Challenging last couple weeks.

On the 17th I got my IV drug, and the 18th I went back in for my next session of one gram of steroids. That very day I went back in, as Mike said "She has been saying the most abnormal things". Mike took me in and then they admitted me, they discovered I had a urinary tract infection; which was affecting my personality and state of mind. The steroids were counter reacting with my UTI. To the point the bladder is connected to your brain directly, which caused something of the sort of craziness haha! Then again being in la la land is much better then other side effects such as brain swelling and long term psychoses. The only thing that really calmed me down was the music from my blog. Other then that I am not going into details, but these are just a few things I said on my journey back to the 60's " I rather have a lexis then life", to " I rather have life then a lexis" lol Mike was getting worried, saying that he would buy me a lexis, I guess he figured I would forget that comment. Ha like I would ever forget such a promise. (just Kidding, I choose Life!) A lot of things I said in my "State" Are coming true! For example I thought I saw Mikes stepmother I thought for sure she was there. She called that day and was looking for tickets to fly out and stay for a couple of weeks! She wanted to come out in March but I asked her to come out in May For Abbies Graduation which is On Her 18th Birthday!And that my fluid was drying up and has long as its been dry for a couple of weeks they will take out my chest tube!( hoping for that too come true also!) Everyone is so excited to see her she is a retired Nurse and was such a blessing to take care of mikes dad when he was so sick and a great advocate for him so I know she will be a great advocate for me that knows whats going on! She is so loving and helpful we all can't wait! It ended up taking me four days to get me back to normal and back home, in most cases this could last up to a week, or longer.I was lucky with so many prayers from family and friends and with God on my side. To the people from the hospital, I must apologize for my attitude they said " No worries it was the Drugs talking and not you". On the way home on Saturday, I still was acting a little strange, but everyone loved me anyways haha! Well since I am back to normal I finally got to write on my blog once again, praise the Lord!
