My terrible day...

My brother has been having knee trouble for a few weeks. They took a fluid sample and sent it to the lab. Today they called him at home and had him come right up to the hospital- they found 2 strains of staph infection which can be life-threatening. Anyway, they did surgery and he's recovering and we'll know more in a day or so.

Within 1 hour of getting home from the hospital, I got a call that my grandma was being rushed to the same hospital due to a fall. Since I'm home with Brooke, I'm just sitting here waiting for an update.

And, to top it all off my MIL is being put on a prednisone IV for the next 2 weeks because her Multiple Sclerosis is flaring up.

I think I ate for 3 people today due to stress and because it's "that time"}( so there goes some of the weight I lost!x(

WHAT ELSE CAN HAPPEN TODAY!?!
 
Oh Wendy, sending you ((((hugs)))).
I believe bad things happen in 3s. You've had your 3. You should be all set for awhile.

Take care,

Elaine
 
Wendy....I hate those bad days....:(....It's awful to sit and wait...sending http://www.geocities.com/shangrala_shangy/hugs2.gif[/img] your way and hoping tomorrow is much better!...:)...Carole
 
When I have bad days I light a candle, fill the jacuzzi full of hot water, set the jets on high and relax with a glass of red wine. If you don't have a jaccuzi you can always fart in the tub (it works just as well). I saw that on an old Eddie Murphy movie called "Trading Places." I do hope I at least amused you for a split second with the thought:). Cyberhugs and I do hope things get sunny for you soon.

Wendy, what a rotten day. I hope things get better. As a microbiologist in a hospital lab, I know how serious your brother's infection is. I will be praying for his recovery, as well as the rest of your troubles. HUGS.
 
Wendy,
(((((((hugs))))))))) Hope everyone gets better.

I know what you mean about stress eating. My brother was in the hospital over the weekend and it was vending machines and Mc Donalds. I just accepted it and moved on.

take care

Good grief! What a mess. I sure hope today is better. I've taken up meditation just very recently to relieve stress. I doubt I'm doing it in the true Eastern way, but it helps. I sit cross-legged in dim lighting, close my eyes and concentrate on breathing. It's hard at first, but my goodness - once the awareness kicks in and you're finally able to let go of the tightness and truly breathe, it's just so nice. Take care of yourself, and best wishes to your family!
 
Wendy-
I'm so sorry to hear about this, and hope that everyone is going to be okay. I just looked at your picturetrail and Brooke is such a beautiful baby! I just love your favorite pic of her.

Thinking of you,

Nancy
