Feeling better today than yesterday. My energy still verges on nonexistent but I was still able to get up out of bed today. Yesterday was a losing battle against my physical strength so I gave in and spent the whole day in bed.
RJ had his friends over for the first time. It was nice to know that he gets to spend time with them and maintain a sense of normalcy. Of course, the little one tagged along with all their other adventures.
So, overall, I am feeling much better. My chest still feels like there's a ball stuck inside my sternum but thus far, I've held off taking pain medicine. A first time in months, literally. I was able to make breakfast and dinner with a lot of assistance from the kids and Ramon. I feel so blessed that I got to have a day like today. I thank God once again.
My other projects are on temporary hold. I think I will make my first posting next weekend. I am naturally talking about my foray into writing. Don't know how long it will last or what it will lead to but I am bound and determined to essentially pursue it. My only limitation would be my own physical strength which inevitably affects my mental faculties as well.
On a more fun note, I found out this week that the medical director at my treatment facility is a bona fide cousin of Albert Einstein himself. Literally, one of the undisputed gods of physics has a living relative whom I interact with almost on a daily basis. How's that for mind-blowing? I mean, Einstein blew the long standing Newtonian principle regarding gravity out of the proverbial water. I was so tickled at finding this out that I now am in the habit of referring to him as "Eintein's cousin." Whether he considers this a compliment remains to be seen, however. He's quite tolerant of me, fortunately.
Once again, I thank my Heavenly Father for all my blessings and for giving me continuing to give me the gift of life. And what a life it is.
