It's been a few days!

I'm actually a little more mobile these days and I can go in the car more. It has helped with the feeling of being cooped up and bored. The first long drive was to bountiful to my work which i got very sick in the car. BUT i didn't throw up. I now don't just lay in my bed and stare at the ceiling. I get up every day and walk carefully around and sit in the front room with everyone else. I do spend most of my time in my room due to the fact we have everything set up so that i can reach it all. I'm starting to be able to get up and down by myself on certain sides of the bed and chair. The left part of my neck is much weaker. Michael is able to get more things done and isn't running his tail off. He is still my drill sargent nurse who watches over me like a hawk. I look forward to march 17 everyday. I so badly want to go to work! I've been over doing it the last few days. So then in the morning i am so stiff i can't get out of bed. I am feeling so lucky to be alive and not paralyzed. But the irritation of not being able to do everything i want and getting so tired so easily is frustrating. Not only all the medical things going on but the irate things with this house is almost scarier. I know that this will make me stronger and my relationship with michael is even closer. i hope together we can make it through this struggle that we have been faced with. We have been in happy spirits and laugh at the simplest things every day. We are so appreciative to the family and friends who help do that.
