It’s an improvement over recent food intake

I can decide on ramen flavor, if nothing else.

I made at least SOME decisions for myself today, despite being sick and muzzy-headed.

Why didn’t that kill me? It feels like it should have…

Despite being in an acute asthma attack, I survived 2 buses and several blocks of walking. I only WISH I died. (Not really - but it feels that way.)

I’m great in bed–I can sleep for HOURS.

I slept. I slept until I woke up on my own - feeling rested for the first time in weeks.

Kitties. Because… well, kitties!

I snuggled my cats and got purrs, chirps, and headbutts in return. 3 purple hearts drawn below the text.

TGIF, indeed. And now I will become a hermit-crab.

I made it to (and through!) Friday, and I don't have to leave the house all weekend if I don't want to.

Why hasn’t anyone thought of this before?!

Having a pulmonologist who not only LISTENS to me, but looks at my asthma in ways no one has ever thought of - ways to test and treat that could really, ACTUALLY help!

Having someone that took care of me after my over-developed sense of responsibility (and guilt) kept me over nearly an hour after the end of my shift.
