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! :-)

    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 ...

Oh the Joys of a Colonoscopy!

Colonoscopy, Fun: As you may remember from reading my October Posts (  Oct Post #1   &  2nd Oct Post ) that I was admitted a second time that month for Gastrointestinal issues. I was having stomach cramps and what was believed to be Antibiotic Associated Diarrhea. However, CT scan revealed my colon and intestines were inflammed.  After having a rough 2 months of GI issues, and cuting out most food (diary, meat, grease, carbonated beverages, and sugar). I finally am getting a Colonoscopy to see what in the world is going on! I'm been taking Probiotics, was on meds for both C. diff and AAD. I even added driking Kefir to add to the probiotics and good bacteria.  Only now am I seeing any changes, less stomach aches, etc. I add a 1/2 cup pf the Kefir to my smoothie, its not bad -yum! I really reccommend it and Probiotics (so talk to your doctor about it), it could really help you out! Read about Colonoscopies here! So I'm glad to be g...

What Else Should I Do?

Need Some Feedback.       May has almost come to an end. I love May, nice weather, summer starts, AND its Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month! A lot of the CF walks are in may and its a great time to raise funds and awareness for CF! However, I'm also excited that it will be June soon! June 28th is the Princeton Cystic Fibrosis Walk. I've helped organize other events in the past. Whether for school or other non-profits I've volunteered at, but this CF Walk is a little different. It is the first time, I've put together a City event. Or put together an event that is so near and dear to my heart. I'm so thankful that I had so many people sign up so quickly. Pretty much everyone family member I have on my mom's side signed up the first day. And I've have had some family and friends help me (giving me ideas, helping me recruit, etc). But, Its the first time I didn't have a committee or team behind me to help execute the ideas and actually plan the event. I lo...
