Really? Ok bring it on..

Ok, let's do this:

So as you all know, I'm happily home from the hospital! I was very VERY excited to get to come home. :-) Nothing better than being in my own house again! Having my own bed, food, and SHOWER!

I've been doing pretty good. Today, I was a lil tired, shaky, and had a tiny fever this evening. But that is probably from doing too much. I'm not working yet, but I went to my classes, and I'm trying to get my errands/ house stuff done. So overall, it has been going really well. My mouth is completely healed, my finger (that got the virus in it), is getting better. It reminds me of Dumbledore's hand...LOL. So life seems to be falling back into place :-)

But... apparently, the surgery that had to be cancelled due to my getting sick has been rescheduled for this coming Tues. Which means I can't get sick between now and then!! To be honest, I wanted to put it off til May. I was hoping to not miss classes and be able to go back to work. Let's face it, just because I can't work, doesn't mean the bills stop coming.

But, I talked it over with my Doc. And with my being a waittress and doing a lot of dancing in the musical, it could get worse. Right now, it isn't really a problem. It doesnt really hurt much, but with my fast paced activites/job, it will just get worse. Then I will have to have surgery, but it would be an emergency surgery. So, I guess it makes sense to do it now. So Doc/Surgeon wins.

I'm not looking forward to not being able to work for another week, or not being able to dance either. I'm not sure how it will work with my missing classes next week, or for that matter... I'm pretty sure my real estate books alone are over the weight limit I will be "allowed" to carry afterwards.

But somehow, it will work out. It always does. My professors are really cool and I'm getting pretty solid A's in all my classes, so it should be okay. My bosses have been really understanding about everything, they both know I have CF (thank goodness). And I will still be able to go to rehearsals and watch the dances, I'm a quick learner with dancing, so I should be fine. I will just be an extra/ dancer in the numbers I already learned and any others I can still learn.  As far as my bills, thats why I have a savings account.  I never know when CF will decide to interupt my life, so I'm always prepared!

At least it will be done with and I won't have to worry about it anymore. I've got a plan, I have told everyone. So Tuesday hurry up and come, so I can get this over with and get back to my life! :-)

  1. That's too bad to hear that the surgery is going to be so soon, but at least you can get everything over at once. Plus this way you won't still be recovering from surgery at the CF walk in June.

How Fostering and CF impact my work

I haven't been on my blog much.... I think that is because most of my blogging is currently been done on Health Union's Cystic-Fibrosis.com (here is link to all my posts on their site: https://cystic-fibrosis.com/members/cherizkunkel/ ). I decided last fall to step away from real estate after 3 years in the business. It was tough to say good-bye, especially since I had tripled my volume and business in the last year. However, I didn't have time to add any new clients; I kept saying, maybe next week, next month I can fit more work into my schedule. The truth is fostering takes a lot of time. We have between 5-8 monthly visits at the agency, 1 court ate a month, 2 home visits from the caseworker a month, plus e have 2-3 doctors/specialist appointments for our current kiddo. We have lots of paperwork we fill out, gas mile logs, receipts to add, and more! Our kiddo also participates in gymnastics and dance two nights a week. We go to a fosterparent support group with our kid ...

First, of all since I was admitted last Thurirsday morning, I have gained weight. 1. because I don't have time to make food and eat at home as much as I need and 2.

This is the highest I have been in a very long time. To check out my weight and lung functions changes over the years click here- Clinic-My Health Page! Only, down side...I need to buy new pants and running shorts, none of them fit me...I'm cheap and picky with clothes..so it may take a while. However, I'm sure a trip to Delia's will change my mind. Ps. for some reason Delia's usually fit, when others are t...
