Good morning, friends.
The doctor found out yesterday that I had diverticulitis. I learned that most older people had diverticulus but when they get infected everything changes.
I read last night what the Mayo clinic had to say online and the severe pain is not an exageration.
I´m on antibiotics, diet and some pain drops for pain. And I have to take the pills every time because the result could be bad if I don´t take care.
The good part about it is that I called Leticia crying and she is here. Leticia had this same thing just before the pandemia and that is why she stopped working.
Now she cleaned my room while she cuddled me and then cleaned the kitchen in a way that I hadn´t seen after she stopped coming to my house.
I am in pain but I´m vey happy. She is a dear. Dixie called me to tell me to take the antibiotics at the exact time. It seems that this diverticulitis can get out of hand.
See you.

That is wonderful, that she will come over 3 days a week. You need some company and assistance, and hugs. Please rest and do everything the doc says for you to do. We all want you to feel better, Marga.

Oh, man. That sounds so awful. I am glad to hear that Leticia is there. She sounds like a very dear person. I hope you keep us posted. I'm so sorry you have to go through this.

I am actually glad to hear that as once you get it cleared up you can prevent it happening again. My dad would end up in the hospital almost every summer because he was determined to eat tomatoes fresh from the vine. Glad Leticia is there to help and can teach you what to do

Sorry about that. I know of someone who suffers from this and has stomach trouble very frequently. She has to be watchful about what she eats and even the quantity. Take care. Sending positive thoughts and prayers. Leticia seems so helpful, I hope that she can come for help more frequently.
