I'm assuming I must have put these somewhere, but I don't know where. My health is rapidly going downhill. In 2006, I was diagnosed with diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. Last March I was diagnosed with bone cancer, then chronic kidney disease and anemia. I'm on a lot of meds--some I take once day, some twice a day, one I take ten at one time once a week, and one I take one per day day for 21 days and then none or seven days. Three of them are for the cancer.
My arms and legs have gotten very weak, and I fall a lot and can't get up. Tuesday of this weak, I fell in my bedroom and was on the floor for about 26 hours until someone showed up Wednesday morning to check on me. I had nothing to eat or drink for that whole time and couldn't use the bathroom, except for urinating on myself a couple of times. Someone was kind enough to give me a walker that really helps. I was using a cane that didn't help much to keep me steady on my feet. Since that fall in my bedroom, I'm getting people coming around to check on me--something I've been wanting. A neighbor woman was kind enough to wash my dishes for me today. I'm hoping for more help like that. I've reached the point where doing everything myself is no longer possible, and I'm just short of 70.
