With this concussion, I have days where I wake up and know its going to be a good day. Today is that. The headache I have isn't as brutal as normal, and I think I have my wits. Yesterday was a bad day. Took me forever to get out of bed, the headache was very painful, and I only spoke dumb. My level of forgetness yesterday was insane. Even I annoyed me. I keep getting asked when I will get better, and I honestly don't know. This isn't my first concussion. I had one when I was 17, and that one was severe and I spent over a week in a hospital. So my recovery on this one might be awhile. I miss work and people and the ability to drive myself places.
Upside to this concussion? My kids are home this week on winter break, so I have gotten to spend time with them. This is a welcomed time, as I just got back from vacation and missed them.
In other news, I have maintained my weight loss of 15lbs. I would like to add to that of course, but right now during this time of injury, I am grateful for maintaining. I have gone back to drinking coffee, but I have lowered the amount I am drinking. I had fast food last night and it was horrible. But yesterday was messed up. I forgot to get ingredients needed for dinner when Andrew took me to the store, I had a schedule for yesterday evening, and I ran out of time before dinner was ready. We left the house for the errands and grabbed dinner while on the go.
I will now review the new Asiago Spicy Chicken Club sandwich from Wendys. It was not great.
I still miss my sister. Which, is a great feeling. I have vacation time at end of June and I can't wait to go to PEI for Canada Day weekend and see her and my parents.
For now, I am resting, and waiting to see when I have two good days in a row.
You went on a cruise and are on bed-rest and have maintained your weight? Amazing!! I miss you, I hope you feel better soon.
