Actually, in our home, you may see me run by you while screaming "I gotta 20 in a 22!" I am married to a police officer...in his department that means you are driving back to the station to use the lavatory:) Humor goes a long way in my house and my husband thinks this is fantastic.
Back to spending my time in the "special" place...I have been considering this.
Upon diagnosis with Crohn's I believe you should be handed a care package. In this care package you would find the following items...
- an eReader
- a box of anti-diarrhea tablets
- the softest toilet paper money can buy...as well as wet wipes
- massive amounts of beverages loaded with electrolytes
- and a tiny fairy that sits on your shoulder that says "Dear, there is always someone worse off than you. Suck it up and try not to eat food that makes you s*%& your brains out."
If you have this disease or are a very empathetic person, you know why the above are in this care package:) If you know someone who has recently been diagnosed or is in the middle of a flare up, I guarantee those items would make them happy.
If you find that fairy, please send her my way too!
Very well said!
ReplyDeleteI would add something to mask the smell! :)
Sometimes normal bathroom spray makes it worse...
Belinda, agreed! You're right, it has to be the right kind of spray, lol. Ideally, one that does not give you a headache too!
DeleteThis is awesome. I'm going to use this phrase from here on out. Mostly because it will make me laugh about something that is not often funny when you're living with Crohn's. New to your blog, diagnosed with Crohn's about 4 years ago. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteKate, happy to add a little humor to an otherwise sad situation:) Stay tuned for more lovely antics! Hope you are feeling good.
DeleteWe call our bathroom the executive suite.. Try that on for size
ReplyDeleteI was able to survive senile dementia via an extensive naturopathic process.
ReplyDeleteAbout two years ago, when I was 56, I started feeling foggy and had occasional memory lapses. My wife, Mary, started to notice it, too, but I also have hearing issues so she thought that was the problem. My memory worsened very gradually over the years, and we lived with it, compensating as needed. I became less social. After some months thereafter, it got to the point where we couldn’t keep making excuses or ignoring it. I had gone from doing our grocery shopping without a list to going with a list, to having the list but not buying what was on it.
Mary went online to do some research, and it was during this process we had been fortunate enough to come across Dr. Utu Herbal Cure: an African herbalist and witch doctor whose professional works had majored on the eradication of certain viral conditions, especially dementia, ( improving the memory capacity positively), via a traditional, naturopathic process and distinguished diet plan. It was by the administration of this herbal specialist that I had been able to improve my condition for better. So to say, the encounter with the above-mentioned herbal practitioner was the first time we ever heard there was something that possibly can be done to improve my memory functionality.
By the existence of such an encounter, I was able to learn of the new approach by which this herbalist successfully treated dementia conditions, which included a distinguished herbal therapy and lifestyle changes of which I had undergone to a tremendous, positive effect.
It was after the completion of the herbal therapy I had started to experience a great deal of cognitive improvement when it came to rational decision making.
In brief, I was able to go through the dreadful hollows of senile dementia without any further hazardous damage to my health condition, and within a short period. Had it not been for the support of my wife, of whom had encouraged me to undergo the above-mentioned therapy and that of the herbal practitioner of whom now happens to be benefactor - I would have been long exposed to the further perils of this condition and of which had been apt to result to a calamitous end.
I would also wish for the same positiveness upon patients who may happen to be suffering from this debilitating disease, and would warmly beseech them to find a confidant like this herbal specialist with whose professional services I was able to attain a divine recovery.
