Geez, it's been a while!!!
7 years ago
Dang! It's been a while since I posted an update on what's been going on. A year ago! I'm sorry about that ya'll. So here's my update!
It has been a CRAZY year so far. I have had a ton of health issues, but foremost is tremors. I've been having tremors in my hands for a long time, but this year, it has gotten progressively worse. It's gotten to the point where everything is hard to do, especially drawing, but even eating! The doctors prescribed meds and diagnosed it as something I don't remember, but it basically means they don't know why the tremors are happening. HOWEVER! I suspected it was tension and my therapist has helped me figure out how to relax. And the tremors are going away. I'm totally excited to be able to draw and especially cross stitch again.
There have been a lot of other health issues between James and I. We're also struggling financially. We're trying to start bankruptcy, but we have to get the money for the lawyer first. It sucks. Our pets are not faring well, either. Our little sable ferret girl, Cocoa developed a mass near her rear leg a few months back. We went through surgery to have it removed, but the vet said if there's even the smallest bit left in the muscle, it will grow back. I felt a lump two days ago. I'm praying it's just internal scar tissue, but I don't think so. I've felt her several times since the surgery and never felt it. If it is the tumor, we have no choice but to put her to sleep. My cockatiel, Sprite, has redeveloped an air bubble on her back. It happened several years ago and she got better. So we have to take her back into the vet. My siamese cat, Slush, had a urinary blockage. He's fine now, but we have to keep his stress levels way low and put him on better food. My dog, Bitte, had a fluid pocket show on the side of his head. Luckily, it was just a clear fluid and it's nothing to be worried about. We have 8 pets (3 ferrets, 3 cats, 1 dog and 1 bird) and so far, 4 of them have had issues!!!
Which leads me to this. I'm embarrassed to have created a GoFundMe. I feel deflated, scared and hopeless. I'm not expecting anything from ya'll, but if you do give, I would be beyond thankful. I might be able to attempt some art for you, but I don't know if I will be able to. I would try! So yeah...
Thanks for reading all this and staying with me.
