Interesting People - - - #6

I have made a friend.  A soul sister for life.  I am so excited by this connection.  She is one of the most interesting and lovely people I have ever met and I hope we have a long and enduring friendship.  She is simply amazing!!  I 100% adore  her and if she'll have me, I'll be her friend forever.  We connected back in October, but, she and I still feel a crazy, awesome connection. 

She is one of the most endearing and genuine people I know.  She puts everyone in front of herself.  She is a supervisor of a 911 center in Green Bay, Wisconsin.  She has worked there for 21 years.  She is loved by her staff.  She recently had a career disappointment when she wasn't chosen to be the Assistant Director.  

She and I just spent about two hours talking about her opportunities and drinking margaritas - some of the best margaritas I've ever had by the way.  

Have I told you she is an amazing person??  

Besides working in a 911 center, she started her own publishing company.  Who can do that??  I can't even fathom how someone just starts their own publishing company!   Not only did she start her own company - but, she has made it successful and she has two books that are going to be made into movies. Impressive - right!!!  She has literally changed her entire life since I saw her last time - a mere two months ago.  She has had some very intense downs over the last two months and some even more amazing ups.  I don't want to go into them all, but, I am just amazed by her.  

She will be doing some reflecting and some planning over the next month - and she'll make some hard decisions.  One things for sure, I am proud to be her friend and I am so excited to know someone as amazing as her.  Soul sister - just know that I am here for you!!

CoCo's Journey - Ah, Shit!!!

I am exhausted.  Physically.  Mentally.  Is there anything else??  Because I'm sure that is exhausted, too. I went to the doctor today.  I knew it was going to be a lot of information.  I had made a list.  I had my notebook.  I printed out all of the information from my emergency room visit on Saturday to take with me.  Blood tests.  CT Scan.  Urine test.  Plus, I brought my CT scan from March, because I noticed on it that I have a small umbilical hernia.  I was ready.  And I knew what I needed to fight for. I also came armed with gifts.  I love this doctor and his medical assistant so much.  I took them a gift of tortilla chips and homemade salsa.  And I wrote a love note on the bag.  That is how much I appreciate him.  They both loved it.  It even made Hayley get a little weepy, cuz she was having a bad day. I gave him all of my documents, and he went through the blood tests and such fr...

CoCo's Journey - Pre-surgery thoughts

I've been hanging out in my house for the most part.  Hiding from germs.  Hiding from phlegm.  Hiding from coughs.  Hiding from sneezes.  Hiding from snot. Trying to stay healthy until surgery day.  Not that I can hide very well.  Roommate daughter is literally coughing a lung up.  So, she can only hang out with me if she is wearing a mask.  I am bathing in hand sanitizer when I remember.  I'm taking elderberry gummies with a bunch of zinc and vitamin C in order to boost my immunities.   Poor Roommate. Not that I would know much if I did have a cold.  My nose has been running constantly since the day Jeff was pushed up my nostril.  I have a constant sore throat, due to the tube rubbing in the back of my throat.  The worst part is when I'm laying down and roll onto my left side.  It starts to move around and I feel like I'm choking.  It doesn't do it every time, but most of the time.  And I don...

CoCo's Journey - The Notorious Dr. Z

When I get my dressing charges I must wear a mask.  The nurse, too.  So we don't get germs on it!! So, I thought I would share a little bit more about how I got here.  But I'm going to be discussing how I was medically gaslighted, (gaslit -- who knows) and was not treated properly.  And due to that, I am now where I am. When I had my collapse on November 19, 2022, after my knee replacement, I was taken to the emergency room.  The doctor there is the one that told me I was malnourished.  He told me I needed to follow up with my primary care physician (PCP).  When I went to make an appointment with said PCP, I found out my PCP had left the organization, and I no longer had one.  After explaining my situation, they decided to set me up with an appointment with Dr. Z.  I was fine with it, because I needed to get to a doctor.  My first visit, he seemed OK.  But I found him a bit odd.  I'm completely fine with odd, as long as they kn...
