I'm up early this morning, didn't sleep much last night. My mother is 80 and she has had long covid since a week following Thanksgiving last year. About a month ago her covid turned to Pneumonia. She has been fighting it. Trips to the ER on several occasions. A few days in the hospital last week. Then I got a call she was back there yesterday morning. My stepfather called yesterday evening and her BP has dropped way low. They put a catheter in her neck? I don't know all about it. I do know she isn't responding to the antibiotics. I'm trying to get my strength together to have my friend take my up there it's about an hour and a half trip. So I'm trying to pull all my pieces together cause there is great concern from everyone. 😞

Im so sorry Allen5280 🤗 💕🌠

I am doing OK 👍

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to Morllyn]

You are always doing ok! 🙂🤗💕🌠

[Morllyn in reply to Jesmcd2]

My MS has ups and downs, has kicked my butt and taken all of my energy. But it seems to have never been as bad as most of the people I have met here. I always have issues with my MS but right now, besides the pain, I am ok.

Take care lady.❤️

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to Morllyn]

Just because your MS doesnt "seem as bad" doesnt mean it doesnt matter luv! 🤗 You matter! Your MS matter!🤗💕🌠

[Morllyn in reply to Jesmcd2]

Thank you ♥️

Good! My tots allowed me to sleep 🎉 My house has been a merry go round of colds, and it's so hard for them to sleep sometimes, but it seems like everyone is on the mend. We turned on the outdoor Xmas lights last night and they ran around the yard so excited to see it! I know, it's too early, and our Halloween decorations are still up 🤣🤣🤣🫣

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to kdali]

🤣😂🤣 My daughter comes out every morning since Halloween saying Merry Christmas! 🤣😂🤣 Shes going to bring out the stuff soon, l know it! 🤣🤣 My oldest is going to be here w/ my gkids for Christmas in umm omg 3 wks🙃🤣

I say keep the lights on! They are only that age once! Enjoy it! 🤗💕🌠

[kdali in reply to Jesmcd2]

Merry NovemberMas! 🎉🤣 As long as she's doing the decorating! My mom is like that, and loves decorating, so she will start digging around soon for some cheer🎄 Exactly my thoughts on it, they are the whole reason we have them. We are being kind to the neighbors though and have them turning off at 11pm. Once mornings get darker I'll change it!

[falalalala]

I am good, keeping busy with a few ink (new kind of inks which got me riled up like getting the 64 color crayon box- but only 6-lol)paintings, stained glass projects with my sis-in-laws and getting ready to start throwing clay again.

How are you?

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to falalalala]

You are keeping busy!! Im still trying to figure out where a cpl days went... 🤣😂🤣 then l remembered... l sat here stuned for a day, because my mother broke a qtip in her ear😐 Dad called the ambulance, they told him to take her to the ER to get it out. I took me the whole day to stop laughing and just being shocked... (shaking head) 🤣😂🤣🤗💕🌠

[falalalala in reply to Jesmcd2]

You made me laugh too!😜😅

I suppose it's better than having an earwig in your ear. They are jerks! I had one in my shirt and their bites felt like an electric shock.... and one more thing:

tangent /tăn′jənt/n

noun

A line, curve, or surface meeting another line, curve, or surface at a common point and sharing a common tangent line or tangent plane at that point. The trigonometric function of an acute angle in a right triangle that is the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the side adjacent to the angle. A sudden digression or change of course.

"went off on a tangent during his presentation."

😂👍😀

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to falalalala]

Word of the day? 🤣😂🤣🤗💕🌠

[falalalala in reply to Jesmcd2]

Yes.😅😅😅

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to falalalala]

Why does that deff not match the word? I am very confused, and lm gonna go off ona tangent😐🙃🤣😂🤣🤗💕🌠

[falalalala in reply to Jesmcd2]

I didn't copy it right....orrrrrrrr MS did it!

!@2$$$@ MS!😆😆😆

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to falalalala]

LMAO🤣🤣🤣MS did it!! MS always does it! 🤣🤣🤣🤗💕🌠

[falalalala in reply to Jesmcd2]

I think I'll ask ask a question about that...

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to falalalala]

You should! 🤗💕🌠

[NorasMom]

I'm good but having unidentifiable stomach issues. I'm not sure if I'm having gall bladder trouble, gastroparesis, or developing a gluten allergy. There's just no consistency, and I'm afraid to eat anything!

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to NorasMom]

Yuck! Call your dr! Let them figure it out for you! I hope you feel better soon! 🤗💕🌠

[NorasMom in reply to Jesmcd2]

Doctor? What is a doctor? Much better to just muddle along nibbling at food and hoping I don't wind up doubled over in pain at 3 am. 🤪

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to NorasMom]

🙃 Ugh! I ended up like that with my gall bladder 😢 I waited so long l had jaundice! So dont wait! 🤗💕🌠

[NorasMom in reply to Jesmcd2]

Did you get what you thought might be the MS hug but worse than anything you've ever experienced, including childbirth?

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to NorasMom]

I felt like a knife was going threw my back into my chest and heartburn at the same time 🤗💕🌠

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to NorasMom]

It would come and go and l was on a navy base in burmuda... So the was alot of "take tylonal" and l dont know, you need to see them back and forth 🤷‍♀️🤗💕🌠

[BlondiePink in reply to NorasMom]

Get to an Er. My friend had her gallbladder removed and it was gangrene. Please get some help.💕

[NorasMom in reply to BlondiePink]

Yeah, well...my grandmother's was gangrenous when it was taken out, and I just learned tonight that one of my cousins is currently hospitalized with...you guessed it. I think I should probably call the doctor on Monday. At least I haven't had any more problems this week.

[BlondiePink in reply to BlondiePink]

Well, I’m glad you’re feeling bettter, but please get it looked at asap. If it is gangrenous and bursts your going to be in worse shape.

Please take care!

[Mollyabigail in reply to NorasMom]

Gall bladder issues have different symptoms for different people. Have 'em check your gall bladder! My sisters threw up & threw up. I never vomited once. Yet, my gall bladder was working at 18%. I hope you feel better!!

[twooldcrows]

i doing okay with this crazy weather that we wake up in teens and twenties and don't get over 40 hardly ...other wize all is good ...did some ridding in the shed last couple of weeks other than that nothing exciting going on ...hahahah...should be happy about that but it is boring ...ahhaha....loves to all ...take care if winter has already hit in your town ....love and happiness...

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to twooldcrows]

Snow has not hit here yet, just cold brrr! 🤗💕🌠

[hairbrain4]

Hugs for you!!🤗 I'm still doing good. MS still in remission. I've been getting some quilting done for Christmas. A couple of grandkids are getting quilts this year. But I think there is a black hole that is swallowing up the days of the week. Every now & then a day disappears.😕

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to hairbrain4]

Right?? I keep losing days and l dont know where they are going🙁 its messing with my anxioty so much😢🤗💕🌠

[BlondiePink in reply to Jesmcd2]

Agree with both of you. Days and places go missing. Neuro claims it’s just stress but I feel it’s more than that.

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to BlondiePink]

Mine is stress😞🤣😂🤣🤗💕🌠

[hairbrain4 in reply to BlondiePink]

I guess it could be called stress as we sometimes try so hard to be "normal" or to just get through a day without, pain, falling or just trying to remember if we "did that" or not.

[hairbrain4 in reply to Jesmcd2]

I've decided not to worry about it. Its part of the adventure, as every new day presents an opportunity for a new adventure. 🤗

[BlondiePink]

Would you be kind enough to show me where my current email address is being seen and how to change it?

Thanks,

Marci

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to BlondiePink]

HiMarci, l just sent you a message 🤗💕🌠

[Cutefreckles72]

Thank you for the hug and here's one back. 🤗

I am fighting a big downslide with my depression. Went to the doctor today where she doubled my depression meds. I have some ideas to try to help myself as well. I would like to volunteer somewhere one day a week. Getting out of the house and being around other people will help.

[AquaZumbaFan in reply to mrsmike9]

That is a tough place to be in MrsMike.. I have been there.. volunteering sounds like a great idea and the increase on the meds doesn’t have to be forever.. maybe to get you through this hard patch.. sending big hugs your way 🤗

[mrsmike9 in reply to AquaZumbaFan]

Thanks. Depression runs through my mom's side of the family. Her brother committed suicide as did her son, my brother. One of my sisters has tried several times. My brother and sister are both bipolar. The rest of us "just" have depression. So I know the signs and know when to reach out. Unfortunately the depression legacy has been sent to my daughter. It's a good thing the other three are adopted as well as my granddaughter! So it will stop with my daughter.

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to mrsmike9]

You have been threw alot, lm really glad you went to see your dr🤗 I can give you some volenteering ideas from MSAA if you want?

Hang in there! We luv you!! 🤗🤗💕💕🌠
