The hospital sent me home with oxygen. There is now a machine that sounds like a pulse and a heartbeat in the center of my house. I drag this cord around and wear this thing all of the time.
My daughter asked me why I didn’t do something sooner. She noticed when I coughed I turned blue. I told her when I’m hacking up a lung and trying to get air the last thing I do is go to the mirror and say, gee what color am I. I have been getting little oxygen for months. I can only hope I have not done permanent damage to my organs.
It is hard getting around. I’m exhausted, as everyone said I would be with pneumonia. I’m doing my breathing treatments twice a day and trying my best. I’m also on the treadmill still slowly, but I’m committed.
How do I get out and get groceries? I’m so thankful for Amazon Prime Now and Kroger delivery. I’d stick with Amazon Prime now as the delivery cost is in my membership, but they don’t have as many fresh vegetables. It is a bit of a hassle to set it up Kroger delivery, and they do charge money for delivery, but I think everyone should know about this especially those that are sick or elderly.
