Description
Hi everbody.
This was an image from a pay lake that my hubby and son went to go fishing.
After seeing PJ or Mrs Lubners Quitetude I thought I would post this one.
I have always loved cattails.
You can put hair spray on them and put them in a flower arrangement and they are beautiful.
I want to apologize for not answering some of your e bots.
I have been so very sick.
I have had to go to ER 4 times with such severe pain from my back I was crying.
I asked to be admitted. Seems you can't get admitted even having cancer and in terrible pain...so glad I am not dying!
One ER Doctor suggested they up my Morphine and add a 25mg Pain Patch on the 3rd day, so I called the Cancer Center and the nurses thought I was taking too much Morphine and took me off it.
This weekend, I was in agony and had to go to ER twice and asked them again to admit me but did they oh no....
No dice, so saw my family Doctor today.
He was really upset that they took me off my Morphine and he immediately put me back on it and also increased my Fentanyl Patch strength.
I came home and slept and have not been hurting any at this present time, thank heavens!
Prayers are indeed answered.
I have to write down what time I take it and go back and see my Doctor, this Friday.
If they think I am taking to much, they are going to put me on MS Contin for pain Morphine but it is time released.
I know the nurses at the cancer center are going to have their nose out of joint but tough.
I am not hurting and with this terminal bone cancer I should be treated with dignity and respect and at least be kept out of pain.
Don't you all agree?
All post work done in PSP 9.
Did a one step fix on image, sharpness, hue and saturation, with a border.
Did not add a frame, as I thought if I did this would take away from the picture.
Any and all comments are always appreciated.
Hugs to all my sisters and brothers here on Rosity I love you all.

wonderful place Susan and capture. I am feeling for you knowing the pain you are enduring. I do not know if I would be as strong as you.you are like the Rock of Gibraltar

I love cat tails too; they remind me of my childhood on the farm where they grew in abundance. I cannot believe they would take you off the Morphine and I find that rude and insensitive. I'm glad your doctor put you back on it and is willing to work with you to get the pain under control. I will continue to pray for you. I agree, you are like the Rock of Gibraltar and are a real inspiration to the rest of us. May God richly bless you and your family.

Girl, this photo is to me like a mud hole is to a pig - Hog Heaven! Those cat tails usually find a place in my autumn indoor floral display. But the look through them at this smooth lake is so comforting. I love the fall colors...the color of straw. You have one great photo here. You're always in my thoughts,missy. :-) You don't let them give you any trouble or this California displaced Texan will have to come up there and take those nurses behind the wood shed for a little talk! LOL

So what idiot is putting Cat Tails on a stick now? Juss kidden..lol. Super picture Susan. As for Meds.. someone needs to shake up those folks. Morphine is a rather safe drug, as long as not over-dosed. True, it can be addictive, but so what? Folks have used and been addicted to Morphine for years with little or no side effects. So, if ever one gets past the pain, then one can drop the addiction with a bit of effort. My father passed away in a lot of pain. They wouldn't give him morphine because of it's addictive properties. And he died anyway, in pain. What's the point? Our laws and rules need some serious over-hauling. Pot has been shown, case after case. to be very effective against cancer and side effects of Chemo.. but think you can get some legally? No-Way! You might actually get a buzz off it, heaven forbid! Meds and the establishment are one of my biggest pet peeves... can you tell...lol? Hope all turns out for you Susan. Best wishes being sent your way. Hugs from Dave :^)

I love cat tails. We have them all around my ponds and they make me feel at home! You hang in there, Ms. spunky.

Wonderful image Susan! Looks like Autumn has arrived! I agree, all terminal Cancer Patient deserve respect, and need to be kept out of pain! Sounds like a Power play on their behalf? I hope your Family Doctor gives them a good talking to! My thoughts and continued Prayers are with you! HUGS!

I cannot believe how insensitive they have been with you Susan, although in fairness, for anyone in the medical profession with a bad attitude, there is always 100 very caring people to replace them. You just happen to have been unlucky and I'm glad this has been rectified, by your doctor. I admire you for your strength Susan and I am so relieved that you are once again out of pain. Great capture my friend. Keep on pushing! Steve :o)

A gentle and beautiful capture of the cat tails, sweet sis :-) A gorgeous work. Susan, I am so happy your pain is lessened. It is inhuman to leave you in pain like this.. Gentle hugs and prayers for you always. Diane.

I very much agree , I saw what my mom went thru and you should be kept out of pain that is the law. Shoud even be posted in your doctors office and if they are not doing that you can report them and they would be in a world of trouble.Glad you are doing a little better Susan.Beautiful shot love

Good Morning Susan my sis and I hope you wake up this morning pain free. I agree with you. We are paying the doctors and their not suppose to leave you in pain but they do it all the time. Theres not to many now that cares about the patient's dignity. They just suffle us through like cattle. I wish I was there with you I'd jack a couple of them up and remind them what their job is. This is a gorgeous picture and I was happy to get my little e-bot on it in my mail. I love to look at your photography you are so good at it. Rest up and while you are feeling better please don't over excert yourself. Hugs!

I love the cat-tails. I used to look for them everywhere when I was a kid. They held a fascination for me. They are just as beautiful as I remember. If you want to come to TN. I'll be waiting for you! Mark is right. They'll treat ya right, and ya don't have to be indigent! (Thought it always helps...he's right about that!) Prayers are with you sweetness. Read your poem in AllPoetry just now. I would love to visit those childhood days again, myself. This photo just took me down memory lane.

Cattails always make me smile - they are so unique. What a lovely shot. It is bad enough that you are going through cancer but to have to fight to be out of pain is just wrong. How dare those nurses decide such a thing! Don't let them be so disrespectful of your situation, which I pray will be easier for you. . You are in my thoughts. CC
