Multiple Nightmares

February 21, 2021 1:48pm CST
Rushed to the hospital on 2/11 for Costal Condritis (inflammation of the muscles under the rib cage and sternum). Felt like my heart was exploding and I was going to vomit blood.
Got home Sunday at noon on the 14th only to have the power go out at 10:26pm. By 8:30 on Monday morning I had Hypothermia and had to be rushed back to the hospital. They threw me out even though I may not have had power.
One of my cats died on 2/13 and another one froze to death on 2/17. No power and I'm suppose to be on the electrical, "Critical List". So much for that!!! I still have no water either.
Good thing I had a cell phone because I haven't had main line service since the 11th. They just got it back on today. If I wouldn't have had the cellphone, I would have died on either episode.
My life sucks!!!!

Could you melt enough snow to help with the water issues @nanette64 ?

The water is still nasty @rebelann . I have to boil it. I'm sure glad I've got a stock tank for the donkeys or they wouldn't have any at all.

@prinzcy When I would take a nap, they'd cuddle up next to me; so naptime sucks.

Wouldn't it be nice to get lucky on St. Patrick's Day @LadyDuck ? Of course I'd have to find the bottom of the rainbow (which doesn't exist).

Hey Nanette, I've been signed out the last week or so but had to sign back in after reading your latest plight. I am so sorry you are going through such a struggle right now. You will get water soon, don't know how but I'm sure it is being seen too.
Are you able to stay warm? Hugs.

Costochondritis is painful. I get it and they think its part of my psoriatic arthritis. It can feel like a heart attack. I'm sorry you had it. I'm sorry to hear about your poor kitty. You definitely need a generator or something. We lost power for about five days along with cell service. Hope things get better for you.

Texas is going through some horrendous time with this weather from what I'm seeing on the news. That is such a shame it has directly impacted both your health and the loss of your cats.
"Sadness flies away on the wings of time." I hope your sadness over your current life's difficulties is brief.

Please try to stay positive. I know all these things happening at the same time can be hard to deal with but after the storm comes the sun.
Hang in there!

@nanette64 Yea the weather can be crazy sometimes.
It's been raining for a couple weeks straight here. It finally stopped. Thank goodness we haven't had any snow or ice.
