Fuzzy's Romp Room

dogeyed

LOVESSA, oh Danny Boy will get tough when need be, I suppose.  Our newest doggie Smokey, he was indignant that other dogs lived nearby and barked, but we didn't know how good he'd be with strangers.  Well, someone knocked on door the other day, and that dog let out a clarion call with some woof and teeth in it, and you'd have thunk hell was on our porch!  I am fascinated by the flowers, Essa, pic was purty to gaze at, my mind cannot take in all the ins and outs of your words on flower science, but I used to love reading nutrition books and what foods do good stuff to people.  I still rely on some of that from time to time.  I guess you will grow half an acre of flowers out where you will live.  And you will not be alone.  Somehow the quiet and nature become soooo comforting.  I just told husband the other day if he died, I was sorry but either I'd sell the place or take up shooting!  Ha!  That and a trained black shepherd, which I shall name him, "Killer."  Hahahahaha.

ALL, good morning, I am always at the end of you all's day of laughter and chatter.  MISSY SASSY, you are an amazing person, so resilient, to be writing to us, and doing like a toddler, trying to crash into everything around you.  Stay in the rack, kid!!!  Quit bending over.  STOP IT.  Smile.  VEGGY, I cannot imagine how you are managing, but if I knew thee in real life, I would bring you bouquets of roses and peonies, and I'd ask an angel to sit beside you... can you feel the soft breeze of her wings?  Can you float on a cloud?  And somewhere in the distance, beyond children laughing and birds singing, do you hear some heavenly music?  I would bring these to comfort thee.  FANS AND FRIENDS, as you know, you just go thru this dang cancer routine and somehow make it thru, because life, we love it so.  GG   P.S. But also, dear ladies, may we equally curse and thrash when we stub our toe, because lest ye think I am all about wishes and dreams, my back is killing me today, and last night it was even worse, and it's only by listening to all of your whispers that I can let it go.

HEY HEY HEY!!!!!  I hope I can remember everything ... but there's one that I need to express now...

VEGGY-SHIT!!  I am in your pocket!!!  Me and all my personalities honey!!!  You just let me know what you want, ok?  You wanna luahg, cry, scream, punch something, whatever!!  I'm there with you and we will do it together!!  ALL OF US!!!  Damn damn damn.  Waiting sucks so bad and I am just sending you every single ounce of energy I have to get through this.  I love you sweetie.

DIANE:  Yup...totally seeing weird things.  It's a trip ... I see my shrink this week so I'm going to tell him what's up.

SAS:  OH YEAH!!!  You are one TOUGH MOTHER CLUCKER!!!!  I am so happy Special was there for you...we really are here for each other but it's a real treat to think we could actually meet each other.  You did good kiddo!!!  Brain Surgery???  PSSSSHHHH!!!  SAS is gunna knock you out!

So, I was out of town for the week with my youngest and her boyfriend.  I worked but they really enjoyed it!  We hung out every night and it was really special.  I started.....something....and it's going to be a monster.  I'm writing and I have a very targeted topic...and a very targeted group that could be pretty pissed.  But, on e the other hand, there is a group that would be so very happy   I'm in that group ... LOL

NANCY:  Wow...you must have really been beat up by Fluffy.  Are you putting any thing special on the wounds?  Dang...you's a tough mother clucker too!!!!

I'm half way through my book...can't remember if I told you all about this...but, it's a really big deal when I actually read a whole book!  LOL 

Sheila...I got down pretty good last week.  Kinda crazy how it happened but after a whole lotta bitchin and tears, I felt a little better...I'm trying to keep my head above water and sometimes...that hurts too.  Oh there are rooms here ANY TIME YOU NEED THEM....I'll be in the one next to you ...

I'll have to wear sunglasses in that pink "meeting room" when we all try to go.  Can you just see us in there!?!  We'll be like children, coming and going, with a speaker being drowned out by our laughter, napkins and forks falling on the floor, one of the kids always throws up, and constant visits to the restroom...  I have a doggie wound too!  At least I didn't almost lose my ear the way Nancy did.  Let's see, we had a smallish medium dog, completely innocent, and he walked me to school when I was a girl, and as we came up to the buildings, there was this huge wolf-shepherd just waiting for my dog, and as the monster lunged towards him, I stepped in between to stop him, and he bit me on the leg and I passed clean out.  Next thing I knew, I was being carried into the principal's office, and then was in the operating room with the big lights.  Two puncture wounds in my calf, and yes, they are STILL there.  Hey, weather sure been purty lately, hasn't it!?! GG

pocket buddy - I love it!

sas-schatzi

Veggy I have lost track of time-------it's Tues 300 am . It means I think your exam is over. Tests start now---Yes. Pocket buddy here. Our fear is our worst enemy. I decided a few days before Craniotomy to just give it to God. I could change nothing accept give my acceptance to outcome and work on what ever may be. That moment of giving it to God brought me a peacefulness. I haven't known in a long time. Perhaps it was helped by all the people praying for me. Whatever, I know that it helped. One step at a time. We fight , we fight. But let a part of our minds believe that we have the strengh of St Michael, the archangel that that fights the wickedness of the devil and by the power of God , he has the power to thrust that damn devil into hell.

Nancy, I said I wanted to post a response here for all to see. What I learned. The power of drugs. They had me on high dose steroids which are mostly tappered now ,plus Oxycodone.  Those two drugs for me acted like speed. Made me act like wonder woman. Sun my BP went to 161 systolic. Bad for head work. Stopped Oxycodone and went back to Fentanyl and an extra half dose of norvasc.. As soon as things evened out Bp back in acceptable range. Whew. I sure wish more research was done on Fentanyl as a post op drug. Oxycodone is just too strong. Could be just me. But cold day in hell before it passes my lips again.

Fuzzy, can't wait for the book. You mentioned multiple personalities. Well if cancer doesn't create multiple personalities in all of us, I don't what else can. We just need to hold them in control.

GG---lost track of your new thread repost when you get a chance, please. We each have so much going on right now. That it's hard to keep straight.

Special K. Now matter what you say. You are in my heart forever. I hope, I can pass it forward to someone else. Beauty is beauty. It was a beautiful thing.

Essa-----your land and surroundings beyond reality. I can just sense the smells with it too. Without the interference of all that we have done to the air. I have two newly hatch mocking birds within a few feet of the house. Hope they make it Mama and friend mockingbirds are working hard, too many raptors and large blackbirds in the area.            Back pain , yes should be checked out, but do some regular stretches before bedtime. Lay leg over side of bed for a few minutes each way till the stretch feels like the muscle tension releases then do it the opposite way. Have Dh put his weight behind the outstretched leg over side of bed  with you on you side and walk up towards the front of the bed, very slightly . pain felt versus release stop. This very good gentle strectch for lumbar and lower thoracics.

 Lay on back, put ankle across opposite knee >>take hand and slightly pull knee towards 3 o'clock. Should feel pull /stretch in butt fold. hold for 20 seconds then relax. Repeat as necessary. Don't over do. Then do opposite leg. Then just gently follow movement as if you are following the clock face.Takes care of Pyriformis muscle. With all the moving you have stressed some unusued  muscles. Plus pyriformis is particularly subject to turning , twisting, sitting  for long periods of time and you have had plenty of that in last few days.

Sleep with solid pillow underlegs with ankles supported. This takes stress off lumbar region. Head flat with soft gentle neck role . Avoid pillow under head, thoroughs off anatomical position. Think about how the chinese/japanese used to do it.

Gentle soft pillows under arms to take weight off shoulders.  If it feels good do it, causes discomfort don't. Key is gentle stretching versus hard. Remember you are already sore.

Think I spoke to everyone , will post and check, before I loss this to the nether world. Namaste sassy sheila

sas - you are a sweetie!  What are we doing awake at this hour?

Emily, I so remember that story now of your flowers in the rocks. You felt then their strength. So true. I smile when ever I see them. I hope my mind holds on to their meaning this time.

Sheila 888. I have had depression upside, downside, inside, outside. It sucks. Biggest thing I learned is to stop drinking --heavily. Big confession, but true. You may not drink, but if you do it will only fight whatever drug you are trying to help control the deep blues. A big, big change I have found recently is SLEEP, makes a huge change in my well being. It started when I added Melatonin to my sleep routine. I started low dose , but moved up to a higher dose. I also take it with Ativan at night. All with my PCP's knowledge and wonderful care. I know it's 3:11  am know , but had several naps today.  I also use prayer as a sleep aide. It gives me great comfort to think of all of you and others here on BCO that I keep in my prayers, plus my family all over the world who are praying back for me. I feel like I'm wound with this gossamer blanket with beautiful butterflies and now I can add Essa's flowers. L&H&P's sassy sheila back to my other sheila friend

Special K. Had multiple sleeps today. Just needed to check to see if everyome was doing okay. Haven't had time to work on Candy man , but the box is set aside for your DH and DS. I just want to find the story about him before I send it. L&H's sassy

Dogeyed almost forgot you sweetie, Yes I will stop trying to bend over. It's amazing how pre-programmed we are to pick things up. Worst part is ice dropping. Can't leave it. Hate to ask brother to get off the couch for that . A few have gone under the frig------LOL's. Even deep knee bending I can feel the head pressure. So, will find a different solution. Big news though another friend that  we have been talking about moving into together, is going to come for a couple of weeks to help and test what our compatibility is. We are talking very openly about our concerns on this---------which is the first big step. Talking about our fears of being alone then having a room mate. So, I see this as a very good start.

Dogeyed lost track have you got any major/ minor problems going on? Sassy

HELLO TUESDAY, Missy ♥ Sheila!  It is 7 a.m. and I am up, to a golden spring morning in NC..  

I'm thinking of VEGGY and her angels, who will lightly brush her face with wings to keep her cool today.  Whichever way, dear one, we love you just the same, and we all know what it's like, so come back for a huggy, I'll give you one in the morning.

SASSY, funny thing about losing track, for I have lost it also, and thus I too have no idea what is going on with me or anyone else!  But I am feeling fine, thank you, except back hurts as usual, and we are loving our dog, so glad to have one back in the house again.  As for ice, this is a prized possession of our dog, I can drop them all day long on the rug in front of ice-maker and he'll pick them up and carry them off to gnaw on.

And special hearts to FUZZY, wherever you are!  GG

LaurenM730

After a few days hiatus,I'm back. You have all been going through so much, and more importantly everyone else has been such huge support. Whoever needs me in their pocket, heart, whatever, I'm there for you. I'm back in a better state, mentally. Physically, not so much, but I'll get over that...



Veggy, SAS, Nancy, Special, Essa, Fuzzy, GG, everyone I have been thinking of you all strong women which has gotten me through the past week. You were all in my pocket without me asking you to hop in. So thanks, very much!



Sending lots of hugs from NY this sunny morning☀

(((((HUGS)))))

Oh, and please include me in that group hug!!!!

This is how I feel right now.

The first poke from the biopsy made me see stars.I yelled, Fuzzy almost grabbed the doctor's X, a couple of you tried to calm me down, two of you wiped my tears and I think Sas gave the doctor a piece of her mind. I survived. Thanks all. He used a lot of numbing stuff but I really felt the first one and it brough me to tears. It felt a paper punch. I screamed "ouchers!" and he gave me more. He waited until I calmed down and did it 4 more times. I'm not sure if I called him barbaric. The other lump I didn't feel a thing.  On the way home I fell asleep. My 18 year old son came with me and took over soothing me on the way home. I'm sitting here with my ice pack and sipping on tea. Thanks everyone.

Editted to add... Gentle hugs everyone. The left side is sore.

SpecialK

veggy - sorry it was painful, but so glad it is done and you are home with some tea and an ice pack.
