Mom had a fall about a month back and I went up to take care of her while she was recovering. Intial diagnosis was way off, she went to a local hospital but has more recently gone to a much more stable situation at Stanford who properly diagnosed her and fixed that situation ( Read more... )

For obvious reasons I can't visit Mom when I'm sick as that could get her sick, and as it happens I frequently don't get sick that often ( Read more... )

Got inoculated for flu, pneumonia, & Hep B this morning.

Mostly think I'm okay. Left arm is a little sore, but that's to be expected. Although, I feel very warm now... and it's night time. Thermometer is at 69°F but I feel A LOT warmer than that.

Could be slightly feverish, but have no hallucinations so not sure; the 2 go hand in hand with me

Still dealing with kidney stone, in a not painful mode at the moment.

I've had a similar thought before, but a recent twist occurred to my not quite feverish self this past weekend.

Anytime I'm really sick I tend to run out of tissue really fast. After which, anything within reach that isn't nailed down essentially becomes a tissue.

It's a good thing I don't have kids.

No worries, I'm not suicidal... I'm just really sick. As soon as I'm healthy again my zest for life shall return ( Read more... )

I didn't sleep at all between Sunday & Monday. Seemed like my usual sporadic insomnia, but I kinda had to wonder if that time around it was more diet related. Sunday, for whatever reason, I had PB&J's for breakfast, lunch, & dinner. Nothing bad came of it... possible exception of the insomnia ( Read more... )
