Day 4, Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

Hello Everyone,

Time to share some of my day with you. Still in the hospital, have seen the doctor. I have finally saw the doctor and right now at 5 I’ll be getting my blood check and praying It still good or even better. I’ll let you all know how that goes. I’m ready to start feeling better so I can go home and enjoy the craziness of my family. Trying to do my homework but its hard with only one hand to use. I can’t use my right hand because of the I.V been in an uncomfortable spot for me. And I’m not trying to get stuck again. If things don’t go well with my blood count, then maybe I’ll have to get another I.V thats for another post! I have great nurse who I met years ago. It’s good to see a familiar face when you in unpleasant place. I actually miss doing some poetry, I have been thinking of a few pieces to write but havent had the strength to type, I wouldn’t dare write since I wouldn’t be able to understand.

before I end the post I would love TO THANK EACH & EVERYONE OF YOU FOR PRAYING, KEEPING ME IN YOUR THOUGHTS, AS WELL ENCOURAGEMENT! GOD BLESS EACH & EVERYONE OF YOU 🙂

GOD TRULY BLESS ME WITH EACH & EVERYONE OF YOU

Day 4, Living with Sickle Cell Anemia

Today I got the news I get to go home. I receive my last unit of blood early this morning. Can you say I’m happy about being ready to get out this place and to be home in my own bed and to be able to eat real food? I have being starving myself because I haven’t being hungry or just because hey the food is nasty.  I still have my headaches, but I believe I can deal with them. The doctor got me on some new medicine that supposes to help with the headaches, so I can’t wait to see how well they help. The headaches have being no picnic for me. Right now I’m writing from home, which I’m happy about so I can be able to do some serious spell check. I’m not feeling 100 percent better. But hey I’m home. I got work to work on but I believe I start all that tomorrow. I got to Friday to get it in, I hate to get to far behind on my school work. My goal is to stay on top of everything this semester. I have doctor appointment tomorrow. I’m praying for some good news.  My blood count is 8.7. Some may be wondering wow that kind of low, but in my case its better then 6.4. I’ll never have 11 or 13 like a person that don’t have my illness.  Felt good to see my niece and nephew today. I didn’t think I miss them as much as I thought, but they were so glad to see me. I got me some hugs and kisses.  Just to feel them in my arms and to know they love me was enough to let me know I’m glad to be home.

I may be home from hospital so my post will not be days anymore since I’m not in hospital, but will post about sickle cell once a week.    I hope to touch many lives and more ways than one. Any question doesn’t be afraid to ask me. I’m here to ask. My journey is here for everyone that’s willing to join it with me to learn more.

 

My Blessing 2 Each and Every One Of you. God Bless
