My health is bad and I get it. I haven’t taken care of myself over the last 8 years of caregiver. The Before I look good and the After I look horrendous. The season has been unbelievable difficult with extenuating circumstances beyond just caregiving.
But then I got a UTI this week. Hitting “the age.” I felt so awful and antibiotics weren’t helping. Was in bed for a week and then that led to dehydration. Went in for an antibiotic change and they ended up putting me in the hospital as my blood was so acidic.
I just want to feel well. I want to have energy. I want to be normal. I sometimes wonder if I’ll ever be normal.
I needed someone to take care of me and my health problems and in that moment, I have had to deal with the explosion of LBD and be the caregiver. It’s not a complaint, just a reality.
O Lord Jesus, heal me please.
