UGH!

well if it isn't one thing it's another.  first...WHY can't they just take fluid from my leg and see EXACTLY what kind of bacteria is in there???????  the infection is now on the top of my foot!!!  i see my primary care doctor today and probably get an antibiotic change AGAIN.  I'm less dehydrated today thank god but i'm still going to the bathroom a LOT.  they have me on a generic version of Lomotil which should dry up all the liquid in my intestines and almost completely stop the bowel process so i have a chance to actually absorb things.

here's the other thing.  I talked to my mom this morning and my parents have been in the hospital all night with my grandfather.  This man has had several strokes....several bouts of pneumonia because of the strokes and is pumped full of coumadin.  Well his colon perforated last night which caused his kidneys to shut down.  They couldn't operate on him until this morning because they needed to get the coumadin out of him.  so he got a colostomy and will have the bag for the next 3 to 6 months.  i have a feeling this is his last trip to the hospital.  the next 48 hours are critical because he could have another stroke, get pneumonia or who knows what else.  i'm beside myself.

2009 SUCKS ASS right now.


Thank you all so much for your continued thoughts and prayers.  i love you all!

{{{hugs}}} I'm so sorry you're going through all this right now.  You and your family are in my prayers for FAST HEALING!
