Then I saw the angels




     I got to the the room where they prepare you to go the OR. There was the nurses that were prepping me for surgery. When I got to that room the head nurse of the whole hospital was in there. I had met her prior because they couldn't get my veins and she could not as well. So I had to get one of those ultrasound IVs. So back to what I was saying, the head nurse was in there was not happy. Before I was sent down to prepare for surgery, the nurse on my floor prior was supposed to put me on antibiotics before I left the floor. The nurse I had downstairs was new and was way behind schedule. When the head nurse found that out, she went back downstairs. She was not happy. 

      My anesthesiologist came in to start to prep me. He was  going to be putting a epidural in the middle of my back. I honestly was very scared at first. I figured though that if I could go through this pain, I could get an epidural. So he had me sit up and lean forward. I don't know how I didn't feel it, but I didn't. The other nurses that were gonna be in the OR with me were so nice. Everyone in that OR was nice. I was hooked up to antibiotics and I had an epidural, and now I was just waiting to go in. 


      No one was around me as I waited to go into surgery. All the nurses were doing their preps, the surgeon was getting ready to finish the surgery he was in, and the anesthesiologist was busy getting things ready for me. I can't lie and say I wasn't scared because I was. Now I want to explain how the recovery room was so you understand how things went after this. The OR room was off to the left where I was set till I went in. There was a curtain and someone beside me coming out of surgery. Ahead of me there was these old metal cabinets. It was crowed in that area where the cabinets were. I was laying there and I swear to you I saw angel shadows on each cabinet. I was focusing on what was going on spiritually. I said to myself is this really real ? As I write about this I get goosebumps. As U watch the surgeon come out and them tell me they were ready.  It was that time, time to go in the operating room.

I feared for my life

                        That Thursday evening on the 26th of May they wanted to bring me down to  have an xray. All day I had been complaining about this pain. I honestly thought it was a  stitch. It really hurt but I was lucky I was all drugged up so I didn't feel all the pain I    should have. I went manic. I was so hopped up on steroids and pain killers. So since I had  been complaining and they were checking up on me, it was time for an xray.                  I was trying to lay flat on my bed. I could not keep my right leg down and   relaxed or this so called "stitch". The  X - ray  technologists came and picked me up. She  was so humble to be around. I remember telling her everything that had been  happening. I  told her the whole story. I am a social person and when drugged ...

Death is final

                              One thing I always try to avoid talking about is death. The sound of that word makes me cringe. It brings on these feelings that are overwhelming. One second you are here and one second you are not. We don't know when our final breathe will be. We don't know if we will be young or old, and if it's tragic or of natural causes. Those are the first two questions I always see people ask, I have even asked these questions myself.                  The early morning that Wee passed away my whole life changed. When I tell you it has changed that is no lie. There is this piece of you that goes with them when animals or humans pass away. There is this certain ache that doesn't go away and the tears just will not stop. This is this feeling of wanting something back so bad and not being able to fill that void. The days that follow nights and nig...

You're sitting me up ?!

                           Later that day I was told that I could get my catheter out. I was so beyond excited. A big reason why I wanted it out was because I had started my period. There was nothing comfortable about laying back in my bed. I hadn't known I started at this point. I was still on bed rest so I wasn't getting up. As females have their periods, some females may not. I happened to have my period be extremely inconsistent. Some months I would shed my lining. Others I did not. All I do know is if you are a female you get a double whammy. I would say that every month I become extremely flared up while having my monthly. So lucky me, I had to start at the hospital. That is probably why I had such bad cramps that day. I had sworn it was my ovary, but it wasn't. Or it was a little bit of ovary pain. They were quite worried about me. and the blood was coming out me black.        ...
