Oriental Cross Stitch
I have been so happy to have this to work on for the last couple of weeks. I some how managed to get Bronchitis and Pneumonia in my right lung. I was pretty sick for a few days but I am doing better now. The doctor gave me antibiotics and some pills to open up my Bronchial tubes. The medicine is a Steroid and it made me very shakey. I only had to take that for a week. I have an inhaler for when I need it. Also I have to use a Nebulizer 4 times a day. I am going to have to check with the doctor and see how much longer I need to use it. I have quite a bit of the medicine for it. I am breathing so much better now. I had actually been sick for awhile before I went to the doctor. I didn't realize I was sick. Donna had noticed me wheezing but I just thought I was getting tired walking up the hill with Marge. Then on the 24th of August, which was a Saturday, Donna and two ladies from the Church and I went to Silverdale for the day. We had a great time. We went clothes shopping and also went to a Quilt store and Joann Fabrics. I got some really nice fabric to make a real oriental looking quilt. My picture will probably be finished before the quilt is. Anyway, I had taken my walker and I spent so much time sitting on it that Donna suspected I wasn't feeling well. Sunday I had to go to Church because I was going to be the only one in the Library. I was light headed and wheezing but I went anyway. I stayed for Sacrament and went back to the Library for a few minutes but had to go home. Donna took me to the doctor the next day and that's when I found out I had Pneumonia.
I will be so happy when I get back to doing things. I have just been to weak to do much. I have very little patience for being sick. I am glad I got back to doing my Counted Cross Stitch. It puts me in my own world and makes the time pass more quickly. |
