Just wanted to say hey

It has been a while since I've posted and I thought I would say hi and give you a brief update.  I'm still fighting a bug that seems to be originating somewhere by my stomach.  They are just giving me lots of IV antibiotics trying to kill it.  It has been a very frustrating time for me but I'm hoping I'm on the mend.  I go in for a CT tomorrow to see what it shows and then Tues. to the doctor to find out if I can finally get off of the antibiotics.

My husband was finally able to go back to work this week which is wonderful, except he is now on the road and I think that is partially why I'm depressed.  I'm having a terrible time eating and drinking and that worries me.  I do the best I can but it is really hard sometimes.  I try not to worry too much but sometimes it's easier than others.  I really enjoy reading the posts.  You guys have some funny subjects which make me laugh.

If we can get a car running this week, Melissa and I are going to Edmond on Thursday and I am going to try to stay for support so hopefully we'll see some of you.

ello and welcome back,  I am sorry that you are still having issues and I hope that it is all straightened out soon.

Hello, it is nice to hear an update. I have been wondering how you were doing. I'm sorry you're still having trouble. You have sure traveled a tough road. Hopefully they will figure things out soon and your life can get back to normal.

Kim your new picture look amazing!!!  I really hope you can get the car running so you can check in with weght wise.  If you can kick this bug then maybe eating and drinking will be easier.  Hang in there!  Congrats on hubby getting back to work even if it is not the ideal situation, at least you have some income coming in.  I wish I could go this Thursday to see you but my son has basketball practice.

I will 100% be there on Thursday night!  It has been too long since I've been to support group so I hope to see you there. 

I'm sorry you're having a rough patch.  Here's hoping it's fast and easy this time!  How is your daughter?  I hope she is doing well and losing all the weight she would like to lose!

Good to have you back around.

Are you perhaps a little gun shy about eating?  It may take you awhile to get back into the swing of chewing, etc.  Bet you never thought that would be a problem?

Being ill can be depressing in and of itself.  Healing takes time mentally as well as physically.  I'm glad you have your daughter nearby for support-and you have us too.  Don't be a stranger. 

Kim, Someone was just asking about you today. Sorry you are still having a difficult time. Stop off at the nurses station Thursday and say hi. Maybe I will see you then. Take care, Rita

 Hi, Kim.
How nice to hear from you. I'm sorry you're still battling these various illnesses. Of course, you're feeling blue! Who wouldn't? I'm praying for you, friend.
We had a good support group meeting Saturday. We talked about the importance of good vitamins and supplements (among other things), and next month we're going to talk about emotional eating (something I think most of us can relate to but must get a handle on). We'd love to see you and Melissa come. Until then, I do hope you can make it to the Edmond group. I enjoyed the time I went.
Take care.
Blessings,
Mary

Hi Kim!
It was nice to get an update on you!  I'm sorry you are sick.  I was hoping to hear you were up and running around doing all the things you want to do!  I will keep you in my prayers.  Take care of yourself.  You DH will be home before you know it!  Stick around and we'll keep you cheered!
Hugs
Kim J.

Kim...i have a theory...   it may not be very scientific, but hey, it's just a random thought and stuff... I think i know why all of this stuff is happening to you....  You don't party enough....yep i said it...

Think about it.... i want you to think of two distinct groups of people....  you vs. rock stars

You- Take good care of yourself  

Rockstars- live on vodka and second hand smoke
----

You- Sleep in your own bed night, after night, after night

Rockstars- sleep in other people's beds, night after, night after night..( which could be fun)
____

You--- go to the doctor when you don't feel good

Rockstars--- go to Dr. Feelgood to "feel good"
___

So I'm just thinking you don't party enough...so hey when i come back I'll buy you your first shot....we'll live like rockstars and live forever like keith richards...I know that he's really dead, but but tell Keith that since he's still walking around...lol
