Things are not going so well over here......... Charles is having his problems with arthrtitis and my mom is dealing with hyves for the fourth time and has a lot of pain, especially in the afternoon......
And me? I am going from bad to more worse......... even laying tightly against Charles is not helping anymore, so I have the laptop on my bed for some attraction........ It hurts to lay down in any way and it hurts to sit too, so I don't know what to do anymore....... please pray for me please? And pray for Charles and my mom too?

Love you all lots,
Mieke

Oh Mieke! What happened to the improvement the doctor forecast for you?

Praying for rapid Healing for you, Charles and your mum . . .

(does your mum know what causes the hives? (eg. the dressing in some new garment, or a plant she's been in contact with . . . ?)

Well it did improve somewhat, I am not completely wet anymore, so that's a plus....... as far as the pain goes, it only got worse............ it was just a try to make things better, she didn't promise me anything except for the urine loss and that happened as planned (actually I don't think she said that either...... ) I felt like I was with my back against the wall so I agreed to this new surgery and hoped/[prayed for the best...... and the two goals I had were stopping the urine loss and even more the pain...... at least one goal has been reached......... don't know if she can do more or has to wait till the botox stops working, we;ll hear that next Wednesday when I see her again after the catheter change..........

My mom's hyves are probably caused by low resistance and a bad health...... she's way to thin (she does eat though but she has problems with her thyroid), she also has a bloodpressure that's too high and we just heard that my dad's cholesterol is too high too..........

man!! I'm so sorry. Praying for all of you.

Thanks girl..... Tina and I made you a birtday card and sent it to you yesterday!

Love you all very much,
Mieke

Thanks Jack...... it's a difficult time for all of us........ I hate to see my mom in so much pain.......... and it's a great disappointment for all of us that the pain did not go away.......

Sending you a big hug I wish I could take your pain even for a short time to give you some relief. Continued prayers for hope, healing and strength.

Thanks for the s...... I would not give you any of my pain...... this pain I wouldn't give to my worst enemy, so certainly not to someone as beautiful as you.......

This breaks my heart, I am so very sorry for you all.
Praying big-time, love you all.

Thanks Teresa..... We sent you a birthday card too........ I thought it was your birthday soon too, so I sent you a birthday/Christmas card so either one is good....... I couldn't find your birthday date anywhere so either I am too early or too late...... sorry for that, just didn't want to miss it.......

It's still the same.........lots of pain all around, Charles with his arthritis, my mom with her hyves (going Monday back to the doc for it), my dad has high cholesterol and I am sometimes driven crazy about the pain, can't even get myself to make Christmascards......... so that's not good....... bought a bunch of cards to send so that I do not have to make them anymore..... they are cute anyway.......

Love you all lots,
Mieke

Well I have been to the hospital and talked to the doctor and she's very content with the fact that I am not losing urine anymore, that's a direct consequence from the botox....... I also told her that the pain was more worse and she had no explanation for that...... she hoped it would get better with the surgery.........
I have a pretty thick cathether nr. 22 and they slowly want to take it to a 16 or 18 so that might irritate the bladder lesser......... and I guess I have to go back on the diet per January first....... blah...... no more toffee coffee, only mint tea and camomille tea and more of that horrible stuff and lots of water........ but at least I can keep eating icecream without chocolate and my white chocolate bars..... yummy.........

So it's not what we hoped for......... but we'll manage, we always do......... it's very difficult living with so much bladderpain......... and being on those heavy opiods that I got for the bladderpain, that help a little but have so many side effects, like being sleepy all day long....... and not doing anything constructive instead of hanging around here part of the day and watch tv on Charles' computer..........
I don't know about all of this anymore....... just let it come over me........... and try to shower as less as possible as that is the most painful thing I can let Charles do at the moment........... my hair looks awful at times but that's because I am dreading to go under the water..............

Having much pain too this morning, even sitting up in the bed..........Mr. Nappie our cat feels that I have a lot of pain and is laying in my lap (far from my bladder though)........ we have to go up soon because our maid is coming around 10:15 AM and I need coffee before that...... while I can still drink it......... maybe we'll go to a store soon and see if we can find some good tea for me....... we'll see.........
Please keep us both in prayer......

Love you all lots,
Mieke
