Well, I should be able to finish this in the 25 minutes until my next therapy session. Hi all!

Babble and Therapy a winning combination for the morning :D
9:40 am
uusue2
I'm still in the rehab hospital. Two hours of therapy this morning and two hours this afternoon. Mostly occupational today, working on my right arm (which is almost back to normal)
9:42 am
rururocks
did you have a fall or a stroke? what happened/
9:43 am
rururocks
hope you get out of the hospital soon then
9:43 am
uusue2
Not exactly. Basically it was an overdose of headache medicine (prescribed by my doctors over the phone) which left me almost comatose on the floor. Fortunately I never quite stopped breathing, so no brain damage, but had some pneumonia (now gone) and some muscle damage.
9:44 am
uusue2
I'll be getting out on Friday. That will be just about three weeks.
9:45 am
rururocks
oh.. I didn't realize the headache medicine went that far for you.. I am glad you're getting out.
9:46 am
uusue2
Yeah, I didn't exactly realize either or I would have quit taking it sooner. Funny thing is, i'm now off all the headache medicine and no headaches (they were tension headaches, not migraines or anything)
9:46 am
rururocks
oh.. I get migraines.. they are debilitating
9:47 am
rururocks
although they have dramatically reduced since I got divorced
9:47 am
uusue2
Heh. Divorce worked wonders for my fibromyalgia too.
9:48 am
uusue2
And I think some of this may be due to my husband's death a couple of years ago.
9:48 am
Trifioso
hello. uusue, I am so sorry to read of your troubles. gentle hug, friend
9:49 am
rururocks
sure.. traumatic for sure
9:50 am
uusue2
thanks, trif! I am very much better. And I plan to use this as inspiration to get my life back on track, and to figure out how I want to spend my retirement. I already know I want to travel.
9:50 am
rururocks
travel is on my agenda too
9:51 am
rururocks
I'll just need a robot to finish my grids while I'm gone :D
9:51 am
uusue2
I'm trying to convince my son to stay in Indonesia so I can visit him :-)
9:51 am
rururocks
yeah.. Indonesia is safe except for Missionaries
9:53 am
Trifioso
Indonesia is absolutely beautiful, in some places, from what my more traveled friends tell me
9:53 am
uusue2
The most recent event was India. And Indonesia, although it is majority Muslim, actually recognizes 6 official religions. Bali (where he and his wife are thinking of settling) is mostly Hindu.
9:53 am

My icon is from my son's wedding last December.
