The Birthday in the Hospital is not as bad as it could have been.  I got some pretty balloons, birthday cards and a few decorations for my room.  My mom was the thoughtful to make my room brighter.  My niece brought me a Hannah Montana card, told me Hannah Montana is her favorite rock star.  My niece is only four so I have forgiven her for her taste in music.  Oh…she also likes the Jonas Brothers.  When I asked her if she thought they were cute, she said yes!  Her Daddy better watch out!

The hospital brought me angel food cake and fresh strawberries for my birthday cake.  I really enjoyed it….the only thing that would have made it better was if some chocolate had been involved.  Unfortunately, no chocolate for me.

This hospital is doing a much, much better job at keeping my blood sugar from getting horribly out of control.  The highest it has been 389, but most of the time it has been under 300, in the high 200’s.  The doctor dealing with the blood sugar said he might, starting giving me insulin by IV, that would mean I would have to change rooms though.  It would be too easy for things to go bad with such a direct line of insulin, so I would need more intensive supervision. 

As much as I like being alone, there is a difference in being alone because I am choosing to and being alone because I am forced to.  I am experiencing some loneliness right about now. I am watching American Loggers because it is a show my husband likes, and talking to ya’ll on the blog, so I am hoping that it will help with my loneliness.  I know that I am feeling better, just because of the fact that I am even wanting to blog.  I was feeling so bad because of the lack of being able to breath and the things going on with my nursing care, as well as just being in the hospital, that I did not feel like blogging earlier. 

Ok going to run for now, I am sure I will send out some more rambling later.

Be well, my neighbors!
