ravena_kadeYesterday I visited DQ and and the friend that was given days to live back in January. My friend has been in and out of the hospital twice since then and in rehab. I apologized for not being able to go visit her at the rehab as they bring up too many emotions. I was shocked to see how good she looked. It seems that her many years of lung problems were a wrong diagnosis... they should have been treating her for heart disease and now that they are she is so much better. She hasn't had any breathing issues since January. She is even walking better and her leg is totally heeled.
I also found out that DQ's sister almost died and may never be the same if she survives. It seems her heart was shutting down because of liver damage. Karma has been a bitch to her though. She is the woman I begged to help me with my Mom in the rehab/nursing home and she just told me that this was the system... well she was in a nursing home that abused her... and I have to say that I am glad that it bothers me and made me sad that it happened to her... if it didn't bother me I would be loosing some of my humanity. The stupidity of the situation is that the people who neglected and abused her knew she was a nursing home inspector for a living and they didn't care... and now they have no jobs.
Today turned out more sloth-y than I thought. I did the weekly laundry and I roasted my first turkey. The prep and carving of the turkey took much longer than I thought.... and clean up was long. It came out good. As good as my cousins. I did attempt gravy...and it tasted good, but not like Ma's. It needed some acidity//brightness so I added balsamic vinegar. It was good but the balsamic made it more like a sauce. Not bad as I like sauces better. In the end it was good... but for a holiday... Lobster and Lasagna are both easier meals that I like for celebrations instead of the bird.
Tomorrow I go to the doctor's for a consult to find out what things they want to do to me. My intent is to go back to work after. I just wanter what lip my supervisor is going to give me.
