July-A Month in Review
I really can’t believe July is almost over. It’s been a month for the books, that much is true. So let’s review.

The past couple of days, I’ve been having some ups and downs with my umbilical incision.
2012 was the year my health started its journey to hell in a hand basket. I’ve talked about all of my other chronic illnesses on the blog so far, but have left this one for last, I think because it’s actually the one I think about the least; I’ve had it the longest, so…
Can’t sleep. Painsomnia again. I guess part of the reason that Thursday was such a good pain day for me is because I literally spent 23 hours in bed. It just happens once every week or two as a result of my body rebelling against life, so of course I wasn’t in pain since…

The “stab wounds,” as they are called in the operative report (I’m actually not kidding) are almost closed,…
Dear Little 💛ribbonrx, This is you, from the future. I know that seems kind of strange, but I wanted to give you this special opportunity, brought to you by an alien known as The Doctor (see that Blue Police Box in the backyard?) to let you know that everything is going to be ok…
