My Life with Multiple Sclerosis 092822

Hello, Possuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuums!

Coming to you from the Celebrity Suites of the Wyndemere Condominiums on Turtle Creek in Dallas, Texas. Today is Wednesday, September 28. It’s going to be a mostly sunny Fall day in Dallas today with a high of 89.

Happy Birthday to:

Joey Rebollar Jr.
Tom Blackmon

Happy Hump Day. We made it half way through the week. It’s also my last day in Covid Confinement. I can go out into the world or have people over. I may need to socialize myself slowly. It feels like a lifetime since I have seen anyone. Sure, people have called to check on me, and I am grateful, thankful and blessed for that, but I want to see someone that is NOT on a television or a Teams meeting.

Hurricane Ian is about to bash Florida big-time. I hope they all got out of the path or at least to higher ground. Prayers to all of them. While I don’t wish harm on any of them, I find hurricanes absolutely fascinating. But that’s another story, never mind, anyway…

I thought I was going to have an entire week with no hospitals, doctors and whatnot, but I have to go into the hospital and do some bloodwork on Friday to see if my lymphocytes are high enough for me to have chemotherapy next week and then on Monday I have to do more blood work before my PLEX appointment to check my fibrinogen levels to see if I need real plasma or FFP (fresh frozen plasma) or get the synthetic stuff.

Yes, indeed - nothing but the glamorous life for me - LOL. I shouldn’t say that. I do have a very good life filled with the most amazing, loving and caring people. Sometimes, though, I think having a chronic disease is like having a full time job. But instead of going to meetings and writing reports and stopping by the typing pool for the latest gossip, you lie in bed or sit in a wheel chair and get poked and prodded and tested and studied and examined. But it doesn’t stop there - it pulls in your family and friends and it can be exhausting. No, it is exhausting. Sorry - I guess I am in the mood to vent today.

It’s too bad that I don’t have the Real Housewives of Dubai to cheer me up. Season one is over. I suppose if I want to see cat fights, bitchiness, prevention, and over-the-top, snotty behavior, I will just have to tune in to The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City starting tonight. It’s just awful and they are so petty. One of them is headed to prison for a stint and that’s just awful and I take absolutely no pleasure in that. But I do find it all COMPLETELY entertaining.

OK - just a few meetings at work but lots of work to do before I can enjoy the housewives.

What are your plans for Hump Day?
Anyhoozle, I wish you and everyone around you a SPECTACULAR day. Do everything today with kindness in your heart. The world is full of kind people. If you can’t find one, be one! Peace, Love and Blessings to you all. -AJ
