and bones which seem to be worse(pain increase), wearing the limiting and not so comfy brace, IV infusions every 12 hours which last for @ 3 hours and all the home health care is a blessing yet I still miss being "normal". My other bones-joints seem to be worse and this hip will take a very long time to heal. I am on even stricter limitations and restrictions now. The infection and advanced AVN is upsetting. I spend 90% down on my "hospital bed chaise", but Doug re-arragned the room so it works much better and is easier access than any other room. I guess we are getting the systems down. If the other bone-joints can hang in there during this healing time I will be much more at ease. If my sanity holds up everyone will be happy. The Dr. limited my weight bearing activities on new hip because it is so fragile now which puts more pressure on knees and new shoulder (ouchy) which is where the IV port is. I feel like a mess. Loss of blood, infection, constipation and sleep deprivation are contributing. I can sleep for 1-2 hours then I have to move about and so I nap all day. Hey it sounds like vacation right? Thank you for letting me vent and I have learned that every day is a new day with new adventures. I will do my best to keep you up to date. I am not so good on the phone now and it seems when people call I am either asleep, in the bath or on IV. Doug's really needing to focus on this project so if he does not answer it means he is working or care taking. Emailing is best.I send you all my love and gratitude.
