days of haze

Just a brief note to say we are alive and kicking. Lots to share from the past few weeks, but at the moment I am a little ….incapacitated. I have been ordered to bed for 8 days now, with sciatica and a pulled hamstring. Tomorrow is supposed to be by release date, but it isn’t looking too promising. Thank the Lord that Holly is still around to help out. She is being kept very busy!!!!!

FYI, I went to the Emergency room is Hospital Chiriqui, had an injection, picked up meds, including 4 more injections, and paid a whopping $26 total. That includes the attending physician, the ER room, the meds, the consult, everything. Unfortunately, these two specific injuries do not heal fast. I have heard anywhere from 2 months to a year is needed for full recovery. I am just praying for some pain relief at this point.

By the way, the injections I bought to take home have all been administered by my dear husband, who has some experience worming cattle and goats :). So far, so good. I think he has more pain from the injections than I do. He is a trooper!

Will write more as soon as possible. But it is tough to write from a lying position, and sitting hurts too!

It’s all good!
