I just hate to go because you end up sitting for hours and hours and hours. Last time I went with chest pains and it was still almost 5 hours until I was seen to.

I am ...You are right Monique, it is soul degrading. I am not sure how much longer I can cope. But I'll do what I have to do. No, not everything happens for a reason (below) but I do think that we have the capacity to cope with whatever happens, good or bad. Its not what we are handed that counts so much as how we handle what we are handed. I don't think any trouble was ever made better by moaning about it too much. Its okay to have a moan, but then we need to find a solution or a way to live with whatever we have to live with or life just would not be worth living at all. Just my thoughts.

I agree...do go to the emergency...take someone with you, hubby if he can do so...it just plain helps them be more concerned if someone is with you!! I am very worried for you!! Please do get some help...maybe next time you are in such pain, call for the ambulance to come get you there...that is also a way to be seen more seriously!!<br />Elizabeth with prayers, xoxoElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07529409389057290042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-53881290413839531802019-10-23T02:53:05.778+01:002019-10-23T02:53:05.778+01:00Hi Marie~

In this day and age, there is no reason you should ever have to be in that kind of pain for as long as you have been. <br /><br />Your review of, Christmas as Highclere was really beautiful, what an amazing place! Downton Abby is one of my favorite shows, and yes, re-runs are just as good! <br /><br />Praying for some relief for you, Marie XOXOXOX<br /><br />Hugs and Love,<br />BarbBarbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158897469583069249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-55015827181717088972019-10-22T19:29:34.180+01:002019-10-22T19:29:34.180+01:00Hi Marie, I think Melly is right. If you go to em...Hi Marie, I think Melly is right. If you go to emergency, they can't turn you away and they will see how much agony you are in. I loved your delightful review of "Christmas at Highclere Castle". It's a lovely book to read even if you don't make any of the recipes but I have already made one recipe from it - "Fish Pie" on page 304. It made six generous servings for my husband and I. And it tasted every bit as good on the third day as the first. I spent a little over $40 on the fish but that works out to a little over $6.00 each per meal - not too bad. And we had lovely homemade apple crisp for dessert. Your day is winding down, Matie. Are you able to sleep with the pain? Hope so.

Physical therapy helped quite a bit, too. She did end up in an assisted living facility. I think it's time for the emergency room.

Just when you needed a lift to brighten your day. I will have to look for that book and add it to my collection . I too love Downton Abby and watch it over and over. Hope you begin to get better soon. This is gone on way too long. You need some relief.

Highclere is definitely among the man gems of the grand English houses. How pretty it looks in winter and dressed up for Christmas. I'm not a Downtown fan. I was at the beginning, but after they killed Matthew off, and some other quirks with storylines, we weren't as enthusiastic, though it IS very well done with all the costumes and such--no doubt about that! ;) I'm sooo terribly sorry you're in so much pain! I hope you someone may be able to help you find some better relief soon. It's a pity that in many place marijuana-laced pharmaceuticals aren't allowed, as they do help many people cope with all sorts of dis-ease. It's funny what is cracked down on, and yet what is allowed... :/ Thinking of you, and praying for you, my friend... LOVE YOU!!
