Inflammation and resting

 Did I share this with you before? It's the magazine with the article that was the outcome of the interview at the Postcode lottery.

This weekend has been quite calm not because I wanted to but I had to.

Let me begin from the beginning. Last week all activities started again like the Rheumatic association and we started with a budget meeting which I lead. Then we had working committe meeting and after that (but really the whole day) I was so tired and also in much pain.

So the next day I could hardly sit, walk, lie down or do nothing. Of course inflammation again in the joints of the pelvis. It's very painful, I get a kind of flu feeling. You know when you feel like you have a temperature, you are freezing and you are shivering and feel kind of sick and with bad pain in your joints. That's how I feel when I get these inflammations and it makes me, whether I want it or not, take it easy.

I had been looking forward to Sunday (yesterday) when I and my opera friend should have gone to the Royal castle in Stockholm and in the Crown hall watched an opera - Norma. I did already on Saturday realize that it was possible I wouldn't be able to go. I mean to sit on a bench for 3 hours with that pain had been insane. So we had to cancel it :-( and I'm so sad about that.

Today I have been working but still in pain. I'm on painkillers (not any strong ones) and they do their work for a couple of hours and then it starts again. OK, that's it. I'm done moaning now ;-) But wasn't I a good girl Jo resting when I needed to?

This week is also quite good. I work of course and there are a lot to do this time of the year. I only have one meeting planned on Saturday and nothing more planned for the weekend so I will be able to rest this weekend as well and hopefully I will be better after that.

I hope you are all doing good and are in good health.
Take care and have a wonderful week.

  1. Yes I'm happy you got to rest, but the trick is to rest a little before you get the pain! I think if I lived in Sweden I would stay home and keep warm until summer lol ;)

Anyone??

I wonder if anyone can see and read my blogg? I haven't had any comments in so long that's why I ask. Erik didn't win a Grammy last night but he had a blast and he and his fiancé looked just great! Another Swede, Ludwig Göransson, won 3 prices though. Congrats to him.

I have on popular demand decided to start writing again. I haven't had time to do this blog for a lot of reasons mostly lack of time. There is so much to do and so little time. Since I last wrote there have been a big change and it's my grandson. Yes, I'm a granny now to the most adorable boy, Eddie. He's now 19 months old and I love him to the moon and back. He's my joy and I'm so happy I can see him grow. I have really been there from the moment he was born (almost).  Always on the piano the first thing he do. His parents called me the morning of April 23 last year at 0415AM and said it was time. So I just rushed out of bed, drove to them and then drove them to the hospital. It was a long day before we they called and told us that Eddie was born in the evening. Only 1 1/2 day later I fetched them and drove the new little family home. Since they don't have a car I have driven them where they want to go. The first 6 months were quite difficult wi...

Sad day

Tonight Olle, my adoptive father that has been like my father almost all my life, died just before 9PM. It was very quick. I talked to the nurse at 6PM and everything was calm then. Just a bit over 2 hours later she called and said he's gotten worse. I asked how and she said his skin changed colour and that he could have 10 minutes or 10 hours left. I was just trying to get to my sister on the phone and ask her if we should go down when the phone rang again just 15 minutes afterwards and it was the nurse telling me that it was over. He went very peacefully and in his sleep. At the end he was given a lot of morphine so he wouldn't be in pain, which he wasn't. I called my sister but we both felt that we already had said our goodbyes and therefore didn't go down to say a last goodbye. He is probably up there somewhere looking down and sensing our feelings. We haven't been able to reach our mother yet and we probably won't tonight so I will tell her when I go there ...
