@Roberta,
Oh Boida - so sorry for the all financial complications. I actually wish the surgery just over and done with for you so you don't have to think about it. The financial stuff - well goil, I know you're tired and all that and it's draining, hibernation sounds pretty good right now...

but muster up all the strength you have and go hunt some folk down, roar as loudly as you can and demand the help you need.


((((((((((Boida))))))))))))))

Thinking about you x

@Roberta,
Wow.
Gosh. That's so soon, Roberta!
Good luck!

I guess, with such short notice, at least you won't have the long, drawn out countdown this time, Roberta. That's a real positive, I think.

So what needs to be done before Sunday?

About finances. At times like this I wish I was filthy rich. I wish I could help out, I really do. <sigh>

Bethie, I would dearly love to be in the midst of those kitties right now. I like the one with his tongue sticking out. I always was attracted to trouble-makers.

Olga, What needs to be done? Everything. Still haven't gotten hats. I looked but couldn't find what I wanted. I still have financial issues to deal with (not the current crisis--other issues). Dealing with a recalcitrant idiot about the crisis and hoping it will be resolved before they drill a hole in my head.

No time really to regear up. Just gonna show up and get this done. I don't have to go into the hospital a day early because most of the tests they were gonna do, they did for the adrenal thing. I'm extra worried about asthmatic difficulties (a problem when I've had surgery) and my throat, which is still swollen from the radiation. I expressed both concerns to the doctor.

Thanks for your good thoughts and wishes.

Wondering whether I should sneak Oreos into the hospital. Going cold turkey could be a challenge. Aaaaargh!

@Roberta,
Yes to the Oreos. This one's gonna take a lot of chocolate to get through.

So at this stage, Roberta, Oreo donations would be much appreciated? Wink

What, if anything, do your doctors say about the desirability (or otherwise) of Oreos? You should ask. Comfort is comfort, I say! Why deny yourself if you don't have to?

About the hat situation.: perhaps a few hastily-bought scarves, as you can't find suitable hats? Best to be prepared.

Thinking of you, Roberta.

I have nine zillion four hundred and twenty-three billion two hundred twenty-nine million eight hundred and sixty three thousand seven hundred thirty-two scarves--give or take a million. I just have to remember where they are.

I did not discuss Oreo eating with the doctor. Strange as it may seem, the subject didn't come up. If I decide to bring Oreos with me, I'll ask if I can eat them. If I don't, I won't.

@Roberta,
That's a lotta scarves.

Perhaps these crises are blessings in disguise? (Way in disguise. Nine zillion four hundred and twenty-three billion two hundred twenty-nine million eight hundred and sixty three thousand seven hundred thirty-two scarves' worth of disguise.) I'm thinking of the distraction factor, that you don't even have time to worry, just want to get through it already.

Will be thinking of ya.
