difficult few days plus year and half?

after i posted last time i lost half of my computer files which consisted mostly of a book i have been writing and compiling info for. long story but i even tried to back up and did something wrong or the device was messed up who knows. i was able to retrieve half after a computer guru worked on it. i cried when i felt the incredible loss of all the recordings i made on digital recorder of my grandparents, douglas, dr's, friends, family and me for the book. i had letters, poems and many emails which were touching and inspiring all to be a part of the book. i guess one has to learn not to be so attached to certain "things".

then today found out why i had problems with the pain patch and problems after taking it off. there is a recall on them after many people reported issues. the plastic had a slow leak in some instances which would leak the opiate onto skin and perhaps caregivers as well. the itch, flu like symptoms and tiredness was probably related and when i stopped suddenly i could have had a heart attack due to opiate withdrawals. i was under the impression i could stop taking them. i learned a huge lesson or many lessons this week. it is always something. i also get frustrated being away from home where all our files and stuff is located. i find i am looking for information which is in a file there or forgot a nice rain coat or a pair of rain boots etc. just the comfort of being at home is strange. i also see the cup half full, don't worry, i am not losing my positive attitude simply being human for a moment. all in all the emotions of many months and even past 1.5 years is being felt.
