Mental Vacation


Who needs a vacation? Distraught at the thought of more surgery. My knee is healing well but my pain level has been increasing. I saw my pain specialist yesterday and found out that my pain pump "which is inserted in my abdomen" isn't working correctly. The catheter leading to my spine is kinked and will require another back surgery to fix it.

The last catheter revision required 2 surgeries, horribly painful tests and months of spinal headaches due to csf leakage. Still waiting for chest ct and results. I've been hanging by a thread which got clipped yesterday. When your financially broke, energy is drained,your spirit is crushed and you feel like a caged animal; STOP!

The only thing left to do is to take a mental vacation. As of 3:00 today I will be on vacation until Monday at 6:00 a.m. This is be kind to Carol weekend. I'm going to forget about life and turn off my phone, bathe in the warm sun by the pool, sip on drinks, listen to music, short hike in the mountains, hair cut, facial, manicure. If it doesn't feel good I'm not going to do it or think about it. You are welcome to join me.
