Sorry about ds

. Hopefully, it will get him straightened out!! It's better to learn when they are young!

When do you go back to the doctor?

I just went Wendesday and they were happy with my weight loss and Im in smaller clothes. But my ancles are swelling so dont know what weight really is. But most time feel energetic but my legs still acting up but have joined a low excercise at work a lot of stretching and it will help firm me up I hope. The doc doesnt want me to lose too fast. I will see her in 6 weeks so hope its still good. Also daughter and I will swim Tuesday and Thursday.
Love, Kelsey

Sorry about your SIL's dad

Yay on moving the ticker!

Happy Easter!

Tuesday went to funeral and what a wonderful blessing. He was very strong in prayer life and was just begginning to come up with some new things he felt important the church will go on with this. Funny memories later and his children that are biologicaly related are so musical. I hope my new grandchild will inherit this. My daughter has a beautiful voice but doesnt use it but she also is very musically talented with instuments. Out of the 3 sons who he took to church anytime he could. Only my son in law
is right with Christ. I think Pauls oldest brother is getting closer, he wrote a poem about what just happened and his mom asked him to sing it at funeral, and it was wonderful. The other son says hes an athiest, but God has been working on him. The family could use prayer.

Then Wednesday took Dennis to have catheter changed and had them look at his stomach. They put him in hospital for a 23 hour watch he was impacted. Believe it or not he got out in that time. But the treatment this time stunk.

They said his problem is not drinking enough water. so I went in the evening to visit and he was laying in bed after an enema. They changed his pads a couple times while we were there and so I finally asked cant he be on a camode it would come out better. DUHHHHHHH what an idea so they went to get it. I asked Dennis if he had had a lot of water and he said yes a lot, I asked because there was no pitcher in his room. Found out next morning they had never given him water except with pills
We left him on commode.

daughter and I showed up around 10:30 in morning and he was sweating and out of it so we went to nurses station to ask them if they had ckd his sugars recently. he was diferetic and his sugars were 40. Thank God we went there. Then after they gave him sugar and food they were supposed to ck sugars again in 15 min. In 20 min the girl came in with machine and started at first bed. Then about 15 min later I realized she never came to Dennis side of room. She took the other mans sugars instead of Dennis another DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. I hope they send me a paper to fill out about our experience.

When we got there they said they wanted to keep him another night so when it was his lunch time we went shopping. I bought Roxane 200 dollars of maternity clothes. Mainly summer ones. Then went and bought me a new mower, because old one wasnt starting and last year had so much trouble. Then went to target to get Dennis some room spray and a stuffed animal. My son called me and said that dad could come home after all so we hurried back and sat fo an hour and a half waiting for papers to be signed sheesh. Then we got him out to car and here is this big lawn mower box taking up back of van. We thought he was staying so we bought one there. We got it situated and We are home and its time for bed. What a week.

Love, Kelsey

. I'm glad he's home where he will be taken care of!

I hope they send me a paper to fill out about our experience.

Hope things are more settled today...

well my life goes on. Went to circus Friday night in red cross van. Great circus but snowed while we were there. It was 20 miles North to get back home and there was 4-6 inches of very wet snow when we got home. Driver pulled up in ladies yard hopeing it would be easier to walk. Well we got stuck and tried real hard to get out but had to get someon with a truck to pull us out and then while it was pulling it through a rock into back window and it shattered. We all were safe and its been fixed so it worked out. Then Today I decided to take our disabled friend to potluck while my kids worked. Well it ended up we couldnt get the lift to work all the time but we got Chris down there and I drove redcross van with Dennis in it. Well his legs gave out while he was getting out and I twisted my back keeping him from falling to ground. Called my son in law at work to see if he could fix lift and come to find out we just didnt have door open enough. When we got home I worked so hard trying to hold Chris head down that I didnt notice back heel was off. Finally got it all taken care of. It can just be so hilarius my life. But good news will move my ticker Im down to 320 41 pounds.

love Kelsey

Hi Kelsey! Way to go with the moving ticker! Your positive attitude, even with all the stuff in your life, is an inspiration to me. You are one terrific woman!!

I feel like its been forever since I have had a chance to write. Just seems after Dennis came home I have just been busy. He came home Friday and since then he has not pooped except on Monday when I did an enema. So today went for ck and had some stitches removed and they said to start him on milk of magnesia and to continue the suppositories. May try some prunes too. I seem to have a flu or something and all I do is go. Just doesnt seem right. I had the last 2 nights looking for 2 papers from 2005. Brians tax form and Dennis paper that says what he made a month in 2005. Today I got a paper from VA and then came home and redid his 2005 taxes luckily I found his W2's. They need all this because they put a hold on his collage funding because they needed this before his spring classes. They need to be paid before he can enroll in summer. I dont know how we are always mixed up. Driving back and forth made my weight go back up a little but its coming back down. Ate out so much.
I want my time back where I could visit your journals I have no idea whats going on in your lives.
Love, Kelsey

Don't worry about us...take care of yourself!

Glad you found those papers!!!
