One Day at a time here

One Day at a time here

hello everyone 😎

Was not sure where to write this

thank you @Oaktree , @Ru-bee for thinking of me today 😍

my results from the doctor was not really good

  • my Kidney function have decreased to 17%
  • my Liver and diabetes levels are up
  • I have Osteoporosis which i will need medication as my bone density has decreased because of the kidney disease
  • they believe that the Liver function is up because of the kidney disease
  • Kidney disease affects every part of your body
  • scan also shows the tinny of my kidney

Hey there @Shaz51,

Sounds like it's been a real rollercoaster the last couple of days, with Mr. Shaz not coping with the Mother's day lunch, your phone breaking, and then getting fixed!

Mother's day can bring up so many different emotions for everyone, I hope that no matter how the day went, that you were able to take some time to prioritise yourself and your mental health 🏵

You've been such a trooper supporting Mr. Shaz, so please don't forget to share some of that compassion to yourself too!

Take care!

Re: One Day at a time here

Sorry to hear things have been so up and down for you @Shaz51. I'm glad you got your phone sorted out. All the best for getting Mr Shaz to a more comfortable place. Alos all the best with your physical health battles.

You are an amazingly resilient and resourceful person.

It's been an honour to have known you in some way.

I'm not on the forums hardly at all now and I'll probably make my last posts today.

So all the best and thanks for chatting and trying to involve me in discussions (tagging me and asking me how things are etc).

Hello lovely,

Just checking in.

What are you finding hard about your days at the moment? I know you have a lot going on, so I am wondering if we can help to make things feel a bit easier! 🫶 @Shaz51

Re: One Day at a time here

@AuntGlow , thanks for checking in with me

The biggest thing is the tiredness, aches and pains caused by my kidney disease stage 4 and other complications of it

The second one is to be supportive as much as I can to my husband and family through the illnesses

Mr shaz has been on full doses medication for 2 weeks now and today was a very nice day , hoping this continues @MindfulMango , @tyme , @Chasingsunsets , @Dimity
