Fallen Fighter ( sickle cell)

I just receive news you have pass away
I know we havent talk are seen each other in awhile
I use to hear how good you were doing
My heart aches
You have left a beautiful child and hubby behind
My heart is aching
You fought a good fight
I pray you rest in paradise
Only God knows our pain
Im thinking why, but i know he needed
You more.
Heartbreaking news
Hits so close to home
My tears want let me stay strong,

Day 1-3, Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

Hey Everyone and welcome go my world!  I have been in hospital since Monday. I actually got sick Sunday night around 11, and knew I was in for rough night! My blood count was.7.9 when I arrived, now it 6.9! I know I mention in one of my post I had a cold, idk if that help kick in my sickle cell. Sounds like I I’m coughing up my lungs. Sighs! I have, some awesome nurses so that’s a plus in my book.  Be sweet if I could get some sleep! But my pain is making it difficult for me right now! Actually spoke to my doctor before he went on vocation, he was the E.R when I came in, so he fill the doctor in that’s stepping in for him about my situation. I still can’t receive transfusions right now. Another story for another time. If anything else comes up, ill make sure keep y’all updated! God Bless 🙂

Living With Sickle Cell Anemia…

thumbnailSCDHey Everyone, And welcome to my world, basically a update from my two checkups. Not good updates, but hey I’m still alive, so I can’t complain. Right now Im waiting on phone call, on my blood work, lets just say I wasn’t happy about gettting stuck by a person who didnt know what they was doing. Bad enough my doctor was on vocation and I had lady who didnt know what she was talking about, so ummm she didnt order all the blood work I need’d. So I got a feeling when I do get a call, Its not going to be a good one. Makes you wonder why give me a appointment when the person I need to see when they on vocation? I don’t believe she like my attitude much, if you come in talking like you know everything I had while I was in hospital.. You already on my bad side. Sighs…

 

Primary doctor update didn’t go so well either, I had to wait awhile just to be seen… Add’d more poison to the list, for me to take. Since everything I eat, makes me feel uneasy, now I have ear infection on top of that. Im debating on taking more meds. My headaches have gotten worser, and trying to go to school with them is no joke. I dont want my meds up, because I would sleep all day,and I do enough sleeping as it is due to my health. So I believe I didn’t forget anything, if so I share in another post when I have another doctor appointment next month.

Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

thumbnailSCDHello Everyone,  I’m finally home, been home for a few days now, spending time with my love one’s. Getting much rest as possible. I must admit I’m so glad to be home, so can’t wait to be feeling my best. I usually would have this post up already, but still not 100 percent. I’m hoping sometime this week to know if my blood count has went up some more. Before I left it was still in the 5’s and we all know that’s not good. I must be honest with you all. Only Lauren knows whats going on with me. Right now I’m not doing good. I was supposed to have surgery on my birthday to have hip replacement, due to my illness. But that’s when I find out I had warm antibodies in me, because I done had so many transfusions, that’s why I can’t have anymore right now. I have been on the meds for over a month,and there not doing anything for me. I’m getting a lil discouraged, I must admit that to you all. I have been at my lowest last week and wanted to throw in the towel. I don’t know if it’s because I was just tired because of my health, and everything just wasn’t going my way or just cause the devil was just trying to get the bet of me. I believe it was a little of both. I’m not thinking that anymore. I know God isn’t finish with me yet, I’m here for a reason, so I need to continue to hold on and continue to fight to he calls me home to be with him. I’m so touch and feel so much love by all of your comments and prayers, it truly meant so much to me. I got to many visits from family and love one’s and calls from my best friend and TN, y’all thank you for praying for her mom her who had a stroke, she is doing so good. She has been there for me and so has her brother. They  have been keeping me laughing and if I couldn’t sleep staying up with me, and just praying for me. I couldn’t ask for two great group of lovely souls than them two. God knew what he was doing, he knew I couldn’t have that surgery for a reason on 5.21.13, I had to overcome this obstacle last week, and I can’t wait to im fully over it. I can’t wait to I can share more with you all. I need my rest and to stay on top of my studies, you all know how much I hate to be behind on my studies. God is truly good. I want to say thank you again. Thank you for joining my JOURNEY, and been part of my blogging family. I pray all is well with each and every one of you. God Bless. Sending love and hugs to each and every one of you. God Bless 🙂

Day 5-8, Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

thumbnailSCDHello Everyone, This has been one long week. I don’t believe I have been this sick in a long time. I havent been in the mood to blog are do much of anything. I actually started back with my studies Wednesday and havent even tempted to do any of it. I’m hoping to do some of it. I actually made calls yesterday to let them know whats going on, with me. I don’t want to be drop from my classes. I didn’t get transfusion because it’s not in my best interest, but part of me wish I had got it. I’m so weak. My blood count is still low but still holding its low. I’m 5.8 so it’s coming up a lil. So that good 🙂 I got off the fluids yesterday, which im very happy about, I got tired of going to the bathroom so much. I still have my port hook up since I still have to get pain meds, since Im still hurting. Yesterday they actually lost someone on my floor she was 100yrs ole. She was blessed to live to see such a bless age. My nurse took it hard, and I can truly understand where she was coming from. Thank you all for the prayers and comments, and do bare with me. I havent had the chance to approve comments. Even the likes means a lot to me 🙂 Im hoping to go home today are tomorrow. It maybe tomorrow because im not feeling my  best today, and I want to be at my best when I head home. I did get a chance to talk to my lil lady and she ready for me to come home to her. And im ready to come home to her as well. I told her to be good, so I hope she does, but that easy said then done.   I have had some great group of nurses, doctor. Cant really say doctors, because I only been seen one doctor. I have to make a post about that another time, right now I feel like laying back down and getting some more rest. I pray everyone is having a Bless Friday.

Day 1-4 Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

thumbnailSCDHello Everyone,  I have been in hospital since Friday! I know its been awhile since I posted on my illness. Thursday Night, I got slap with pain in my right leg, but was hoping it would go away on its own. But early Friday Morning, and ended up getting worse and led me to ER and later on getting put in hospital. I havent had this kind of pain since I was in my teens, and I must say my early teens, broughts tears to my eyes. I couldnt walk, I can walk better today then I could a few days ago. Thank you Lord! When I posted a poem on my birthday, Fighting 2 Leave, I cant have tranfusion, so Im praying that my blood count comes back up. They was in process of looking for my blood type, but like I told them I cant have transfusion. it would do more harm to me then good.I have had some great nurses and of course doctors as well. I have a lil nut of nurse right now. Just something abou that woman. I may have to get to know her lil more. Shes the only new nurse  I done had so far, the others I done seen once before. I got a beautiful surprise for Fathers Day. I thought I wasnt going to see my dad, and he surprise me when he walk through the door with the lil ones and my brother and mom. I call him early yesterday morning to tell him I love him and Happy Fathers Day. First time been away from my ole man on Fathers Day. I pray all the fathers had a lovely day, and all the mothers who stepping in to do both the jobs as well. God Bless 🙂

Fighting 2 Live

Fighting to live!
Today I could’ve died on operating table!
Its suppose to be joyous day
Getting older and wiser!
Fighting to Live!
My body is in for a fight!
I’m praying I make it
To it’s truly my time to leave this world!
Fighting to Live!
Today I turn 29!
And I could’ve took my last breath
I’m not complaining
I’m just going to take back my life and give it to God!
Happy Birthday 2 Me!
Fighting 2 Live

Living With Sickle Cell Anemia…

thumbnailSCDI’m so thankful for all the prayers and comments and even the likes, truly touch my heart. I had been sick for over a month,and trying to stay strong while in school, but got to the point I just couldn’t take it anymore. Ended up at the E.R Monday afternoon,let me tell you, that was the longest time I ever had to wait to be seen. If I was in the mood to  write a story on E.R, that would be one of them, with so many lovely and not so lovely stories to share with you all around the world. Lets just say, I didn’t get seen to about 7:30 that night, yep you read correctly and yes I type correctly. I was not a happy person, let me tell you. I got admitted but didn’t get put on the floor to the next morning. I was blessed with kind doctor and lovely nurses, and some cute male nurses if I do say so myself 🙂 I had transfusion, only one unit, which I’m thankful for. My doctor is smart now, he starts ahead of time to look for my blood. Whew, because you know I be still in their waiting, so im home, with the love one’s. I really wasn’t in the mood to post from hospital. I basically just got some rest, because I havent been sleeping since I havent been feeling good. I was my first hospital stay since the new year, so that’s truly a Blessings. If you was with me last year, you know how much that means to me and where I’m coming from. Right now, I’m doing some catch up with my studies, so hopefully soon as I’m caught up or when the term is over I can give blogging some more of my attention. I have read all the comments, just haven’t had time to approve them. I can honestly say my hemoglobin was good before I got put in but my retic count wasn’t because I was in so much pain, it end up dropping and he though I would need 2 units of blood. I know I’m everywhere with this post, sorry about that. I try to do another one real soon to keep you all updated. I do have doctor appointed in a few days, to see how everything going on. I pray all is well with each and every one of you. God Bless 🙂
