If someone were to tell me in April, that in 6 months I would be laying in bed for a whole week doing nothing...no cooking, no dishes, no laundry, no cleaning and watching HGTV all day I would have thought they were describing a relaxing vacation. With that comes a price to pay...every inch of my body hurts. My bones will ache...even when my daughters want to give me a hug. I would be nauseous 24/7. Certain smells will make me gag. Eating food makes me cringe. Walking upstairs will be a challenge. Even though I go to bed at 7:30, I wake up every 2 hours with some kind of pain. Sometimes I close my eyes and imagine myself on some kind of tropical island. I am bathing in the warm sun with a fruity drink in hand and a great book in the other.
Needless to say, HGTV has become my new best friend. I remember Linda saying that I would get hooked. There's no real story line to follow so if you fall asleep and wake up later, I don't miss much!
Today I feel about 20% better than I have all week! Tomorrow is another treatment!
