6. Home health starts tomorrow.. I can't fathom

How much ground I’ve lost in just one week. Yikes! Of course most of that time I spent in bed taking tons of God knows what kind of drugs. And me, (usually sooo careful about everything I take checking all side effects, etc )just swallowing and gobbling them all up.by the little cup full.

At 81, after hours on general anesthesia it’s no wonder I woke up on the couch(can’t get in and out of bed due to super painful shoulder) this morning thinking my husband had just been in saying we were leaving on a trip to Galena. Il in a few hours!! Of course, when I asked him about the trip a few hours later… it never happened.

I’m so out of it, physically and mentally, I really could have used a few days in a good rehab place and Tom could have used a break, too.
I belong to a State retiree plan and this is what they gave us. It happened the one time we made a huge mistake and let a republican governor in!
