Surgery//Recovery//Diet

Hi! Everyone
(Vous pouvez traduire en Francais dans ce blog ou alors allez a www.patacolorcarnet.weebly.com . Les videos en dessous sont aussi en Francais. Merci👇💟)
 Recently I talked to a close friend of mine about my thought and my decision of ending my posts here in blogspot.com. My friend who I really want to thank told me that I should not do it because writing is my passion and my way of expression. (Thank you, dear friend. You know who you are since you read me sometimes...) Writing comes so naturally to me even if  I have to read later again to correct misspelt words or mistakes. Writing has always been a part of me since my young age so...I should not stop doing it that is true. I also realize that writing in my blog is my therapy. I express my view, my anger, my opinion, my happiness and my thoughts through it. I always told to people that I was raised in a very strict environment where I could not express my feeling freely as a result, writing was my only mean of expression. Talking about therapy, I recently got out of the hospital after a major surgery. That is actually the first time that I have such medical procedure. As I am talking now I am recovering little by little. I live with physical excruciating pain every day I cannot move my body the way I want or used to and that is very difficult and it sometimes emotionally breaks me down😒. I hate taking medication but I have to take daily pain medication I just hope not to be addicted to it.
It makes me sad...sometimes you cry...sometimes you smile and you keep living and that is more important because there are people who deal with a more difficult medical condition. There is no reason to complain and to be selfish. From this experience, I understand what having good health means and I really want to work on eating better and healthier than before. I will never take good health for granted anymore. The decision of going trough the knife or surgery was because my condition was really bad. I knew it a long time ago...  but because of my fear and lack of knowledge of certain things I postponed and avoid going to see the doctors for it. In 2015 when I went to France for my Summer vacations, my family and doctors told me their concern about my condition and that I would not make it longer if they do not remove what was causing the excess bleeding in my body. 😧Anyway! It's done now! About anemia, I am on my way of recovering from it I believe. They also removed some fibroids. OMG! I can't tell how many of them they found it just embarrasses me to talk about! yak! horrible! I still had a low level of blood before surgery but it was enough to go through it. Now I can work on it peacefully
Me at the hospital/ www.patacolorcarnet.weebly.com
I just need a good and regular intake of iron as usual and other vitamins. My stay at the hospital was difficult the second day. I don't have the strength to talk about it yet maybe with time but it was...difficult. Just thinking about it give goosebumps I don't want to think about it for now. At the hospital the second day, I could not sleep my body was in deep discomfort inside. I stayed there longer than expected. I started walking early because I wanted to get back home soon but at some points I got weaker and weaker. Well, it was...a horrible experience😌. I am ok now. I just hope to be back on my feet, I try to do my best but as you know after such intervention you cannot move your body or walk anyhow. Something that I start learning is to overcome your fear. My fear was also caused by the fact that I didn't want to have anesthesia induced in my body. I didn't want needles either. I have such a fear of needles but let me tell you that I don't even count the number of time since September 2016 I have to get blood taken and also injections...lol!!!  That is what happens when you avoid doing something you think you can deal with it your way or that you can manage the situation but you don't realize that you are making it even worse lol!!! Han han don't do like me people!😜It's not good!
When they inserted a catheter...I hate catheter!
Really I want to thank all the people who are working in the medical field such as the medical team who took care of me, also people like my mother and many other. I saw my mom working with love and compassion for her patients even when she was on the days off. I wish I could have been a nurse but...I realized it was not my call at all. I have compassion and love for people but in a different way I guess. The medical team did a good job. The reason of my fear of anesthesia was also due to the fact that I have a bad memory of the death of one of my favorite artists. He died with a liquid of anesthesia induced in his body when he was at his home. He never woke up...According to the media he regularly slept with this propofol thing so you could understand my concern when I explained it to the Dr. anesthesiologist he told me in his case nobody monitored his slept with it but in my case, a team would be around me and watch everything which they did and it was a success. Thank you to the team!
Before going to the hospital you have to be ready and have things with you even if they will get you some other items... I got my bag ready the day before. My heart was beating like...you know the unknown and I am so glad I went through it. Once there try to keep yourself clean not doing too much because you don't want to hurt your body
 gel douche, facial gel, toothbrush, pads, bandage, a loofa...and a magazine of course! In case you get bored
Back home do the same try to stay clean. Something else that I must work on is how I will be eating. My diet must be revised I guess lol! so far I try to eat light but rich. I will eat better later. I have to keep taking my iron. Something else that I start doing is to make my own juice with vegetables and fruits
Orange sweet potatoes soup with some spices, organic Greek yogurt, avocado, cheese, fruits...
One thing is sure I will say bye to anemia in a few years from now. No more fibroids thanks! Lord Jesus! 😄Ok! My life can go on. Alright guys! now you know I am back and writing in my blog again. It will definitely be a therapy, especially in this difficult time. I love writing. I can't believe I decided to stop everything. Writing is a part of me. It shows that maybe I was really depressed about what would happen to me. It is not easy...I will try writing as much as I can but it won't be easy... Be blessed and I hope to see you soon.  I send you love 💓🙋bye!!
