Somebody ..... Help me!!
It has been far to long since I have blogged. Since I last Blogged our daughter in law went through Ankle surgery and our Grandson Robert has had a total knee reconstruction. I spent 6 weeks in Arizona and the same friend I went to visit has been here since a few days prior to Thanksgiving. My friend lost her job within a week of my arrival in Arizona and to say the least she has not been the same since. She suffers from Fibromyalgia. Apparently stress is very difficult for those who have Fibrmyalgia. I have never in all my life been through a more difficult time of life as she has learned to play the invalid role marvelously. Its like she has totally given up and is able really to do less than even myself. I am sure that Fibrmyalgia is not a comfortable thing to have but I am also sure that the loss of her job has more to do with this than the actual discomforts of the Fibromyalgia. She can do anything she wants to do but the depression leaves her unable to care for most of her her more basic needs. I have honestly tried to do all required and keep up however I had no idea that Fibromyalgio could be so debilitating! . I had to go to the Dr to see why I have been getting the Dizzyness lately and my blood pressure was 146 / 164 needless to say that threw up all the alarm bells. I have felt very much like I am going to topple over and exhaustion is the understatement so ..... I will be home for the foreseeable future. My friend left here yesterday without much warning. I hope she is not upset with me . Emotionaly I feel so inadequate, but I have to choose to take care of me. Bill put his food down so I am here worrying just how my friend is going to manage?!?!? The rotten side of all that is feeling like I am really letting down a friend when she needs me. I sure could use some cheering up. God Bless all of you as we get ready to enter a new year. May it be one of Hope and Joy and blessings abounding for you and all those you love. May we meet each challenge and goal that we set. Large or small Love you one and All Karen
