I get so scared you know... the nurse came in today to order physical therapy and I had to get a little forceful. You see theres this thing about me; a super power some say. I'm tenacious and I dont give up on things that I know to be correct about. So when the RN came in I told them, You are aware my oxygen drops every time I multi-task right? not only that but I'm

inappropriately dressed!!

This nurse and I went round and round this morning. He wanted me out of bed and walking and I guess because they came in every 4 hours and checked my vitals that everything was fine. That he was right and I was wrong. That he was the professional and I was the patient. Oh dear Mr. Nurse, I am more that that. I am the other half that you can feel or see. Hook me up to a meter, I dare you and you will see.

So he brought in the machine and put on the oxygen meter. As I sat here, any time I tried to hold my torso up and move around my arms, talk put on make up, shit Fight with Liz about the kids; oxygen drops. If I can't do that how can I take care of 2 teenage kids cook a meal while I'm yelling at 1 to get in the shower and the other to finish their homework? I need to be able to keep up with my kids; at a time where they're going to start testing my patience. All the crazy stuff they're trying to get away with behind my back my oxygen drops to 89??? That isnt normal. I'm so tenacious I made sure to grab a pretty nice amount of footage proving this fact too; video evidence because it's what I do. I am a video girl and I am your video creator; who just so happens to be inappropriately dressed

I'm still here waiting for my therapy. I made it very clear it's not that I don't want to do physical therapy, it's that I do not wanna pass out again like I passed out here in the bathroom. The nurses weren't there for me I wanted help to the bathroom; they weren't there and then when I was using it and I tried to pull the string I passed out and I hurt myself in the here, in the hospital !!! Maybe they actually listening to. Maybe they had the meter in here to do some recording. They need to continue to listen to me because I'm the other half they do not see, they cannot feel. I'm not going to settle for anything less than the quality of life that I deserve. I don't believe that's too unreasonable, do you?
