Making the Thread Dance

Well, it's been an interesting week...

Today, after having had a cough and feeling terrible for a week, the doc tells me I have pneumonia. So I got some strong drugs and told to rest. (Mind you, taking codeine cough syrup tends to make you have a restful disposition.) But to the minute after I took the first dose, I started coughing again. But I already feel better because the fever is gone. What a blessing.

    oh Patty! pneumonia is not for sissy people!!!

    Healing thoughts headed your way immediately!

    Do take care of yourself. Get back to a normal activity level slowly. Rest when you need to, even if you don't think you can. Let others help out if you can, and please, please get well fast!!!!

    definitely not to be taken lightly. My 10 year old had a virus and short lived fever, made an appointment later in the week because of a nagging 'polite' cough. Yikes.... pneumonia! So do take care and heal completely, no relapses allowed :)

    Pamper yourself. You've earned it.

    How are you doing? Are you recovering yet? The cough and tiredness going away? Thinking of you.

    Thanks everyone! I am getting back to normal (whatever that is !). Last Sunday I got a case of thrush caused by the steroid they gave me to help clear my lungs. That was fun (HA!).

    I am taking it easy as I get back to normal and regain my strength.
