Hi everyone. I guess the whole manic thing got the better of me, as I am just out of 12 days in inpatient treatment. On new meds now so hoping for the best. I missed family Thanksgiving so we are having our Thanksgiving this Friday. I am still mad about that ex friend thing. But there isn't a lot I can do about it so I am just going to let it go. Really it is just sad for her that she feels she doesn't have enough trauma of her own that she has to borrow mine. While I was in the hospital my mom put up the xmas tree without me. That bugged me a little too, but it's done and that is that. I am trying to learn to just let things go. When I was in hosptial I had a bag leak and that was really embarassing. They didn't really know what to do to help me. Not even how to go about putting a fresh bag on. So it is a good thing I know how to do that for myself. They didn't even know what supplies I needed to make a bag change. My mom had dropped off some of my supplies and they all stood around watching me change the bag and then getting me some clean clothes to wear. Just shows that aparently where I live ostomies must not be something people run into. So I taught them a lot. However my stoma must have been feeling really shy while i was in there because it hardly produced anything at all for the whole time I was in there. Granted I had a lot of trouble trying to eat anything, so much so that they started giving me a high protein ensure everyday I was there. I prefer Glucerna because it is more diabetic friendly, but I made due with what they gave me. How was everyone elses thanksgiving? Looking forward to christmas? I already know what I am getting for christmas so it is a little anti-climactic. But no one knows what I am giving people but me. So that will be my excitement.
