Hospice, part two

This morning we were awakened by the telephone. It was a chaplain calling saying he would like to come and meet with me. Another part of the hospice service people watching out for me and my needs. Then this afternoon a gentleman showed up to help me if I needed help with bathing and such. I laughed and told him that I had my lovely wife for those things and we laughed. I find it funny that they wish to do so much for me but at the same time I am grateful that they are so willing to look after their patients. I don't need much assistance but I bet those that do are incredibly thankful of this fine company. I see the Chaplain on Monday...

Pump It

Pump it in or pump it out. If you need to pump liquids then you know that you really must have a high pressure pump to get the job done quickly and done well. But, where do you find a high pressure pump? Like anything else you can always search the internet using your favorite search engine and pray they give you the best results, especially where price is concerned. or, you can just click the link above and go straight to the website called We Get Pumps. This is what they sell, high pressure pumps. Whether you need the whole pump or just parts for the pump you already have or even just a booster for a pump, they have those things. If you don't see what you need, don't fret, They have MORE pumps, just Call 888-817-8677. How handy is that? Very handy, indeed! They also have operation and safety manuals available on-line. That's a plus too! Their pumps are 100% made in the USA. Hardly ever see that any more. Made in the USA. They offer free shipping for online orders and they have over $8 million inventory in-stock and ready to ship within 24 hours. So, pump it out or pump it in, whichever need you have, go and get pumped.

Hospice Care

When I left the ER the other day it was with the understanding that I would be getting hospice care. Sounded good to me and I couldn't refuse it. Never pass up great opportunities! They not only set me up with a new oxygen machine they left me two oxygen tanks as a back up or to use if I decide to venture outside the house. Not today, it is raining here lol They also left me a large bag full of medicines. Everything from inhalers to morphine. Morphine?? Yesterday a male nurse came to visit and to help me with the meds. The morphine he said was standard and I didn't need to use it. Phew! Just a ballpark figure but looking at all the inhalers and the pills and the new small machine used for breathing treatments there is easily over five hundred dollars worth of stuff. I feel special :)

Unique Gifts

Gift giving should be as special as the occasion you are giving someone a gift for, be it Mother's Day or a good friends wedding. One has to think carefully about what is the best gift, showing all the love that one has for the gift receiver. One of the best ways to show love and uniqeness with your gifts is with wooden boxes from a company that knows a lot about wooden boxes as well as gifts that are truly special. And the process is fairly simple, making it easy for you. The one getting the gift will never know just how easy it was, certainly brownie points for you there. Start with the box, finished or unfinished. Then add the designs that you want on this box and ta-da, you are pretty much finished. Here is a great example from the website: Creating a wood jewelry box for Mother’s Day: Start with one of our wood boxes with a gold clasp, and browse the options for decoupage or rub-ons to make something unique. Or simply paint the box and add grandchildren’s handprints for a keepsake she’ll be happy to place on her dresser. See what I mean? Very simple yet something a mother would be beaming with pride over knowing her child or grandchild thought so highly of her to do such work. Check out the other great ideas as well as all the boxes and other goodies for craft work that this site has to offer.

Which Right?

Sometimes I wonder whether it is best to do the right thing or what is right by me. The push is still on to do the one thing I really do not wish to do which is go visit a doctor. I already know that I have COPD and it never will get better. I already know that I am way to thin to be healthy for a normal human. I already know that my cigarette habit doesn't help the COPD. So, what the hell do I need a doctor visit for??? I do wish people would realize that I am happy with myself and my life. Isn't that good enough?
