Day 4, Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

Good Morning,Finally decided to make it over to posting and reading comments. I’m so touch by every single one of you.  I’m still here in the hospital 😦 I had a rough night last night, and my blood count drop. Sighs!  It was 6.9 this morning, they want to make sure its one thing or another before they give me transfusion. I wasn’t happy to hear it drop again. I was hoping to have more good news to share with y’all today. I guess I will try to tempt some make up homework and get it in sometime today. I have been putting it off long enough. I’m ready to go home so I can have some real food. as you can see I don’t have much to talk about today. I do have some wonderful nurses today. 🙂 YAY! I hope each and every one of you have a Bless Friday! God Bless 🙂

Day 3, Quick Update

I’m back to share how it all went down today. OMG im so sore where I got my port at so its hurts to really move and to type, so this will be short post. I haven’t had the chance to make it to my comments so do bare with me. I’m not ignoring you. I have a nice nurse tonight, his name is Alex. His a funny guy 🙂 I was so glad to have something to drink, I can’t even tell you what all I had to drink. Of course I was excited about eating as well. I finish my subway sandwich it was good. I’m so thankful for all your prayers and comments. They truly mean a lot to me. Oh yea a little good news is I find out a few hours ago my blood count is going back up! YAY! still low but not low as it was the other day. Something tells me I’m forgetting something, if that the case I make sure to mention it tomorrow lord will. Many Blessings 2 each and every one of you! 🙂 Oh yea I must admit I have been getting much sleep since I been back from surgery. I got to meet the doctor earlier today before it came down to have the surgery, such a nice man. And plenty of nice nurses as well. 🙂

Day 3,Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

Good Morning, Another Day here in the evil place. I might make two post today. I’m not happy to be honest. I can’t eat or drink to I get my port. YAY for the port, boo that I can’t have anything to eat or drink. We have subway here at the hospital so it’s not like I would eat the hospital food. I would love a cup of coffee right now. I had another lovely nurse last night she went and go my sub for me last night. 🙂 I’m still waiting to get my transfusion, I need two units instead of one. I believe they have one right now, but not the other one. Sighs! I’m a little nerves about the port, but I need it, because I don’t know how much more I can take getting stick. I saw my little lady yesterday, she didn’t want to leave me. I was so happy to see her. I told her I would call her and check on her, but I feel bad since I was in so much pain yesterday. I had forgotten to call my little lady. She didn’t want to talk to me today. I can’t blame her. I saw my doctor yesterday. I seem to have to start seen a sickle-cell doctor since I’m having more crisis then every before. Oh yea lucky me I have to add another pill to my collection. Sighs! If you all don’t know I hate taking medication. I can understand take them every now and then when you have pain, but to take them so you wont have pain is another story. Well that all for now, I do hope each and every one of you is having a lovely day.

 

 

P.s I’m so thankful for all the prayers and lovely comments, they truly help my day go by. God Bless:)

Day 2,Living With Sickle Cell Anemia

Good Morning, I had rough night last night dealing with my I.V, had to get a new one. I would get a rude nurse this morning to put it in. I told her to take it out and she ask a stupid question WHY? or you freaking kidding me. Obviously it hurt. I had to but my tongue and let me tell you I had some words to say to be honest. Today I have a lovely nurse I done had before. She is so nice. She heard about the rude nurse, and I don’t know how she heard about her because I didn’t say nothing to anyone. I was in too much pain, to let the nurse I had known last night. I didn’t get the nurse name who came and put my I.V in, my nurse says she don’t play that. See what I mean a good nurse I have. Okay to the bad news, my count drop to 7.3, so you all know what that mean right? I need transfusion. sighs. I know another one. I’m still hurting today, not feeling my best, but wanted to share some of my good and bad news with you today, since last night was sort of short because of the pain. I’m so thankful for all your prayers and encouraging words. Truly touch my heart and head me all teary eyes. I shall keep you all posted, so until next time. You all have a Bless & Glorious Day!

 

p.s Almost forgot about the doctor, I do have a nice one this time around as well. Someone I never had before! Actually saw him when I got on the floor lastnight and that was around 11 soemthing. I told him I’m use to seen the doctor in the morning, he said he had nothing better to do. I had to laugh at them, sounds like a man thats about his business! We shall see how it goes throughout my stay here.

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…

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

Without him putting the ideal into

My head…

I wouldn’t have met so many great peoples

Who believe in praying for a stranger?

To push on

For over twenty years.

It doesn’t get easy.

Good peoples on my team praying
