[QUAD-L] Did you ever have one of those days ...
Hi All, I don't know if y'all remember I was stuck in bed all of July August with a bed sore? Well, it returned a little over a week ago after just building up my endurance. I went to my wound center, saw the Doctor after waiting over one hour, he said it is superficial but stay off it and come back to see him in 2 weeks - I'm treating it with Regranix. Then immediately after that I had to go to my GP because I have a UTI and I had t wait for him for an hour. Monday's are the worst day t see Doctors. OH, I forgot to tell you my van wouldn't start when I started out my day. All in all i was up in my chair 6 and. Half hours after being in bed for a week. I'm still tired. Bobbie Sent from my iPad

I bet you got a bit dizzy for awhile. And I hope your chair reclines? Greg Hi All, I don't know if y'all remember I was stuck in bed all of July August with a bed sore?

Re: [QUAD-L] Did you ever have one of those days ...
It's been one of THOSE YEARS for me! Been stuck in bed since last year. 6 SOLID months in bed 24/7 March-August 1st. I didn't stay off of it AS SOON as it began (April 2009) so 18 months later ... am only up 3 hrs a day to this day. If I DON'T stay off it ... it'll * EXTEND* my time in bed and cause further trouble. My van broke on a Saturday when I had a full seating eval scheduled that Monday! Had to cancel the eval but hope to make it to my rescheduled appnt on Monday Nov 1st!!! Life sux so much!

At times things sure can get us down Lori...sometimes it is hard to take it a day at a time and be positive, I'm still recovering from my pressure sore too, but wife say's she thinks it is really getting well. My van lift quit working about 3 weeks ago and they fixed it wrong by replacing the part wrong and wife had to reschedule to have them put the part in correctly ( springs were put in improperly on the replacement parts ) Then this past week it broke down for an entire week because the clutch on the air conditioning froze up causing it not to start (don't need air conditioning now but the pulley system is all conected to the belts and must turn even when air is not on.} Finally got it running again yesterday. I hear ya---it can really suck at times and also makes it hard on our family and caregivers too ! Hope some things improve before long, that being stuck in bed can be so hard !
