Monday, November 7 ~ Friends took away my pain
The last few days have been bad. Earth moving spasms, induced sweat, drenched, hot, sharp and stabbing breaths took while sobbing, aches all consuming, nauseating pain. They rocked my body until finally exhausted and relieved, surrenders to soothing massage, hot showers, deep full breathing, foggy, drugged sleep and finally, funny You Tube videos of really cute cats. Mew came to see me and drank wine, while I didn’t. She made me laugh. Lisa came and brought me “Spa-On-A-Tray” complete with spa-doll, spa-yoga towel, spa-soap, spa-candy. Crystal brought me flowers. They were lovely. Mad brought me Anne Bancroft in 84 Charing Cross Road. Now I want big round reading glasses like Ms. Bancroft’s. Grace delivered flowers. They were beautiful.
The Autumn days pass by. Hopefully, with each one better then the last.

So sorry to hear it has been such a rough ride – I really wish all of this was easy.
Hope you feel good soon. Thinking of you,

I’m here with you Carmen in thoughts and well wishes. I’m sorry to hear that you are experiencing delayed pain, but keep on staying positive as you have and continue to write. This will help the your emotional healing after your body has healed. You’re a natural writer… maybe you should consider a book idea?? We can come see you on Oprah:)
Hugs,
Linda

Hey Carmen!
Are you feeling better than last week-end? I hope so! Can you eat without experiencing pain after? And if so, what?

Are you ambulatory? If you are glittering tomorrow, let me know if you need a ride. I will probably leave the house around 7:30…
