Woke up at 6am this morning with flipping toothache. I think Ive got abit of cold in my jaw to be honest after bein out in the cold last weekend at the wartime weekend. I got up and had some painkillers, then a shower and feel much better.
Today is a new stage in this kitty's life. I start my weekly injections of Aranesp for my anaemia. I'm getting use to the strange thing's i have to do with renal failure, but its still all new and the thought of APD is still worring me. APD is the dialysis Ive decided to do when the time comes. It means I'm hooked up to a machine for 9 hours over night but I think its better than going to hospital 3 times aweek. Also I can do APD at home and no need to go into hospital and most importantly I can still travel.
Hopefully Adz will have better news from the docs today. My life has changed so much since meeting him. He's a kind soul with a very good heart. No matter what the future hold's for us I know we will be best friends for life. Adz has had a massive impact on my life, he makes me blissfully happy and my CF team have noticed how smiley and happy I am. I also seem more positive with lot's of thing's...surprising how the right person can make you a better person.
The trolley coins are selling well..I'm still waiting for a new batch but blame the post as they are on strike.
For one small kitty Ive gone through alot in my life. Ive had cataracts in both eyes and for a few months lived life as a blind person. I always remember the first things I saw when I had my cataracts done. In my hospital there are two very large paintings of flowered gardens. The colours are bright blues, whites and purples. these paintings were the first things I saw when i got my sight back. It was so bright and beautiful it took my breath away. I make a point of looking at those paintings every time I'm in that part of my hospital.
It made me realise we shouldn't take our sight for granted and we should see it as a gift.
Not long after that I went to Disneyland in Paris for New year. They had a brilliant fireworks display to welcome in the New year. As I watched the fireworks I had tears rolling down my face, not cos I was sad but because I could see the beautiful sight before me. It all sounds so simple but I was given a second chance to see which meant more than anything in the world to me.
The reason for the blindness was my diabetes and although i can see ok its far from perfect and the right eye isn't great at all.
Still I still think I'm a very lucky kitty and CF wise I'm as fit as a flea which im grateful for.
Anyhoo that's enough for now, I have to decide what colour to do my toe nails hehehe
until the next time
