Question for our dear Ruthanne

[Kaila]

@Ruthanne
I am wondering how you are doing, since you were at the hospital emergency, early last weekend.

I hope you are doing much better ,
or well , or at least, a little better than you were.

I haven't seen any updates from yourself, on any threads, this week.

Also wondering if you've been given any more info, on a possible apartment for you to move to.?

Tx for your concern. Some of the medicine has knocked me out. I'm alright. I have a few more days of that medicine. I can't tell yet how I will be when I am done with it.

I took an ambulance and the guys were so nice I couldn't get up the stairs to my apartment so a couple neighbors called 911. A couple of different paramedics helped me up. I had gotten a Lyft ride home. I couldn't get to apartment place lobby and was swerving with my cane and very scared of falling down on the cement.

So it's not advised to go down the steps on my own. My leg twists to the side and with stabbing pain at times. I'd be so happy to be able to get up and down the steps!

I'm just trying to keep hydrated and have a good deal of protein. I had lost about 40 pounds from not eating for many days. I was just drinking water. I had food here but felt .I shouldn't try to cook on the stove .

I ordered some food that didn't need to be cooked like yogurt and berries and nuts. There's a lot of protein in the yogurt I got.

I had been in a fog after falling 3 times. I'm glad I called the ambulance.

It can't be soon enough to go to a place with an elevator! I haven't called them again. I want to take care of getting better first.

I slept so much today and really needed it with the games one neighbor is playing here . I'm going to keep ignoring him but it makes me angry.

Anyhow thanks! I'll update asap. You are very sweet @Kaila !
