Living With Sickle Cell Anemia…

Posted on 16 Jul 2013 by poeticjourney

Hey 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.

Summer Crush

Posted on 13 Jul 201314 Jul 2013 by poeticjourney

My heart feel at ease
I’m ready to give it a try
One more time
Can this be real?
What I’m feeling
My heart is going insane
It’s actually feeling emotions for another soul
Summer is here
New season
time to finally put away
Past and give it a try
I can’t be scared no more
The past is the past
My future right around the corner
And I can’t let him pass me by
Because of previous mistakes on my behalf!
Summer arrive
And brought me a flame
That’s ready for my attention
Summer Crush

Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

Posted on 23 Jun 2013 by poeticjourney

Hello 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

Posted on 21 Jun 2013 by poeticjourney

Hello 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

Posted on 17 Jun 2013 by poeticjourney

Hello 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 🙂

Missing You

Posted on 8 Jun 20139 Jun 2013 by poeticjourney

Part of me should be dancing
The other part is dying!
The love wasn’t the same anymore!
Missing You
Feel like I’m losing myself when I can’t grab a hold of you
Love hasn’t truly died
We have change and outgrew one another
Missing You
Got me feenin one more time
For you
I felt alive, but lately I just been dying cause I knew we never be same
Missing You
Distant Love
Has brought me tears
Showed me just how strong I am
Are you there?
I’m missing you
But my heart finally at peace!

Word to the Wise (Spiritual Word Of The Day)

Posted on 30 May 2013 by poeticjourney

Learn from your setbacks with Grace and then Move Forward. Rewrite your Story. #progress #BetterDaysAhead

What a powerful message this afternoon, I pray it speaks to someone soul as it speaks to me. Sometimes we let circumstances stop us from living because things don’t go our way, but we need to learn to learn from them and to keep going. Right now, I’m going through some difficult times with my illness and its showing me many things. God is truly opening my eyes. I’m really bless to be able to see another year on this earth. God Is truly Good, I can’t say that enough. I pray all is well with each and every one of you. God Bless 🙂

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

Breaking Point

Posted on 10 May 201310 May 2013 by poeticjourney

Falling in love was the hardest thing for me to come to terms with….
But it seems falling out of love is easy but painful!
Guess it depends on how much your heart put in and willing to let go!
I’m at the breaking point and giving it all away with no regrets and remorse….
I’m a cold person…
And it shows …..
I’m a woman fed up…
Falling Out Of Love and not looking back!
What can I say
I’m a woman on a mission to dismiss what’s not beneficial for me…
