Dear Journal~
I am out of the hospital!! :)
I am on my way home, and I am tired. They really did a number on me, doing all these tests on me, poking and prodding me, and stuff like that. They stuck needles in various parts of my body (THAT hurt!!), and they also put me in the MRI machine, the cat-scan machine, and some other equally scary machines, and they also done minor surgery on me to take samples of my skin and muscles; and they also checked my seizures and stuff. It was NOT a very fun time, and I cried a lot during some of the more painful testings, but maman was there to hold me and comfort me while I was getting "tortured". It turned out that my MD is NOT getting worse (SURPRISE!); it just stayed the same. I guess that is good news, but I am still not getting any better, and that is a major bummer.
My sister, Ronee', had her hip surgery on Wednesday (the same day I had the main majority of my tests), and she did really well, according to her doctors. She now has a new pair of hips, and once her body heals, she shouldn't have TOO much trouble with her walking! In fact, she should be able to walk a lot better than she ever has! But for now, she is in a lot of pain and discomfort, but that is nothing compared to when they get her up and out of bed and doing therapy. Then she will be going "OW"! I am so happy that Ronee' 's surgery is behind her now; and I am equally glad that my tests are overwith and that my MD isn't getting any worse! So it was a good day for BOTH of us!
I just wish that Ronee' was coming home with me; but she has to stay in at least several more days before she is let out. I will miss her until she gets back! But at least it's a nice break from her! LOL
I will write more later; I am going to lie down and take a nap. I know that when I wake up I will be in my nice, warm bed again, in my room, and I will be soo glad to be there! So on that note, goodnight!
