Gentle posts for gentle folks

When i first came in,
My kitty was cautious and leary and confused........

I expected it.... because....

Cats are different from dogs!
:LOL:

A short while later,
I was on the bed, and she crawled up... on me.....
And started purring like crazy... and rubbing on my hands for pats....

It felt great to be home!

I've been a member here for at least a few years.

Now going thru one of life's largest hurdles.

My life changing so dramatically in 2 weeks time.

I hope that some of you, might like to accompany me on this journey of mine, in whatever gentle ways that are right for each of you, while on your own paths.

From a hospital bed, I write this, today.

Thank you for reading my first post on the diaries section of S.F.

Good morning Kaila ,Your post touched my heart and as a new member - this is officially my 1st post. I too have spent a good deal of time in a many hospital beds. One day well, then the diagnosis and wondering if you'll see the next year.As a woman of faith,I can assure you,you are never alone - be it in that bed or anywhere else you may find yourself . I've learned that a part of why God allows suffering is so we might learn what it means to rely on Him and not our own strength or resources. Keep writing and sharing your journey.As you do,I'll keep you in prayer.

Welcome to the forum, Connie,
And I thank you for the meaningful post.

I'm touched that it is your first post.
Thank you.

I did write that first post in this thread, that you responded to...,I wrote it very early December,
But it's still a caring response.

Thank you so very much, my friend.

It was an exhausting transition,
But I am home!

I worried about my sleep, if it would continue being disrupted, after the rehab experiences ....

But I did sleep!!!!!! Sleep 😴 💤 🛏

Sleep, glorious 😴 💤 🛏

That's my good news for today, for you and for all of you my friends!

And my husband is different, but he is still himself. And back here.
He's forgotten some things but not everything.

He hasn't forgotten me.

Very small and simple pleasures.

Being in my own bed. 🤩

Calling out for 😺
And she comes.

A cup of coffee from our percolator.
☕️

Looking out my own familiar window.

Winter bare trees..... finches with their winter coats. ☺️

Home simple foods, that we can manage to prepare.

Not that wonderful fancy cooking that @RadishRose
Had been cooking for me 😁🤣😂🥰🤩

There’s no bed quite like your own. A good sleep makes a world of difference. You wonder why the folks at the hospital don’t know this.

Right.
No one recovers from anything, without sleep, do they???

I realize that some things can't be helped, in hospital and rehab settings...

But some things could be done better,
if sleep were recognized to be one of the goals,
for returning to health, or for coping with illness and trauma of a wide range of types.
 
Hello, everyone. :)

Here at home now, I've just started looking at the bills that piled up, and putting them in an order of priority.
Past due,first.:oops:😁

Also just began investigating how to get some items delivered..... with neither of us driving now. 🤔

And I'm Making a list of loose ends, that were dropped suddenly ;
And all of those loose ends got tangled into knots, while no one has had their eye on them. 🧐😊

But I will unravel them slowly.......
