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. Susan, aka Blush

I agree completely. You are someone that I will try to model myself after when it comes my time to endure or suffer. You have strength and still enjoy your family and the beauty around you. Bless you always.

Hi Susan ! I like your shot and your gallery is wonderful. I've read your story and your fight against your cancer. These Doctors are unfair. You are right : you should be treated with dignity and respect. They should not let you suffer like this ! I hope they will find a solution for you. You seem to be such a sweet lady... Hugs Virginie

Cattails are special to me; I used to pick them for my grandma and put them in a tall vase she kept in her livingroom. :) This picture makes me think of her; thank you xxxx!!!! What an ordeal you are going through. Every doctor has their own ideas - they can have one coming and going and falling all over oneself. I'll keep the prayers going; as its nice to see some are being answered for you. Stay strong .. I'll be thinking of you !

What a gentle and eye pleasing shot! I love this one....... As for all the health and medication related comments, dear.........I am in Canada.......and here, Marijuana is available ON PRESCRIPTION in such situations. I also work closely with a local doctor who once photocopied a page or two from some important paper, which was his way of reminding nurses, (like me) that to withold medication is just plain WRONG! I heartily agree with him! I have you in my thoughts, love! Chris
