I agree with everyone! I hope you all had a very nice Christmas and a happy
and healthy New Year!!! Eric was definitely right when stating that the
days and years usually fly by when you get older but slow if you are in the
hospital and wanting to get home.

Greg & I, despite living in Southern Arizona, are freezing over the last
couple weeks!!! It  should be nicer weather by Saturday  hopefully. I don't
look forward to the hot summers especially because I need to walk my German
Shepherd that I adopted in November of 2018 because they require a lot of
exercise and I need to stay on the asphalt with my wheelchair and there
isn't many grassy areas except at nearby parks. She is wonderful but boy is
she stubborn! She would really love the colder weather but not me!

Have had my share of bladder infections (practically monthly) over the last
2 years that I acquired from a hospital and I am still having those
"Psychogenic Nonepileptic Seizures" that started after my husband's
passing. It was a very traumatic occurrence (him taken away from me one
morning when a cardiac arrest) and I had never heard of these type of
seizures and never had seizures before so that is now into the equation
over the last 7 1/2 years as far as problems. The latest bladder infection
put me in severe, paralyzing bladder pain on Christmas Eve and then it got
better. But it happens every month and the MRSA is never going away.

Over the last couple months I have had a very heavy amount of sediment in
my urine and therefore catheter and when that happens... usually the
bacteria "Proteus Mirabilis" is the culprit so when I got the lab
results... sure enough that was present. There is no cure for it but the
sediment can turn into bladder stones which happened with my urethral
catheter. It hasn't been present (or shown up on a lab report in a long
time prior to a couple months ago to the present) but I was written out a
script for the antibiotic "Cefpodomixe" (with the brand name being Vantin
with the brand name being discontinued in the United States) but not sure
why. The co-pay is nearly $24 and getting it filled today.

Just trying to stay alive over the last several years including being
diagnosed with superficial bladder cancer which, unfortunately, was able to
be removed and has not shown up again but I see my urologist every 6 months
to make sure. I had a rental increase last year and, being on a fixed
income and having to pay someone 24/7 now that I am no longer with family
or my husband, I am going to have to come right out and tell them that I
can't afford another increase. Been trying to find a rental home whereby
the landlords, in my experience, do not increase the rent every year but
haven't been successful. My area of town is more exclusive but I have
always lived here and know people from when I lived here for many many
years with my husband and I don't want to live closer to the border.

So, with all of us getting older I hope we all have a happier and healthier
New Year!!!

It amazes me how fast the years seem to fly by when you get older.  Of
course, if you had to spend any time in the hospital this past year, the
time couldn't go fast enough.  I hope all of you have a healthy 2020.
