On the one ...It is such a hard line to toe, Rochel. On the one hand, they know I am having surgery soon, and they completely understand all that that entails for me physically and emotionally. I feel Shifra already more clingy in anticipation. I want to give and give now because it's gonna be tough here later. On the other hand, I have to take care of myself. Going into surgery worn-out like a dishrag isn't a good idea, either.<br />I will try to pull back a little. This is all so stressful. Maybe if the question in the back of my head would quiet down, I'd be a bit more relaxed... that question being: am I gonna die? How do I deal with that question? I mean for my soul, not my brain...Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04944081107347417231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464163302553827777.post-33178409047852210072012-01-16T22:34:35.232+02:002012-01-16T22:34:35.232+02:00Get through this, and there is great hope for an i...Get through this, and there is great hope for an improved quality of life afterward.

I go to my family doctor health clinic ...Hi Sandra,<br />I go to my family doctor health clinic for blood/urine tests. The ultrasound is in another place, the x-rays at yet another place.<br />Then next week, also, I have to see the nephrologist (kidneys)-- in the hospital.<br /><br />Also let's not forget that I still have four kids to take care of-- Shifra needs an optometrist check, Dov is getting braces put on and he needs *three* different appointments for that. And I'll need to give him a lot of attention because of that-- it'll hurt, he won't like how he'll look, it'll take lots of loving care and patience, which I am so short on these days. I am trying so hard for them.<br /><br />It *is* frustrating, tiring, and overwhelming. All of that.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04944081107347417231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464163302553827777.post-37576592956780279272012-01-16T00:58:36.540+02:002012-01-16T00:58:36.540+02:00Really, is there not a reason why you can't go...Really, is there not a reason why you can't go into one doctor and have all the tests ordered? This sounds so frustrating and overwhelming. I can understand why you would like to go to a recovery facility.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09576506420482747439noreply@blogger.com
