13 Years

13 years ago I had my nephrectomy.

Today I am heading into month 14 of my hospital stay. I’m tired of it. I want to be home but my body will not heal.

I am so down today that I shouldn’t be writing it is Holidailies time and my website is all dressed up for Christmas.


And so is my room. I have a string of lights and a small wildly lit Christmas tree. even if I am feeling no joy in the spirit of the time of year, I am trying.

It’s just hard to not be depressed when it is your second holiday season in a hospital. If only I could wake up tomorrow and be better.

    Oh my goodness, 14 months. I can’t even imagine how hard that must be. I hope that Holidailies brings some joy or comfort to you, and even more I hope that you find healing and better health.

    Oh my, 14 months is a long time. I can’t imagine. I hope you do get better and can go home soon.
