[TMIC] Happy Holidays to my good friends at TMIC
Title: AOL Email Happy Holidays Having been gone from the list for some time now, I was saddened to hear of the hardships and heartbreak some of us faced during this annual celebration of Love. Barbara, I am sorry to hear of the passing of your Mother. It is my belief that she is happy now, with no thoughts of pain or anguish. You will have a wonderful reunion when the time is right, as you mentioned. And, it is true that the pain eases with time. My Grace, What a time you have been experiencing! I am so sorry not to have been around for you in your time of need. "Why?" Is the biggest question in the Universe. "Why Not?" Is the only answer I can come up with. But, I am not very bright and someone else may have a more satisfying answer for us. I don't believe there is one. While I was in the nursing home, I made friends with a nurse who gave me the most beautiful prayer. It is somewhere in my bags of accumulated names, addresses and phone numbers of new friends made while I was there. To All ~ While carefully doing my usual stretching exercises on my feet and ankles, I somehow managed to break both ankles...the left one in three places and the right one fractured and cracked. I am in two hot pink fiberglass casts around my feet and to my knees. They are on for two weeks at a time, then re-xrayed and the skin checked for lesions before being put back into new casts in the color of my choice. The casts will remain on for a minimum of 6 to 8 weeks and hopefully will heal in that time frame. It's weird about the pain. I don't feel a thing on the outside, but way down deep in the bone there is a burning sensation that borders on extreme pain of a kind I cannot describe any better than I already have. Of course it is difficult to move or do anything. I have been plagued with bowel problems and cathing every three hours is precarious work. It was nice to have a foley in place while I was recuperating. While being moved from the hospital to the nursing home I was blessed with three broken ribs, one creating a nice big lump in my back to the right of my spine and I am told there is lovely extensive bruising to decorate myself. Better than a tatoo! Nursing home experience is something I have been petrefied about having to face someday, and now know that when the time comes, I will be able to handle it. At least a bit. I will be laid up in bed for the most part for the majority of my recovery. I am so angry at the doctors for not telling me about brittle bone syndrome lying in wait for me. I will now have to be very precise and careful about every move I make. I want to buy a tilt table so that at some time in the future I will be able to weight bear on my legs, even though I will never walk. So, that is where I have been and this is where I will be. I love you all and thought of you every day, but simply didn't feel up to dealing with the computer. Love and Heartfelt Thanks for your friendship ~ Jude
