I've Got The Best News Ever!!!

Well,I've got the best news ever for you tonight!I'm home from the hospital & rehabilitation center now!I'm still on the road to recovery,though!I've got a doctor's appointment on Monday afternoon for a new primary care doctor!After that,I've got home care coming for my therapy,etc.I went from being in a wheelchair to a walker to a 4 wheeled walker in less than a month.Wow,huh?Boy,I'll say!I did need some help when I was in a wheelchair & some help when I didn't!The people at the Rocky Mountain Rehabilitation center really gave me the help that I needed & at the hospital as well.One of my doctors named Kelly Beams recommended that I should get up & walk & that's what I did.Thank you,Dr.Beams for what you did for me!I certainly appreciate it!While I was at Rocky Mountain Care,I was cared for by a person named Kyle Toone & he was the best & he still is!My occupational therapist was a person by the name of Robert York & I would always surprise him by being up before the rooster started to crow in the mornings!I was released on the same day as 3 other ladies named:Joyce Nielsen,Delores Warr & some other lady's name that I can't remember who went to live over at Cottage Glen just right over where my brother & I had lived!Well,I'll post more later!

It's Been A While Since I've Blogged!

Well,it's like it says in regards to my blog or title that it's been a while since I've either blogged or posted because I've been in the hospital for about a week(or thereabouts)with acute pancreatitis & I couldn't eat or drink for a few days because of it!It's the worst thing anyone could ever ask for besides the 24 hour flu bug.It eats at you until you stop throwing up.I had to have an IV in my arm for anti-nausea,pain & some other type of medication.My brother had to take me to the hospital & I was in for about a week.I'm out now & am receiveing treatment & therapy right now.The veins in my left arm were no good & they tried to establish an IV for me.I'm in the Rocky Mountain Care center in Tooele right now.My lipase levels were through the roof when I was admitted & I don't really know what they are now.I was put on a liquid diet at first when I could eat & then I got onto a diet that I could tolerate.Well,enough of that!I'll either blog or post more soon!

This Has Been The Most Shocking Week Ever For Me!!!

Well,it's like it says in regards to the title of my post or blog that this has been the most shocking week for me ever!I had just found out that my neighbors to the east of me had just lost their daughter,Allysa Dalton.She was the most beautiful,friendly person anyone could ever get to know or love.She'll be missed by a lot of people(especially her parents)who knew & loved her.Every time I was outside,I would get the chance to see her leave the house to go somewhere either with or without somebody & just enjoy seeing her from my front porch while sitting in my camp chair(folding)at times.She was a very beautiful spirit here on earth as she will be in heaven.Her family's in my prayers every night & even after I move because her parents are such dear friends & neighbors of mine & always will be.They've got services scheduled for her next week & I may or may not be able to go,but I'll certainly try.If you are reading this post or blog,please keep her family in your prayers so that they can feel comforted everyday & night that she's gone.Last night,there was a candlelight vigil held for her at one of the parks nearby & there were some words(kind)that were said about her by her mom & one other person as well as a song being sung entitled "Consider the lilies!"Well,I'll either blog or post more soon!

This Has Been The Best Week Ever!!!

Well,it's like it says in regards to the title of my blog or post that this is the best week ever for me.I had found out that one of my dear friends had lost a family member from being hit by a truck last Wednesday morning while on his way to work in Lehi,Utah,so what I had done was I had taken her & her family something sweet to eat because she's done things for me & I just felt like she needed to be cheered up.She's such a good friend to me & I can never forget her for being that to me.Her name's Deedra Knudsen Hinds & she's the best friend anyone could ever ask for!She'll still be my friend although I'm moving to another portion of Tooele.We'll still be able to see each other from time to time!Well,I'll either blog or post more soon!

Today Was A Very Beautiful Day!!!

Well,it's like it says in regards to the title of my post or blog that today was a very beautiful day.I did what I always do everyday & got out for my walk.Getting out for some fresh air does me some good & it keeps me healthy.Just the other day I got to see the new house that I'll be living in soon & when I had taken a picture of it & posted it,I got a little melancholy because I'm leaving some good friends soon,but I'm sure that I'll be making some new ones as well.There's a song that I remember from an old phone commercial that's entitled "Old Friends" & one old friend picks up the phone & dials the old friend's number & the old friend answers the phone & says "Hello!"That commercial always made me cry sometimes because it reminded me of my Mom's Mother(my grandma)& how she lived far away from us.My friends in the Overlake area won't be so far & I can always give them a call.Well,I'll either blog or post more soon!

Today Is Such A Beautiful Day!!!

Well,it's like it says in regards to the title of my blog or post that today is a beautiful day outside.Soon,we'll see the flowers start to blossom & then spring will be coming just right around the corner.We already have the warm temperatures outside & no snow on the ground.Pretty soon we'll have the rain showers hit us as well as the heat so that we can get ready for the summer months ahead.Last 4th of July,I went over to my bishop's neighborhood to celebrate it as well as have a barbeque dinner with some neighbors & I ended up singing karaoke & the song that I had sung was:"Elvira"by The Oak Ridge Boys & it's been my favorite song ever since before it became a karaoke song.Maybe later I'll get out for a walk!Who knows?Well,I'll either blog or post more soon!
