and at peace with what is happening. She is ppaying an incredible s price for not taking care of her diabetes.

It makes me want to be more careful with my blood sugar since I am not into pain and suffering. This type of thing makes you think.

My husband and I are finding out some things about hospice care.

His mother is dying because of her kidney and heart troubles. She knows Jesus, so we have peace about where she will go. We are learning how to let go of her, though. She has been living with a lot of pain and is at peace with her future passing.

I am not sure how many people can say that. I just know that I will miss her. She is my MOTHER-IN-LAW, but she has love and will be missed.

Right now I am glad that I do not have to apply for any personal loans. My brain is not functioning the way that it should since I am having trouble concentrating.

Driving can also be a nightmare. My left eye has taken to wandering and i have to concentrate extra hard to keep it in proper alignment. I have tried to get my husband to drive, but he has been taking Vicaden for some seriour pain that he has right now.

It sounds as if we are a fine mess. That’s life.

Yes, I did use those words for the title.

This trouble that i have been having with shingles has been driving me to lala land. My face tingles, itches, aches, and is numb all at the same time.

I wish that it would make up its mind and pick one thing over all of them. UG

I still have the numbness in my face. CRAZY

I wish that it would all vanish as quickly as our money vanishes these days.

Spring is here, Summer is coming, and those with acne are getting the medicine that they want to get rid of that stuff.

I am overweight, the title of my blog tells it all. I have never had any trouble with acne however. I have had trouble with the blisters from shingles, but that is not the same thing.

I remember high school. I remember kids who had trouble with acne. I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy.

I went to the doctor today.

I have shingles again. My face feels as if it was wiped with Orajel. Earlier, I had a headache in my face.

Since I didn’t get to the doctor within the first 48 hours, he can’t prescribe any meds to stop it. I just have to let it run its full course.

My previous run-in with shingles ended with me in the hospital.

I am NOT a happy camper.
