Happy New Year, dear friends.
I am home and each day sees me a bit better after the frightening blast of Flu A. Combined with the iv dose of immune suppressants on December 15, I had no physical resources to create antibodies and fight the flu. I was just in the ER one day, not admitted to the hospital bec as the dr said, he had many other much sicker patients in his tiny make do hospital.
Friends took Mo, who had health issues of his own. But oh how he loved this home's heated floors!
He has been so loved and cared for.
I am trying not to mourn Christmas that Never Was. ''Better days ahead.''
I am very blessed with the love of friends and family.
best wishes to you all.

ps comments answered here on blog for now as I recuperate. Check in!

You poor thing--what a way to spend Christmas!! I am happy that you are finally starting to feel a bit better, Lizzy--hang in there and rest up...
ReplyDeleteHappy, Happy and Healthy New Year to both you and Mo...hugsx2 Julierose;)))
Thank you, dear Julie!
DeleteYou have had a terrible scary time, so sorry to hear it. Maybe you could get Mo a little heated under the rug pad? We have one and the dogs like it better than the heated floor because softer.
ReplyDeleteHope you continue on the road to recovery a bit every day.

Hi Ceci. Can you tell me more about the floor heating pad you use for your dogs? I think Mo would love that. If safe!
DeleteWhat a tough way to end the year. It is good to know that you and Mo have people to support you both. Rest and heal.
ReplyDeleteThanks. It was so unexpected, I have never had the flu, maybe three colds in my whole life.... Doing btter now.
DeleteSo sorry to hear that you were unwell Izzy, I was hit yesterday with the fever and today it's less but still there. I sent you some water colours and things some time ago and I would like to send some more if you could get in touch with your mailing address. It was awhile ago and I can't find it. Take care of yourself and Mo. Let me know if you would like the things. dispatchervalerie@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteThanks! I hope the flu is not too bad for you, pls let me know how you are. We'll email about lovely art supplies, actually just opened the box of Landscape watercolors before I got sick.
DeleteMy son's battling some sort of virus now going in day three. I've changed any plans because of it in case I'm next. I hope you're on the right side now.
ReplyDeleteI hope you and your son are not too ill, will keep you in my thoughts. Let me know how you are.
DeleteOh Lizzy. I'm so sorry that you contracted the flu at the worst possible time. Hoping that you continue to gain strength with each passing day. I loved that second photo of Mo, he looks so happy! Blessings to you in the new year!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Happy New Year, blessings and love to you and your family.
DeleteOh Lizzy, I had no idea you were ill as well as recuperating from your procedure. My goodness! Life sure can throw a wrench in things sometimes. I'm so glad you are on the mend and you have friends that could take care of MO. Hoping you snap back quickly and the New Year brings you joy.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Robin. I am doing better, for which I am deeply grateful. My friends took amazing care of Mo, who also had a medical emergency. But we're home and getting better. Happy New Year!
DeleteMany good wishes to you and dear Mo for a very happy, peaceful, healthy and creative 2026.
ReplyDeleteKeep warm - I've just looked at your weather today. Pennyxx
Thank you, Penny! Wishing you a good year too. Warmer today and bright sunshine, but the cold makes me cough still, so looking out only.
