I loved this image the first time I saw it, so when I was looking for something suitable this morning, I knew this was the one…
I have spent the last two days in various hospital waiting rooms, waiting to learn more about my fate. During one of these appointments, the doctor showed me all my X-rays and MRIs and asked additional questions. I have laughed, and I cried as I tried to make him understand everything that was wrong with me, and again when we waded through what happens next.
My head feels like a punchbag this morning, and is so full of conversations, possibilities, and worries. What ifs by the score!
What is supposed to happen next, waiting lists permitting, of course, is a referral to the Spinal team to see what they can do about my never-ending pain. Apparently, I have osteo arthritis in everything. Hips, knees, and spine. I need a new hip and knees, but the spine comes first.
The other appointment was to get to the bottom of my horrendous earache and headache that has been driving me nuts for more than a year. There will be another MRI to see if there is anything in my head that shouldn’t be there.
Of course, this has led to all sorts of amusing comments about the general state of my brain, which I did laugh at, but didn’t really find funny.
The aftermath of all this is me, struggling to remain calm, and finding out if I have anything in my head that actually works!
