And she's down.

Yesterday, I knew I was in trouble---I was getting ready for work and felt the strength leave me. I carried on, but was back home, flat on my back by ten thirty in the morning. I spent the whole dreadful day on my butt...wanting so much to get outside and walk or go to the gym and swim. I prayed that today would be better, but no such luck. If anything, I am even worse. I am downstairs in my apartment now and there is no way I can get back up those stairs, at least not right now. So, I guess working today is out of the question. I sincerely hope that the powers that be on the job continue to understand....they say they do, but I really don't know about them. This is so distressing, being this unable to do anything, and then worrying that I will be fired. I try to remember there is nothing I can do about it, so it is out of my hands, but that is little comfort.
I really think I need to see the Dr, this flare-up feels worse than the past few..when a day laying down seemed to get me on the road to being back on my feet. I am sure a round of steroids would help me, so I will be calling his office as soon as they open. GAH.

It is not even supposed to rain today....and I am going to miss this beautiful, dry day. DOUBLE GAH. (Would that be gah gah?) I'm out.

oh nooooooo! I am sooo sorry. This whole deal just isn't fair! You not only have to worry about your health, you have to worry if your employer will continue to understand. I will say some really strong prayers for you dear friend. I hope the steroids help you quickly. You also may have to think about getting an apartment all on one level so it will be easier on you. Hugs and prayers! xo

This sucks! You've had another day of rest. And maybe the steroids. I surely hope you're feeling a little better. Hugs! I'd come out your way and take care of you if I could.
