I hope there’re a few flakes or even more for that young nurse you chatted with. You’re helping each other.

I don't know when I will have that nursing assistant again.
There are so many different ones.

Good Morning, Kaila! Here is a little snow for you today. Not snowing here yet but might have some later this morning. Hope you have a productive day and get you on track to going home.

Katlupe, a perfect picture and perfect message for me. Thank you!
I'm getting stronger, doing more of my self care, and a little walking with a short style walker .
I hope to get back to their rehab gym today, to use their parallel bars for standing upright.
I could cry. It means so much to me, even just to think about standing. 🥲

Good morning, Kaila!

I hope you got a better sleep last night. I find, as a light sleeper, it's a challenge getting enough sleep in hospital.

It was uplifting to read of your connection with the young nurse.

Have a good day, today :) 💐

Thank you, Pinky!
Yes, with a sleep problem to begin with, and then add the Noises and disruptions at hospital and rehab....

And strange routines such as waking me at 4:40 am, to take my weight.
"What? " I said. They took it last night at 10pm....It hasn't changed since then. "

It seems a bit funny now with the retelling. 😄

That was amazing, being in the moment, with that young nurse assistant.!!!!
 
@Kaila Thank you so much for your sweet comment. I am so glad that I found SF. I cherish my new friends! We are building up such great connections all together. We share our thoughts, our emotions, our discoveries, our passions and sadness.

I hope that each day you become stronger and that lead you to be able to go back to your sweet home.

Good morning Kaila, hope you were able to get some sleep last night. I feel for you not being able to see the outdoors, it does brighten the mood to see trees, birds and nature. Hope your day goes well, hugs.

Many here know the feeling of being helpless, wanting to scream and throw a tantrum. Focus on your healing. Let those who guide you on your journey know how important they are in your life. Most of all - smile!

Perhaps you misunderstood me.
I cry tears of gratitude at the mere thought of being able to stand.
I have showered every caregiver and therapist and Dr and nurse, with kindness and appreciation.
I smile and laugh as often as possible.
 
Honestly it's a Difficult evening here.

They brought me very little that I could eat. Been working with dietary all week, but not going well.
One of my only 2 family members isn't answering my email. Feeling very sad about that.
Listening to another patient crying... 😔

At least I am getting stronger.

Enjoyed therapy even though it's hard.
I hope I'll be able to keep it up, at the pace they are going.

I hope I'll be able to sleep tonight.

Thank you for keeping me going with your understanding posts.

Kaila, that's really sad that you can't get decent food to eat when you have to gain your strength. It would definitely tear at my heart and affect my mood to hear another patient crying, I hope things get better for them.

Bummer that your family member isn't responding to your emails. :( I hope you get some good sleep tonight and you can go back home soon. Keep the faith, and keep up the good work toward recovery. Sending you love and uplifting thoughts. 🌛

I'm up for a few minutes during the night. Looking back again, at some posts like this one from you, seabreeze,
and from others on this thread.
I'm very grateful for the caring support from all of you.
Going back to sleep now.
See you all, in the morning 🌄
Kaila
