Do I Have Pain? | Grandma’s Stories

May 26th Do I Have Pain?

“Rate Your Pain” – it is almost unbearable ? Just had another surgery, that’s two within a month’s time, and I really do not know how I feel. At least – to give a number between 1 and 10 – that would really convey how miserable I really feel. I have pain covering from the hip area to the top of my head and areas that just plain – well just feel dead to the touch.

Always, it must be “Murphy’s Law” – pain attacks me on the weekend and of course this is a “Holiday Weekend” – which means – No Doctors available! Can not just go to the emergency Room – on this type of “Holiday Weekend” – if they don’t see “Blood” – you went to the Hospital – just to waste time!

So, what to do with myself? Suffer – until I just can’t stand it any longer – or take the next pain pill a little sooner? When, I left the hospital, I was told to get plenty of rest. Do not do anything? Do not think you should now start to clean the house? And, don’t spend all your time on the “SOFA!” Well, what do you mean – “Do something or Rest?! ” Which is it? You can’t give orders – where the one order washes out the good sense of the the other order?

So, just so every one that reads this will know that right now I am not working with all my marbles in the right place, In fact, the brain cells have turn to mush and most probably everything that I do for a while will be on the scrambling side of the road for me?

If any of this makes any “sense” and if or not – maybe very soon – all will be well – with “ME?”
