Hiatus cont..., but getting back to normal :D
2 years ago
Okay, soooooooo it's been more than the 1-2 weeks I thought it would take for my wound to fully heal, but it ALMOST is finally healed. Only a tiny 1 inch opening remains, which is amazing compared to the giant opening it was before where you used to be able to see my entire butt muscle x( but NOW i think it'll be less than a month and the rest of the opening will be all scabbed over. Most of the rest of what has healed has already started turning back into healthy tissue, so that is the last part left to heal, since it all had to heal from the inside out. Controlling my diabetes has gotten easier since now I know better how much I can eat and what I can eat (I've eaten soooooooo much protein these past few months more than I probably have had in my entire life lolz). Also my doctor says I no longer need to take 4 needles a day, only need to take my morning long acting insulin and my daily metformin twice a day unless my blood sugar is over 150 (8.3 in Canadian measurement), which it hasn't been since she told me I don't need to take as much on May 23 :D :D so for the past month and a half I've been down to one shot of insulin a day hurray :D :D also i'm not 100% yet, but my strength is A LOT better than before, and I've been going for longer and loner walks each time to try and help my stamina as well. Honestly feeling like Link in the beginning of TOTK trying to get back my hearts and stamina wheel lolz xD but it's all working out for the best, my blood sugar is now completely under control, and I've even lost 21lbs (9.5kg) :D :D very proud of the progress I have made and how well I have healed.
I am sooooo lucky though to be alive, and my outlook on life has definitely improved for the better since then. I've also started opening up more about my mental illnesses to my family which I NEVER would have done before, because I was always so scared they would judge me for it, but I'm so happy I have their support through all of this and getting the help I need. My hubby of course has been with me through it all and I'm sooooooo grateful he is in my life <3 <3 <3 who would have thought over 7 years ago, a simple ad I posted here on FA would have led me to meeting the love of my life and future husband <3 <3 <3 I love
sooooooooo much and I'm so grateful he stood up to the plate to help me recover and help with wound care and taking care of me, I couldn't have asked for a better husband <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
But as I said, hiatus will continue for a while longer, but I'm slowly getting back to 100%. I'll never be fully back to how I was physically due to my neuropathy in my right foot that developed after I woke up in ICU in the beginning of March, but honestly, sometimes things happen for a reason, and I realize now that, yes, me getting sick was horrifying and traumatic, but it lead me to finally being home with family, doing better mentally than I was before, and also getting sick has now made me healthier and wanting to do better not only for myself, but for my husband so I can be with him for many more years to come. He can't get rid of me that easily, I still got many more years of tormenting him left to do xD xD lolz love you babe :P <3
So yeah, not sure when hiatus will end, but I'm happy for everyone sticking with me through all this, thank you :) :D
