Re: Happy halloween

[Guest guest]

I took my shot on Friday night, didn't sleep much, keep waking up. Got up

Saturday morning shocked to see that I was feeling pretty good, but as the day

went on it really started to hit me, I actually felt like I was coming down with

the flu, chills and achy all over, so I spent all the day in the bed. Sunday

morning wasn't as bad but it took me until later that afternoon to feel like

moving around, but by then the nausea from the ribavirin started to kick in.

Didn't sleep any Sunday night due to the nausea, Monday nausea and chills, and I

am so blessed to have such a wonderful husband who was up most of the night just

to make sure that I was okay, and I woke up a couple of time to find him with

his hand on my head saying a little prayer over me, and I did manage to work 6

hours. Tuesday morning had quiet a bit of nausea but I was feeling better by

the afternoon, but today has been really good, and I am so thankful for a GOOD

DAY. Maybe next week will be better, but

just remember take it one day at a time. I will be praying for you and keep me

informed of how your treatment goes. We are starting about 3 weeks apart, maybe

we will learn some things that we can share with each other.

Friday, and today is the first day that I have felt good. So I have enjoyed

Well, as usual when I have a good day, I have to overdo it. We paid $80 for

a mattress pad for our new mattress which is guaranteed not to let the

mattress get stained. I am not sure what is the cause, think it is

chemicals in Ed's sweat which has broken down the material in the pad to the

point where a lot of the seams for the quilting have torn apart. So, I

decided to sew them back together. Those of you who sew, imagine doing 5

seams into the middle of a thick mattress pad. I have been pulling and

pushing for the last hour and now I am not haivng a good night. I hope that

I will lose a pound or two anyway. I sure did break a sweat and might have

broken my back. I would put lol, but I hurt too much. Jan H

Just curious,

If you paid for the stain free, insurance or guarantee, why don't you just call

the store and have them replace the mattress? Which is probably not applicable

since you've sewed into it. :-)

The way I look at it, is if something is not supposed to damage something else,

and it does. Then the owner of the guarantee/insurance should reimburse the

customer for the amount that was contracted at purchase.

At the very least go get your $80.00 back!

MaC - it wsn't insurance, it was a mattress pad which is guaranteed to keep

the mattress from getting stained regardless of what you put on the pad.

And the mattress still has no stains, was afraid if the rips in the pad

weren't sewn up that it would get stained.

But, you do have a point, Not sure though how long the pad is guaranteed

for. It is five or six years old. I would just buy another one, but not

Ed. As to what I am feeding Ed. I think it probably has more to do with

his work than what he eats. He is a mechanic, and constantly getting

chemicals on himself. It is a good thing we are rather isolated here, or

sometimes when I make him strip outside before coming in and taking a shower

the neighbors could get a good show. I am extremely sensitive to odors, most

give me instant asthma. He is also very oily. Don't know how he can be

so oily here, but he cleans the oil off his face by scraping his pocket

knife over it. And he does wash it at least twice a day. Probably more

than you wanted to know.

How are you and Colleen doing on the weight? Jan H

Jan, it was me who brought up the thing about what he eats. It was just a joke,

but Ed sounds very much like my father , who is a machinist.
