I figured out how to copy and pasted on my phone and how to get to blogger! most everybody that would read this will already be on my email list and hopefully you got this in an email
Hi there,
I wanted to send this update from the computer in the lobby but I would have had to face an assault and battery charge on a old decrepit wrinkly man who won't get off of it. So i'm sending this via my phone so please forgive punctuation and capitalization.
Needles, wires, electrodes and big machines like whirling caverns have been the order of my last 3 days. Yesterday, one test had me hooked up to electricity all over my left side. They informed me that there would be no pain if I was getting normal nerve signals to send the blood back up to the heart and brain. Yo ho ho and a bottle of something was my call as it jolted me off the table. Well we knew already that I was damaged in this nerve signal thing now we know! It hurt like hades-this also indicated that my sweat response was nil. I had already figured this out.
Needles-big, small, some like the mouth of a python with little hooks like fish hooks. Don't move or the barbs get in deeper! We had a slight problem getting blood several days as you can't find my veins. the girl said, "all your blood must be in your feet" -well...
they finally brought someone up from somewhere else and used a jackhammer like thing to punch holes and blood just flowed out and they caught it before it hit the floor!
I was in a room yesterday with 60 old women and men. very cranky atmosphere-one lady reached over and took my paper as i turned to the crossword puzzle. "my husband was looking for one of those to do" -what do you do? I said "okay" but there is a whole stack of these papers on the counter. Her reply,"go get another one!"
enough about that-we are going out to the beach this morning to observe the rolling waves that are the result Hanna. She didn't hit but Ike will most probably before we get out of here. my tests today are from 2 oclock to 6 oclock and include eegs, some kind of brain scan thing while I try to climb stairs and jump on a little trampoline.
that's all the attention span that i have for this little keyboard.
more later
love and laughs
Jeanie
