My Pain

My pain,

you can’t see

Do they not

understand,

I hurt in

the same way?

Why must I suffer

because of stupidity

I know they thinking

nothing wrong, she

here for the meds.

The pain

I have, they should

walk a mile

in my shoes

Are we not the

same?

Look pass my outer

Laying here

tossing & turning

Praying

The pain

I have is driving me

crazy

Do they not understand

I hate this place

Don’t I tense up

every time a needle

is mention.

I know they got

to be tired of seen me

trust it goes both ways.

My pain

they don’t understand

nor believes.

Oh your blood count is good

and everything else is fine

Lets send her home.

I swear they love seen

me coming back

to this EVIL PLACE

I wish they could

understand and treat me

with RESPECT..

GOD

I know you in Control

and you know my pain

Praise God

for a doctor

who understands,

a friend

who always there

a nurse

who never forsake me

Praise GOD

he knows My Pain

I’m so thankful for everyone kind and encouraging words, and letting me know you still praying for me. Yesterday morning I woke up around 12 and my whole body was hurting, I couldn’t move. I got up and fell back down on my bed. Took me turning and tossing in my bed for like 4 hrs to get back right so I could sleep. I still wasnt feeling my best when I did my post yesterday. The poem is inspired about what happen and etc…

No, I’m not in the hospital, I use numbers and count the days when I’m in hospital. Since I have been out, I haven’t been feeling my best. I’m trying not to stress because hey we all know what stress can truly do to our bodies. It ain’t pretty sight! I’m more worry about my blood count then anything right now.  Its been long time since I haven’t had to get transfusion, my count wasn’t all that high. I’m use to leaving hospital with either high 8 or 9 and last month it was 10. It kept going up to even when I visit my primary doctor. When I did visit the hospital the first time it was sort of high 8, but it drop to low 7 since I was in so much pain and it was going up to it reach 7.8 then a little bit more. So you think I should be, NEGATIVE. So since I’m not feeling my best, I was told to make a doctor appointment with my Primary Doctor. I already knew that wasnt going to happen, since I can get to his office on time and still be in there for almost four hours if not exactly four hours. If you wonder what the heck he be doing, you truly not alone. So I made the appointment with  my hemoglobin doctor. If I have to get transfusion, I plan on going for the port ASAP, I can’t take no more sticking and poking.

 

I started my JOURNEY with sharing my illness with ya’ll because I wanted to spread more AWARENESS on my illness. I must say I haven’t done a good job at all. Seems either I’m sick or school or you know we had the lovely holidays last year. I know I still have to do a post to explain what exactly it does and you know all that good stuff. I know everyone doesn’t know what it is exactly. I believe before I continue sharing my illness, I should share a post about it, and do trust me its coming very soon. I’m still struggling with catching up with my studies and staying on top of it. I hate when I’m behind and it takes forever to catch up, seems like that all I’m doing to be honest and its showing in my grades. So not happy when I’m so close to been done with my associate degree. I plan on getting my bachelor once I graduate. Off the topic, but wanted to share that little bit info with you all. I do hope everyone is having a BLESS Day/Night! God Bless

Day 5, Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

Hello Everyone,

Time to share some news with ya’ll. As of last night I received new my count is going up. It’s not all that good, long as it’s not 7 something, I can totally dig it! lol! So I was told I could go home tomorrow! YAY! Its Morning, I have had my cup of coffee & bacon on the side! lol If you wondering if I had anything else on my tray, surely did. It was muffin, I didn’t touch it! Finally seen the doctor this morning, he ask me if I wanted to go home. UMMMMMM…… What kind of question is that? I said yes, if you wondering if I’m feeling my best. The question is NO, but I’m ready to be home. I know I’ll do what I need to do to prevent my immune system from getting attack again. The weather is no joke here. SPRING I NEED YOU! I’m just saying! 🙂 I can’t even tell you the last time I was in hospital that I didn’t have to get transfusion. So thank to everyone who has been praying for a speedy recovery. I have had so many great nurses, since I have been here. Can’t say the same for what they been trying to feed me. Not even going to go there right now!

 

 

HOPE EVERYONE IS HAVING A BLESS MONDAY!

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
