Subject: New way to spend New Years

Zoe my 12 year old granddaughter and I were going to spend new years eve by having a living room picinic, sleep in the living room after watching cartoons and t.v fireworks displays-instead, at 8:30 I went into terrible pain in my gut, outside a terrible blizzard had started but I phoned my son who has good winter tires and standard drive, we took Zoe to his place-a 3 minute trip, then off to the hospital, normally a 20 minute trip, took us much longer.
By the time we got there I was in dire pain "another bowel blockage" after x-rays they determined I was full of gas,gas can ferment as bad as bowel movement, which I didn't know . They then gave me morphine, and intervenous with heaven knows what in it.To make a long story short, after a day and a half I am home.Have to have only liquids
for a few weeks to give bowels a rest
We have about 2 feet of snow. Soft ,fluffy and beautiful.We are expecting more today.Thankfully no New years revellers were in any accidents coming home in the blizzard from the many dances and parties.
Hopefully you, my friends had a much better start to the new year than I did.
Wishing you both Ellis and Phyllis, a year filled with good fortune.

Oh Tina,

So sorry to read your posting of how your new year started off. Thank goodness your son was able to transport you to the hospital.

Mine troubles are minor compared to yours. I have been having a problem with my right shoulder ever since I foolishly used the roof rake to clean one flat lower roof off a couple of weeks ago.
Also had to shovel front walk off on New Year's day. Now I am having pain in rt. shoulder area and am using a moist hot pack and I can only use tylneol for pain because of other medication I am currently on. I have an appt on the 14th of this month and hope I can wait that long.

I am typing with my left hand. I also am having problems with my asthma acting up. I have been symptom free for a very long time. I guess our year is not starting off great.

Ellie, I hope you are doing well.

I will be watching Ashley on Tuesday and will be doing most of the lifting with my lt. shoulder but still will not be easy. She is 7 months old now and very active.

Wishing you Tina a smooth recovery.

Hugs,
Phyllis
