"Fwd: Prayer Request"
I was ill over Christmas and did not go to work today.
I am back to sitting up to sleep at night when I am able to sleep.
I have pneumonia and pleurisy this time. The pleurisy is quite painful
and, of course pneumonia is pneumonua. I cannot finish a task because
I fall asleep and wake up with my head in my lap. (It has taken me
about 30 minutes just to compose one paragraph for prayer.)Joe took me
in to the doctor today and he asked if I have been told my diagnosis.
I hadn't and told him so. They have me diagnosed with fibrosis.
I looked it up and one type kills within a year. It sounds like I
have the older type - develops as a person ages, I don't know what
kind of treatment there is for this. This is an ongoing request from
the looks of things.
I have had 103+ temperature for the past two mornings.
My coughing is deep and panful. I don't want to eat but that problem
is probably more connect to the 'GERD. They did more xrays today
and blood tests. I am concerned but not overly. Ignorance is
bliss.
Thanks - Dawn
