And So It Doesn't Go


I just had to come back to tell all how happy it made me to hear from each of you. I feel like I've known you for so long. I am not able to reply to your comments no matter what I try and I can't comment on your posts. I appreciate each of you for different reasons and will try to stay in touch. I am still lacking skills on the technological front and daily have some sort of trouble on my phone and/or Mac. Just know I think of you fondly and wish only the best. It is heartening to know that you are still out there carrying on in the midst of this crazy time. Love you!

What a difference time makes. I am caring for my husband. After 6 months in the hospital, he came home again yesterday. The trick is keeping him home and out of the hospital. He has recurring pneumonias from old cancer treatments in 2001. It's very sad a he has contracted pseudomonas bacterial  pneumonia which is rampant in hospital situations and it is becoming resistant to antibiotics. This is such a terrible time so I have to take it a day at a time. This isn't going to end well. How does one say goodbye?
