Blog Prompt – August 15, 2008: Blog Prompt: Today is National Relaxation Day. How do you plan to relax today?
Relaxation is a thing of the past – and hopefully the future, but right now is almost no existant. Until Mark has his transplant out lives are a merry-go-round of continuous doctors visits – for both of us, lately.
We visit four different hospitals for Mark’s health and treatments.
Monash Medical Centre for his transplant team visits. The Alfred – for his peritonial dialysis education. The Eye and Ear Hospital for the management of his eye problems and cataract treatments. And lastly, Frankston Hospital Outpatients for his (and my) Diabetes Clinic.
Of course we also have regular visits to the Renal Specialists and then all the counsellor visits as well.
On top of that we have school things for the older kids, and day care for Cailee as well as my visits to physio, doctors and counsellors. And then of course there’s the new puppy who is demanding as well. *rolls eyes*
I’m really hoping that all of these appointments will eventually fade to once or twice a year when Mark has had the transplant, but who knows? Something else always seems to pop up.
Relaxation is saved for bedtime. When I can zone out and sleep like the dead. LOL
