Today I decided to do nothing but lay around – to relax all day and try to trigger my blood to start regenerating. It’s day #23 and so far nothing! I feel all achy. My cousins Nancy and Tina called say hello and see how I was navigating though my difficult voyage. I always laugh when I talk with them no matter how heavy the conversation. Tina spent time trying to convince me to TAKE the Xanax that was prescribed for me three weeks ago, which I finally filled yesterday (she calls it vitamin X and thinks that everyone should have iit in their cupboard). I mean, how many mental meltdowns do I need to have before I accept “help” in trying to get my head around this situation I’m in? I’m certainly not doing a very good job on my own, am I?
When my son Steve called today I told him how useless I felt and how I can’t get anything accomplished. He said to me that because I’m expending so much effort trying to get well (60%, 70%, 90%?), I only have a small amount of effort left to expend on other things. That’s why things fall through the cracks or don’t get done. People ask me how many books I’ve read or how many movies I’ve watched or how much work work I have done. The answer is ZERO. Is it no time or no ability to concentration or both? Am I trying to figure out something that really can’t be figured out? I am struggling!!

ReplyDeleteNow that the perscription is filled, let's take the next step. It my actually help you with your concentration.
June, Are you praying for help and healing with all of this? We are praying for you to have strength to deal with all of this. I know it is easier for me to say than for you to do, I have not been walking in your shoes this time. But we are here to help you. I will call you. Jeanie
ReplyDeleteHi June, Do I have to drive over and give you a glass of water and that little pill :-)???
ReplyDeletePlease take the pill ---- I am here to tell you it will take the edge off - you'll feel much better.
And yes, we are praying for you.
You haven't posted in a few days......maybe you are in Houston?
Love, Maria

Hi June,
ReplyDeleteSo happy that I found out about this blog. Hope by now you've taken the pill. As someone else said, it will take the edge off. Stop trying to figure things out (you can't) & does it really matter how much you get accomplished? Please know that I'm thinking about you and praying for you.
Love,
Joan
Hi June,
ReplyDeleteThinking of you. You haven't posted in a while so I was just wondering how you are doing. You must be in HOuston. I will be in Florida from Feb 24 - Mar 3. If you are in Fl at the same time please let me know on email. I would love to visit with you. Love and hugs...Cathy
Thinking of you and just thought I would drop in and say hello.
