It is ironic. I was excited for this summer. We are finally getting a real vacation after four years. (All other previous attempts failed, mostly due to sicknesses, and last year due to my husband’s strike.) I was looking forward to this year’s season pass to Dorney Park; with no open incisional wounds, I can […]
Well, some good news for a change. The insurance mess I mentioned previously has been resolved…kind of. They did (FINALLY) retro us back to January of 2011. (Come on, it WAS their mistake. I don’t understand why we had to take it to the union to get them to do that!) But now comes the
Once again, it has been a big gap between my last posting and now. But, boy do I have some updates! You know, “You take the good, you take the bad…” To start with, in general for everyone, we have had a big mess with our insurance. We did not discover the full scope of

A new year begins, and hopefully things will start turning around for us soon. There really is no new progress for me. I will be starting physical therapy again, soon. But there is really nothing as a particular reason. I guess the doctor figures it won’t hurt. My immune system is the same…pretty bad. *LOL*

Well, once again life is distracting me…preventing me from posting updates timely. I have not had a lot of time for anything on the computer lately other than necessities like email. (And even that tends to get backed up on the one account.) I will try to get everything in…because a LOT has happened. Me: Same

This time I can update on others besides me! But I guess I can start with my stuff. I am still recovering, 2 weeks after surgery. They left the wounds open, as there were infection issues going on. It’s exhausting, really, to still have to tend the wounds myself. I still have whatever cold this
The surgery was performed on Monday. The doctor ended up having to open two parts of the incisional area. The bad tissue was removed, and the doctor did find an offending stitch in the area that was not healing. The other area was sort of healed, but very puffy and irritated…but this is what typically
Two trips to doctors have taken place this week. The first was to my primary care doctor. I see him every 3 months for a general check-up, because of all of my ailments. Well, because of some erratic blood tests lately, I now have a glucose blood monitor to test my own blood. I do
I previously posted this on Facebook, and forgot to update things here. I visited the wound care doctor on Tuesday. The doctor has now officially referred me back to my surgeon, as the incisional area is still not healed. As background information, the surgery that started all of this took place on March 24th. The wounds initially
Back to the surgeon… Read More »
