| How many of you have been reading carolyn's journal i wonder? I have been keeping up with it every time she writes a entry. I feel like i know her.Of course she has no clue as to who i am but i feel as i have made a friend and when a freind is hurting it makes me hurt to. I encourage everyone to read today's post it is heart moving i am still crying as i write this entry. to go through your father and your husband dying within three weeks of each other is unfathonable to me but yet she is still here and has been able to move on with her life for which I commend her greatly. today was a hard one. I am a nursing student that is in clinicals at a catholic hospital in Ohio. I had a interesting Sister today to say hte least I never knew someone could be so rude!!! i had thought that when a nurse was there that they were supposed t be patient orientated. HA!!! not so in this case. I pray that when i become a nurse that i will have feelings not only for my client but for their family and friends as well . |
| Bad luck |
Date Posted: 01-25-2006 at 03:27 PM |
| Have you ever met any on ein your lives that everything bad seemsto happen to ? Where if they didn't have bad luck they would have no luck at all? well you have jsut met her. I am probably the clumiest person you will ever meet. I am a extremly tall full figured woman who had huge feet that seem to get in the way of everything. I have had some good luck like meeting my husband getting married, having two beautiful kids. trusting in my lord as my savior, finding my bmom in April of 04 oh and getting into nursing school when all hope was lost . Other than that i have bad luck. I am 27 years ols and have had 2 major surgeries and 5 minor surgeries. I got the stomach flu last week that lasted for 4 solid days( go figure) my kids got sick with me YAHOOO not only was i cleaning up after myself but my two kids to!!! I pinched my larm on my laptop bag last friday and you guessed it i now have celluitus in my arm . My clinincal instructor saw my arm this am and MADE me go to the school physician who promptly put me on an antibiotic. ARRGHHH!!! And then to top it off I got a stupid papercut that hurts like the dickens OUCH!!!! I am very unlucky when it comes to medical stuff. Oh well life goes on hopefully. |
| NOSY and PROUD |

| Well, I have had an interesting past couple of days. I managed to get an infection in my arm so i almost was not able to do clinicals on thursday. I am so stressed out. I am supposed to be doing homework right now instead i am on this site trying to catch up on some journals form caroly and Aria's mom. Man i am telling you that life would be so much nicer if i just had my degree already. Then i would be working and i would not hav to worry where the money for the heating bill and mortgage is going to come from. I am a true believer in the old woves tale that the more money you make the more money you apend. her is an example. My husbands aunt and uncle are extremly rich yet they rent their house from her parents Mike works at honda here in Ohio. Now i am not sure if any of you are from the area but honda is a majority of everyones income around the area. Mike gets paid on a weekly basis and nancy babysitts kids during theweek under the table. She makes and average of 500 per week and after taxes he brings home around 1350 a week. But yet they are constantly complaining that they do not have enough money. The are always late on their rent to ask me how i know all of these thinga? A) accidently saw mike;s paystub one afternoon.B) I have my kids babysit by nancy so i know how much she charges me and how many kids she has per week so therefore i just did the math C) i am good as gold with her parents i am the only grandchild/outlaw that visits on a regular basis so therefore they tell me everything. and D) I AM NOSY!!!!!! So there you guys have it ai ma nosy and jealous that we have to struggle in between paychecks and yet mike and nancy are basically rolling in money but yet they never seem to have any.typical of my life thats for surte. ALst PM i had a girls night out it was very interesting to say the least. I amde my famous cucumber sald and broght sourdough bread to eat it on it was a hit!!! ha ha needless to say i think thatmy husband wanted everyone to hate it so he could have it all to himself. he loves the stuff. But his wish did not come true I barely brought any hoem and i took a 5 pound container of the stuff! wel on with studying ARRGGGGHHHH!!!! |
| another weekend |
Date Posted: 02-04-2006 at 09:18 AM |
| well it is another saturday and we again do not have any money to go and do anything. I will actually be doing whati am supposed to and study all weekend long its not like i dont have anything to do its just that i am stuck with my husband who can be very annoying at times. we have yet to file our taxes because one of his ols employers has yet to send a W2 i calledhte Irs yesterday adn they tols me to wait until the 15Th I dont wantot wait we have money coming to us!! we we actually be able topay off our car and our truck YAHOOO that is if we get back the amount that we are hoping for i am sure we will we are considered poor by the government so therefore we will get EITC yipee!! I spent all day yesterday writing my journal for myclinincla experience on thrusday. my patient was an inspiration to me she was 84 years old and had been married for 68 years. She was black so she had seen way more thati can ever imagine that i will see in my lifetime. her husband was so sweet and devoted to her it made me get goose bumps it was so sweet. It made me realize that i had better appreciate my husband because he might not be around for that long. I cannot imagine life without him i will be one of those couple where the husband dies and the wife follows within a coupleof weeks. Yup, that will be me. I have always thought that i will die young like in my 30's i hope not but anything i possible. well i had better go and actually study. |

| knowledge is power! Remember that. Read all you can about Lyme at Lyme Disease Society website. There's not always a bulls eye after a bite. Absolutely have a blood test SPECIFICALLY for Lyme Disease for your daughter asap. She may have antibodies which means that she has been infected and her body is fighting it. She needs antibiotics for at least 2 weeks (amoxicillan for kids; doxicicline for adults) and also read website for Dr. Leslie Fein. Very important to catch it early and act aggressively for treatment. After her antibiotics, INSIST she have another Lyme bloodwork done to recheck her antibodies. Please learn all you can about this horrible debilitating disease and NEVER remove a tick with your bare fingers as you can also get the bacteria on you. Since it was embedded, the head may still be under her skin. I was recently diagnosed w/Lyme antibodies cause I insisted my doctor add the Lyme to my yearly bloodwork. My symptoms are tiredness and forgetfulness. Let me know how it goes and good luck! Judy |
