Hey, Dave!
Thanks for posting! I’m so sorry to hear about the reoccurrence of the cancer! But I am glad to hear that the meds are working well for you! I’m assuming they are being sensitive to your pain levels and being proactive to stay on top of it…😶
If they’re not, let me know and I’ll figure out a way to kick some butt to ensure that they’re taking good care of you!
My dad had multiple myeloma and his spine had fractured in several places so he, too, was dealing with severe bone pain. But his doctor was dribbling out pain meds to him like they were his private stash of gold or something…what a jerk!
I didn’t know then what I know now or I would have never let that happen. So I get a bit (more like a lot!) riled up if I suspect that someone, who is in real need of pain relief, is getting jerked around and not treated right. So I’m serious about my offer! I can make lots of irritating phone calls from here. And if need be, I can pop on a flight and give ‘em hell in person!!! What the heck! I’m retired, not that much going on here…and that would be far more useful than organizing my closet or some such nonsense, right?!?! 😉😁
Take care, my friend! And be sure to stick up for yourself!
Please let me know if there is anything you need or anything I can do for you, okay?!
God bless you and I pray that He blesses your sleep tonight so that it’s peaceful and sweet! Rest easy in our Loving Fathers arms, Dave…and wake up tomorrow feeling refreshed, known and loved!!
Kindest regards,
Melanie
