My malnutrition and my life this past month...seeking support
Oh honey, I'm so sorry you've slid back down that crappy hill ****hugs****. And my great sympathies on your many trials and losses. What a rough patch :-(.
Listen to mama hen EN: Quit bull****ting yourself about building yourself up in a few days. You will almost assuredly need TPN again. Get your butt to the doc and get it rolling. You are well into the phase of not thinking straight. Just GO, ASAP.
Pressure sores, scatter brain, weakness, thrush, swelling.....I wouldn't even wait that long. I'd go admit myself immediately.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your father, and all the other illnesses and accidents you and your family are going through.
Keep working esp hard on the protein. If that tanks, everything else will go with it, and until it improves, nothing else will. Glad your doc is involved. If you need special protein supplements, or even a short course of TPN, get it!

Holy crap. I'm so glad your girls are ok! Now it's time to take care of yourself! I can't blame you for being out of it; when I lost my mom life sucked. When I lost my dad shortly thereafter I swear I was in a fog for a while... I don't even remember a lot of that period of my life. It is just horrific.
I'm so sorry you've gone though so many traumatic experiences in such a short time. My condolences on the loss of your father. Hope your mom's health has been improving. Thank God your daughters survived that accident. You've been dealing with all this in a state of numb-survival mode. Please take care of yourself before you end up very ill.
Sending you healing thoughts, get well wishes and comforting hugs.
