Hi ladies and friends,

Well last Thursday 10th, Mother didn't feel well in the throat after coughing as she'd been coughing up mucus during the week & was able to get it up - well it happened again as 2 years ago :(

I took her up to Glenorie Medical Centre & they took tests etc... but said she should have further checks as they didn't like her erratic heart beat after she'd been coughing so I then took her via McDonald's for an early lunch as we had left home quickly without breakfast & feeling a bit low :closedeyes: So off to the hospital we went & she ended up being admitted to check everything out!

So I stayed with friend & then the next day drove home again to get clothes etc that we'd left without... a very HOT day :sadpanda: After collecting my things, leaving SG a message & going via Castle Hill shops to collect extra things she needed I ended up back at the hospital to visit her late in the afternoon & our friend met met me there & paid her a visit :happy039: I stayed until visiting time was up & then drove over to my friends place again.

The next day being Saturday, my friend & I went to a Bible Reading & then off to Carlingford Shops for a few groceries, then back to her home for lunch & then off Castle Hill shops again & then back to see Mother until late again... that morning she hadn't been well again... so she enjoyed our visit... THEN that night my B.P. shot up high & I went to the toilet numerous times (later learning it was a Liver/Stress attack :sadpanda:

The next day being Sunday & usually going to church etc... our friend drove me over to be with Mother for the day as I was so tired after not getting much sleep at all & my B.P. still playing up :(
I slept in a chair next to her bed... had lunch & slept again :cat_sleeping: Then we had a thunderstorm after the HOT weather we've been having & our friend picked me up again late & drove back to her home. That evening I slept from about 10pm until 9am the next morning only getting up once during the night - thanks to many prayers :thankyou:

The next day, Monday my friend drove me back over to the hospital to pick up Mother as she was coming out :) We went via the Dr's for me & I've got to go back on Thursday 17th for another check up!
We picked up SUBWAY for lunch & it was delicious & packed up our car with all the things I'd brought from home & we headed back to Castle Hill first to pick up a couple of things (including a HOT BAKED STUFFED POTATO for dinner when we got home ;) ) A few minutes after we arrived home our cat, "Socks" turned up - very happy to see us back home again :cat_sleeping: That evening we both slept from about 10pm until 9am the next morning (today) - today I've been trying to catch up on a few things.... getting lunch & now closing to have dinner.... so it's been hetic & I must admit I feel better today & I'm so thankful for that :happy-sun: Plus I've been trying to catch up on my challenges & Jumpstart January :happy-sun:

We'd appreciate your prayers & thoughts for us as we continue resting through this week & I should be able to get my challenges up to date tomorrow & my Friday - I hope I can catch up... :embarrassed003:

Take care & talk to you all soon... *HUGS* Jemima

I didn't realize you weren't feeling well, either! Prayers for you both! Now that you are both back home, you can get the rest you need!

Hi ladies, I've been resting over the weekend & today as I've been very lightheaded with my B.P. problem & can't stay on the computer for a long time :( Will be having a blood test tomorrow & hopefully will have good results... I usually have a headache if my B.P. is high, so this is unusual & I can't take the B.P. tablets prescribed because lightheadedness is one of the side effects & that's what I've been trying to control all over the weekend & today after having only 1 on Friday night & 1/2 last night... HELP... please pray that we can come up with a natural remedy & to fix my liver upset too which could be the whole problem... missing you all & falling behind with my JJ :( Will try & come back later in the week :disappearing-smilie:

Adding my prayer - hope you are better soon. Try not to stress about this too much - it can only make things worse. Take care & see you when you are able to stop by.

We had to go out early yesterday so I could have a FULL blood test... plus another doctors' appointment afterwards.... she said my B.P. is ok - it was due to stress for having Mother in hospital again.... off tomorrow to get the another decision & advice with our naturopath... so please pray that our appointment will be successful & that she'll be able to help us with a natural remedy... the other doctor yesterday also said it could have been a virus that I caught... so we'll find out from the blood test results hopefully tomorrow & see what our naturopath says.... Hope to talk to you again soon & thanks ladies for your support, love & prayers :happy-sun:

Adding another prayer that this all smooths out for you. Glad the bp scare was just due to the situation.

Yes my appointment with the naturopath went well... she said the high B.P. was due to stress with Mother in hospital & I'm going into that stage of a Hormonal Change :( Plus I was very tight in the neck due to sitting for too long at the computer without getting up every so often to have change :( So I can't stay on the computer for long hrs anymore with my neck the way it is... so I've got to SLOW DOWN on my computer work for an example... :disappearing-smilie:

Still waiting on the Blood Test results... so I'll update again then :embarrassed003:

:thanks: Sherry for the BIG HUGS we/I needed that & thanks ladies for your love, support & prayers, very much appreciated :happy-sun:

By the way, :congrats3: Sherry for being "Scrap Girls Club Monthly Member" :happy-sun:
