It's hard to beilive I've been gone about a month. The rehab center was wonderful. No SD, it was not for my nip habit.
They really worked me over & I feel 100% stronger. I just never thought I'd be in a nursing home before 50!
Killer Kitty about crawled up my leg he was so happy. Woody cried & wanted held. The kitten destroyed my potted plants.

I won't be back on for a while until I am thinking better.I am using a walker. It will tke a while to get my balance back.

Thanks all for the prayers & karma.

love, Red

Simmymom- how do you handle it when you get an attack? Right now I'm taking a maintenance doseage of Valium & phenergan. I usually just have 1 or 2 attacks a year but this last time was over 2 weeks w/ severe episodes daily. I had to crawl to the bathroom just to throw up.

Dr's said that stress is a big factor. Also you need to turn your whole body instead of just urning your head to look at something.

That catniping is a hard cycle to break but I'm glad you have done it. Sounds like KK could use a little rehab too! :eek:

Glad to have you back and stay away from the sauce while you have the walker.

(Oh come on! I meant applesauce. It will go right through you and the walker won't let you get to the outhouse quick enough) :p

SD, I'm afraid that I just couldn't get that monkey off my back. The lure of fresh catnip is just too tempting. I'm going to try dry some for the kitties Christmas presents & am hoping i don't snort it all myself!
Also the kitten has destroyed all of KK's toys. I'm afraid of starting nip at such an early age means a life of no good.  ;)

Is that your wonderful "giggly laugh" I hear?  So glad you're back home. You've been missed.

Glad to see you back. Hope each day at home is a better one for you from here on. I thought they just put you in confinement for a few days to keep you from rooting up the garden.
