After an action packed day yesterday with appointments at the doctors, the hospital and physio session times two... yes I know how to live... sleep came very easily to me. I won't say I slept like a baby, as my babies never bloody slept through the night until they were nearly starting school, so I sleep like a baby every night normally, in fits and starts!
But it does look like one of Sam's old wives tales and 'did you knows' might actually be true for a change. She does come out with some random facts at time to the likes of which will have you looking at her in disbelief as she's so deadly serious.
Anyway. I was in a lovely deep sleep and luckily I woke up as I was gasping for breath as I started having one of those coughing fits where you can't actually breath as you have swallowed something the wrong way. So is Sam's fact of we swallow in our sleep at least nine spiders in each person's life time true?????? And had I just swallowed the one or had my life time's quota in one night?????? What ever it was made me sick through coughing!
Still I survived after doing a quick recky around the bedroom for other creepy crawlies and ready to face another round of hospital visits today. Lynn was very impressed with the monthly carrier bag of drugs that I had to pick up from the hospital!
I had another busy day too of visitors coming to see me for my birthday which is tomorrow. I now have a cake stand full (well almost full as I had to try them out... quite a few times!) of birthday cupcakes from Barbara. Jean brought all the pressies from work for me which took two trips to and from the car, and I'm afraid I did open them this evening, but thank you very much ladies for spoiling me!
I had lots of lovely cards and have promised Oliver not to count them as he reckons I'm turning into nanny bragging about how many I had... but I've got 27 so far, Ooops sorry Oliver!
Julie cooked a lovely tea for us at mine and we ended up with two desserts. I am now feeling very full. Ann brought her new grand daughter round for a cuddle too.
So all in all a fab day, but I am now one very, very tired bunny.
Lots of love Debbie x
About Me
- Me...Debbie Burden... or known as Burders
- I'll be 55 this August... I've had bronchiectasis for ten years plus this year... End stage lung disease for the past year...been on oxygen for three years... and have I got used to it yet?... nah! I am now waiting for the biggie; a double lung and maybe a heart transplant. I love my life weirdly enough, because I have some wonderful family and friends who are with me every step of the way on my adventures, even though I embarrass them on a daily basis with my unorthodox way of looking at life. Not for the faint hearted!
