One Day at a time here

One Day at a time here

hello everyone 😎

Was not sure where to write this

so, I have started a new thread

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

Re: One Day at a time here

Yes my mind is saying do a little bit more

But my body is saying that's enough

Have a cupp now

@Dimity

So I think I will listen to my body

The specialist said my hearing is very bad but not bad enough for cholear implants yet

But they want me to apply for NDIS

Re: One Day at a time here

I think applying for NDIS is a good idea @Shaz51 . If you have supports in place it could make it easier for Mr shaz further down the track.

Mr shaz said it looks like his meds not working tonight either to help him sleep again

Re: One Day at a time here

Oh dear @Shaz51 that's hard for both of you.

Re: One Day at a time here

I hope you managed to get some sleep last night @Shaz51 . And you're OK after all that weeding.

I spent the morning at craft group. Back to chores this afternoon.

Hello @Dimity

I slept a bit better last night , up at 5.30am

No weeding today , a bit sore , glad I listened to my body yesterday

Hubby did not sleep well again , he said all noises are extra loud

And he tried to rest this afternoon

How was your morning with craft

In response to: Re: One Day at a time here

Re: One Day at a time here

Glad you got some sleep @Shaz51 . I feel for Mr shaz. I wonder if ear plugs might help? I remember he didn't want the stronger doses of sleep meds a while back.

Craft was OK. A friendly lady gave me some pieces of hoya to strike. She said it originally came from her grandmother. The people I sit near usually exclude me from conversations but the people on the minibus are nice.

I have some geranium cuttings to put in pots too.

Re: One Day at a time here

ear plugs might help? -- he wears them but he says he can feel his heartbeat 😂

@Dimity

he has been taking half a tablet each night , but he had to have the other half through the night last night

glad your morning was ok except for not being involved in the conversations

glad the people on the minibus are nice.xx

have some geranium cuttings to put in pots too.--- awww lovely , do you know what kind they will look like

on the weekend we took MIL to a birthday lunch of her SIL

hubby sat us right at the end of the long table so he did not have to interact very much , ready to jump up and go back home

But 😂😂 his cousins came and sat with us

@Jynx , @tyme

In response to: Re: One Day at a time here

Re: One Day at a time here

That was nice of his cousins @Shaz51 .

He sounds quite stressed at the moment (I can relate).

I guess with all the rain it's hard to go on drives and take photos. Has he thought any more about setting up a studio?

I've very glad you paced yourself with the weeding.

The geraniums have a star shaped leaf with a brown circle and salmon coloured flowers with thin petals. Not sure if they're a heritage variety but I'm quite fond of them.

In response to: Re: One Day at a time here

Re: One Day at a time here

Love to see photos later @Dimity

The spare bedroom is his studio

We were going to go for another big drive in-between appointments but the price of petal has gone up
