PN, and trying not to become a one-trick pony …

I appreciate the kind words. It’s good you have good friends who support you and you them. I do too and it means so much. I hope you’ll be feeling better soon.

I keep my medicine bottles out of sight too! Ha….that’s a coincidence. I keep my daily doses in an organizer that’s kept in a drawer, but I do wear an insulin pump (worn on waistband) and integrated CGM (worn on upper arm) that keeps me aware of my type 1 diabetes. Not too bad though. I’m pretty used to it.

Best wishes on your recovery. It sounds like you are working hard on rehab, recovery, etc. You sound like your sense of humor is in full force. Lol. That makes a huge difference, imo.

I do hope the heat lifts some more. I’m in the southeast and it’s brutal. We’ve gotten a little relief this week, but still in the 90s! My Dad wants me to take him on a little road trip…just a couple of hours. He doesn’t drive anymore.

Good morning, Celia! (@celia16)

My partner and I have had an overabundance of medical paraphernalia collect around her home since she invited me to do my at-home rehabilitation here. For a while, in the wake of my first appointments at the hospital’s wound clinic, cartons of every size, shape, and weight were arriving at my partner’s front door every day. As I type this, I’m sitting in her living room, surrounded by those boxes. If I didn’t know better, I’d think I’d awoken in the middle of an Amazon fulfillment center.

I’m not surprised to hear you say it’s brutally hot in the southeast. My partner’s sister lives on the Gulf Coast and has kept us posted on those brutal temperatures. Here in Colorado, where one might expect it to be drier and cooler, if only a little cooler, it may be drier but it sure is hot. Until my sepsis foot wound heals and I’m able to wear shoes again, I’m not able to drive. Otherwise, my partner and I might have fled up into the high country.

I had best end this. My occupational therapist is due any minute. Let me close by wishing you the best of this Thursday. May we all enjoy a little cooler weather in the not-too-distant days!

Cheers!
