okay, I swear this time

  Well how about a monthly daily amy. lol i swear i'm the worst. My motivation has been in the toilet, and these past two weeks my numbers have finally come up so I'm back to having energy. 

Turns out even with awful platelet numbers you can still form a blood clot. I'm a medical mystery. I ended up getting admitted to the hospital. And let me tell you, getting a phone call from your dr's office telling you to get your ass to the hospital immediately is a call I don't ever want to get again. At least I had enough time to pack a bag! 

My blood clot's name is the Death Star. Seemed perfect at the time. And I didn't have any symptoms, They just totally found it by a fluke and an amazing CT Scan technician who saved my life for sure. I spent all of labor day in the hospital and had a cool little filter inserted into an Artery near my heart. An IVC filter is what it is called. Because it looks like an umbrella, it was named Rhianna. I've had 2 near death scares in my life, honestly that was the scariest one yet. All in the middle of a pandemic. and Tom couldn't be with me. The worst. I did not have a pleasant hospital stay. It wasn't awful. But Tom did bring me my ambien prescription so I could conk out finally. 

Seems like I'm on the mend now, so that's great. Rhianna will be coming out near Christmas. I'm hoping to make an amazing Christmas tree ornament for our tree for 2020.
