Things have been really hard for me lately. My physical
pain has been at it's worse this past week or so. Thankfully
my MD will allow me to take more of the pain meds, but it
is still really hard to cope.
I've done some coloring and stamping of cards as well as
doing an inventory for what I'm selling in the fall at a
bazaar my mom is involved in.  So I've done a few con-
structive things.  I've also worked on a card order that
I recieved...a little at a time.
In addition, the sore that I had on my hip has a staph infection
and the MD thinks that the other topical infections that I
have are also staph.  It adds to the pain that I have.  What
is frustrating is that my pain is so bad that it is hard to
stand long enough to do anything...including drying myself
offf after a shower. Of course I manage, but it sure does
hurt!
It's left me discouraged and wanting the physical pain to
ease so I can cope with the emotional stuff a little better.
I've also spent a few days sorting buttons which has helped
some...and a lot of lieing down and reading.  It is so
hard!  And all the meds really stress my finances, but
thankfully I was able to borrow what I needed yesterday
and babysitting today (ages 6 & 8) will give me money for
my gas.
Anyway, prayers and encouragement is requested!
Wendy
