Posted on 22 Mar 2012 by poeticjourney

Hello, and welcome to day 4. I’m still in the hospital, yesterday was actually a long day. I ended up gettng my tranfusion lastnight and didnt get finish to about two somethng this morning. As of right now my blood count is looking good, but its showing I’m dehydrated still so thats probably why I’m still hurting some. Had to get some x-rays this morning, seem I have touch of bronchitis, I don’t know how I got it. The doctor believe its the reason why I’m in the hospital because of it. I don’t know why its so hard for people to cover up there mouth when they cough. I’m so thankful for all the prayers, kind words you all have left me. God has truly BLESS me with some kind nurses and doctors. I’m not much with words tonight. I shall keep you all updated and make the next post longer. Till next time.. God Bless 🙂

Hello and welcome to another day with me in the hospital. Still waiting to get the confirmation about the blood tranfusion. I didn’t get much sleep lastnight, because they kept going and leaving out of here. My blood count has drop some more over the night. As of right now, I need two units of blood instead of one. Just got a visit from my blood doctor and it seems I will be rocking oxygen to help with the pain. I have been bless with some mre nice nurses today as well as lastnight. I’m so touch and thankful for all of y’all kind words and prayers, it does mean a lot to me. I shall keep you all updated as much as possible, I’ll be getting two units of blood for sure now. So I have to wait to both of them are here, so I an get them all in same day. I’m so happy SPRING is here, and I get to miss it all because I;m sick… :(, but I’m Alive, so I can’t complain. It could be so much worser then what it is right now. I do hope all is well with each and everyone of you.

Doctor Appointment

Posted on 25 Jan 2012 by poeticjourney

Good Afternoon,

and welcome to my JOURNEY, I know I mention in my Word to the Wise, that had doctor appointment. I’m here to let you know how it went. It went sort of good! YAY! I mention to him, that I’m ready to go for port, because hey your girl is getting tired of getting stick when it comes to things like that. So they or checking into information before I go in for it. I’m little nervous but it’s good I won’t feel it when the time comes, and its a lot easy on my body. I have so many scars on my arms when it comes to sticking me. I actually have a poem call Scars,that talks about it. http://poeticjourney251.com/2011/12/14/scars/ Make sure you click the link to read it. The doctor ask me do I believe I need transfusion, since it was still low. Tell me how come my doctor thinks its low when its 8,but the fools at the E.R don’t. That be another story for another time. Well been home for a while actually waking up from a much needed nap. I got a call saying I need transfusion, its starting to drop once again. I must say I’m hoping that since I’m getting transfusion now, that I wont have to see inside hospital month coming up. I have to pray about it and wouldn’t mind if you all prayed as well. 🙂 So I have to go in later today so they can stick me once again. Sighs, I do pray and hope they have good luck finding a vein. Since I was in the hospital a few weeks ago, someone stuck me in not so good place and have knot to show for it. If you new to joining my JOURNEY, I have Sickle Cell Anemia. They want to me to get the transfusion tomorrow, but I know for a fact that I’m not going to enjoy this. I have to go through a lot before I can actually get the transfusion, that my only main problem right now. Sighs, moving on time to throw all my worries in my school work. I’ll shall keep you all posted on what happen when it happen. 🙂

I’m so thankful for all the prayers from each and every one of you! Truly means a lot to me. 🙂 I do hope each and every one of you having a Bless Day

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!
