Who do Mothers see about a sick day or 4?

Did you miss me?

I missed you.

I have been in and out of hospital (twice), spent a lot of time in Drs waiting rooms, getting an ultrasound, getting an x-ray, injection in my tummy & had more blood taken from me than I knew I had.

All of this for a sore leg. Not just any sore leg. Sometimes the pain has been so bad that I lay on the lounge crying like a baby. No one seems to know what is causing it. I know that I do not have DVT {deep vein thrombosis}, I do not have a broken bone, I do not have shin splints, I do not have a tumour, I do have very pretty bones {????} & I do know that the pain is not as bad now but at 5:34am {like clockwork} I will wake up & cry for an hour. I know that every couple of hours, the pain will return & I am back to where I started. I now have to wait till Thursday for the blood test results to maybe shed some light on what is going on. I kind of feel as though I am going a little crazy.

Do you know what I mean?

Crazy because you KNOW there is something wrong but no one can figure it out.

1 emergency room Dr & 2 registrar’s

2 G.P.’s

But still no answer. Everyone just keeps telling me to take painkillers. One thing I don’t like is painkillers. They knock me out cold. When Mr P is away, that is the last thing that I need. I am the only adult in the house & I need to be alert.

As a Mother, we all know this, there is no sick days. No time to just lay down & recover. Mr P came home for the weekend just so I could sleep. The pain would come in waves that were so powerful that I had to sleep to have energy to deal with the next one. Now he has gone back to work {the truck} & I am having to drag myself off the lounge & get back to the land of the living. I really have my fingers crossed that I wake up with the alarm clock tomorrow & not the pain that has consumed me since last Wednesday.

I have so many exciting things to do for the blog this week & I have been so excited to share them with you all. I am giving myself one more day off & I have lined up a special guest blogger for tomorrow.

I am taking part in the

  I will be sharing a blog post on how to make these

Paper doily pom poms.

I made these using the dyed paper doilies the other week.

So hopefully after one more day of rest, I will be able to get cracking on some special projects that I have lined up.
