Why Need Negatives?

For quite some time now, I have been going to the hospital. Taking those two week visits that just put you in the best moods! There are actually good things that come from being cooped up for two long weeks.

Positives:
Someone waits on you 24/7
Comfortable Bed
Temperature Control (big deal)
Also, television control
No ROOMMATES!
Food, when you want it
Get better by doing nothing
Someone sets up your treatments
People come visit (some that you haven't seen in a while)
Cards and Balloons and Flowers :)

Need I type more? I mean, yeah there definitely are negatives to going to the hospital but why dwell on the negatives? I mean, no matter what you are going to be stuck there anyway so think of the good things. I actually would rather be there sometimes than laying up in bed at home feeling miserable.

That's just my two cents.


What I'm Thankful for Today:
Cell Phone- I know this is an awful thing to be thankful for and 10 (maybe less than that) years ago nobody would have thought about this. But, let's be real here. My cell phone goes with me everywhere, and that is not an exaggeration. I text wayy too much, I kinda think I might be obsessed. I can call someone if I have car problems, which happens too frequently for me. I don't know, I am just thankful that I have this little device to cure my boredom.

Gettin' Drunk Off Ensure

I just pretty much straight up injected 4 cans of Ensure into my feeding tube, ugh. It seriously made me sick and overheated! Mom came to visit today, but I slept most of the day so it wasn't much fun for her probably. But, she did bring me some lunch, so that was nice. I can't get to sleep, but I haven't really tried either. Today was just kinda one of those nights where I didn't feel good at all. I talked to an old friend from high school (I make it sound as if I graduated 10 years ago). But I hadn't seen her since the summer and it was nice catching up.

What I'm Thankful for Today:

God- I have been through so much in the past 19 years and God has helped me get through it all. I am holding his hand through this journey of life and I'm not lettting go. I believe that God has a special plan for me. I am just living my life, making the best decisions that I can, and letting God show me which way to go. I know that one day I will have fulfilled all he has wanted me to.

College Tuesday's

My Schedule for every Tuesday and Thursday:

8:00-9:00 Anatomy and Physiology Study Period

9:30-10:45 Anatomy and Physiology

11:00-12:15 Communications

4:30-5:00 Dosage Calculations

So, from 12:30-4:00, I usually go home and nap. I go to a community college and my drive is 17 minutes long. It is pretty boring too, but sometimes very scenic. Today, I decided to stay at college all day in case of a hospitalization later on in the week. Which, if I have to call my dr tomorrow, that will most likely happen. So, I will be studying A&P all week (the only class that I don't have above a 95% in, ugh!).

Enough about me, I just want to request a special prayer for Dalton. He is still in the hospital and has been running a fever. He also just found out today that he has a yeast infection in his port-a-cath, which isn't a good thing. So, let's just hope he gets better soon!
