Things That Make You Go HMMMMM

Things That Make You Go HMMMMM - #29

I stopped at the bank on my way home from work today. The lines were long - I am guessing that those people who get paid the 5th were all lined up there. There is a Deseret Industries behind the bank. Just as I pulled around the corner after finishing at the bank I noticed a Vespa type scooter came speeding out of the thrift store parking lot. As I saw him cross in front of me, I noticed that he had a lamp sitting in front of him. Not only that, he had a mirror and a framed picture of some type under his arm.

He stopped at one of the busiest streets in our town, it's five lanes across, and it was the busiest time of the day. Cars were coming one after the other. I watched him dart across the first two lanes and sit in the middle lane. I turned right from there and don't know if this freaky game of frogger was going to end well. Hopefully, Mr. Dumb or Dumber made it all the way across and home. I hope his redecorating goes well.

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...
