Maddison thought for a moment; the offer was excellent, so she said, "Okay, I accept, Mom. Where will the crib go?" -
I just had a significant infection in my foot, due to a SLIVER! My foot skin is THICK! I had NO IDEA I had whatever kind of sliver until one day, removing my sock, I saw blood...I was getting into the shower anyway and me bending over to see the bottom of my foot is IMPOSSIBLE! BUT! I am able to lift it onto the side of the tub and see the bottom of my foot, and it was SCARY UGLY...all discolored and SORE! Well, I grabbed my medical grade tweezer kit (a very good friend of mine who is an RN "acquired" one for me WAY BACH when I owned my shop.....yeah the old bright light is long gone, but i have LED 6D cell Maglites, so lay that on top on the side of the tub, and the instant I began to go after what i THOUGHT was the sliver, it was a chunk of skin and I had an INSTANT 7/16-1/2" SPLIT through all 3 THICK layers of my foot skin....LOADS of blood and puss began erupting like a volcan and I called the VA, demanded I go to the ER....I could see INSIDE ON MY FOOT through 3 layers if skin that have to be almost 1/8" THICK (maybe thicker) and they irrigated it,m put me on a week's worth of antibiotics, telling me I am lucky yada yada yada and then, MINIMAL amount of prescription ointment and bandages (I LOVE wearing Crocs or sandals all summer long and NOW HAD TO weak socks/shoes for 10-14 days....It healed quickly, but I was told I GOT LUCKY as I work in my garden barefoot often and my nurse yelled at me...but I've ALWAYS done this, since i was a kid....LIKE feeling dirt LOL.... Thankful I escaped anything like a bine infection, but 100% understand HOW it can happen no matter how careful we are....whatever IS going to happen, IS going to happen, and we are 100% powerless to do a thing about it! Anyway! Very happy you are on the road to living again, without anything hanging over your head (I have several possible nightmares and 1 BADLY NEEDED surgery (Oct 6th, sinus reconstruction surgery...had this in 2004/5...spent a week in the ICU, intubated and WORSE, I was AWAKE when they pulled that tube! I clocked the one guy pretty solidly (that got me restrained!) as I was trying to stop them...hand signing "I need a pen and paper!" as I couldn't do anything but mumble and ALL I WANTED was PLEASE! FOR THE LOVE OF GOID! KNOCK ME OUT 1st....but no, no pen and paper and 30 years later, I STILL wake up in a cold sweat, remembering one of the absolute WORST experiences of my life! My ENT (even called/spoke to my 3 Dr's I asked him to so he understands my immune system (autoimmune issues) ARE going to SKYROCKET, same as they do with EVERY invasive surgery I have had since 2004.....PAIN CONTROL is going to be a nightmare and I will require 2-4x the "average dose" AND every 90 minutes for the 1st few days, then eer 2 hours afterwards (I am missing MOST receptors in my brain and my body scores "OFF TYHE CHARTS" as a "Hyper Metabolizer" so what last MOST PEOPLE 4,6 hours? WILL NOT LAST ME 2! I have the testing and medical records (2010 or 12 and more recently (which is also 1000x more specific) by the VA (caled their PHASER" test which specifies every receptor I lack (they're all listed, with alpha-numeric codes and there's thousands...and I am missing more than 2/3rds of them/// I asked this ENT to PLEASE call and speak to my non VA PCP, non VA Rheumatologist (both have been with me since Nov & Dec 2004 respectively) as well as my VA Pain Mgmt/ Dr or anyone on my pain Mgmt/ team" as they will verify I am telling the truth... He 1st promised me that IF I wind up intubated in the ICU and wake up, he'll GUARANTEE they knock me out BEFORE removing the tube....then he told me he was calling the 3 Dr's ( I handed him their names/addresses/number's etc. and that so long as they verify what I said is true, he GUARANTEES I will not have ANY problems with pain Mgmt! O asked him "WHY would I give you their names/numbers etc. IF I was making this up?" and he stopped DEAD, turned to face me, looked me in the eyes and told me "THAT IS THE *BEST* QUESTION *ANY PATIENT* HAS EVER ASKED ME!" which cracked me up LOL.... He told me he often hears this from drug seekers, only they never volunteer each Dr who knows me best, has witnessed this (with my non VA Doctors having each witnessed this countless times, which is what led to the testing as I had an in depth technical discussion with my PCP about his outboard and my nurse came in with my 2/mg IV Dilaudid and he was STUNNED, as I never slowed down, as if the only injected Saline...he asked me EXACTLY what I feel with the IV Dilaudid and all I feel is a rapid drop in the pain level, but it doesn't last long at all....NOTHING else! He asked if I feel "loopy", "spaced out", any different and NO! Then he asked me if I was self medicating...and I had NO CLUE WTF that even meant so he came out and asked me IF I was using ANYTHING not prescribed, especially illegal drugs and I was honest! I never did an illegal drug in my life! He asked my consent to test, I offered both arms to him...he cracked up and told me he :"wasn't taking the samples RIGHT NOW....BUT, that IS a pretty good sign!" and of course, either the next day or 2 later, he came in and shook my hand, thanked me for being honest, only now he needed to understand WHY which was the 1st time I heard the term HYPER METABOLIZER and learned I was missing well over 50% of the receptors in my brain for pain meds.... ANYWAY., I KNOW this sinus surgery equals 10-30 days hospitalized as the PAIN *ES{ECIA:L:Y MY "HEADACHE" which is NOT a headache NOT a Migraine...best description I can offer is if you close your eyes and push in on them, it takes very little before the pain is intolerable....well, I literally feel that, from BEHIND! It is LITERALLY as if someone is inside of my skull,. attempting to pop my eyeballs out of their sockets from inside my skull! IT OS UNGODLY *PAINFUL* and I have seen the BEST headache experts up/dpw n the East Coast...spent 44 or 45 days (total over 3 stays) in Jefferson Headache Ctr, they will NOT use opiates as their goal is to find the cause and treat it.....well, they were AWESOME, likely had 2+ dozen spinal taps there ive a 3 years apn with 3 samples from each tap as I ALWAYS have HIGH white blood cells in my Cerebral Spinal Fluid only there;s never supposed to be any...and he was sending 1 sample to ever lab he could think of, including 20% or so to the best labs on the west coast, MAYO,. Cleveland clinic....have to have had close to 100 "Lumbar Punctures" to date, and ALL sow the same thing! HUIGH WBCs i my CSF only NOTHING ever grows in a lab....I'll likely once again revist the QUOTIDIAN FEVERS for a few days minimum and the PAIN throughout my body will be 10x what it normally is! SO YES! HATE each new day as that means I am 1 day closer to that surgery...which I am terrified of!~ ANYWAY./....I got carried away (I AM GOOD AT SOMETHING LOL!) HOPEFULLY...you're GOOD TO GO for a long long time my man! Sincerely happy you had this done and are here to speak about it! PS....DAMN I miss a BUNCH of people all having conversations like this! WISH there were many more HERE interested in conversation, getting toknow people well to the point you know each other well enough, you start to get other's names, numbers, addresses and become REAL friends, many I have been friends with for 30 or more years....and PRAY I get to meet one day! As I said already (to many people) IF you ever find youself in NE Pa or are just passing through and want a beer and a burger OT just a coffee.....I'll buy the 1st round LOL! Take are! CptKirk -

Camila give it some thought, it would be easy to find get some detachable side rails for Madison's bed, then she came up with an idea. "Alright how about this after college tomorrow we will pick up some side rails for your bed, but we'll also set up your crib today and for Saturday and Sunday you'll sleep in the crib, but for the other day you'll sleep in your regular bed. How about that." -

Maddison thought about Alice, who must have a really big, high bed—and that scared Maddison. She said, "I don't mind sleeping in it for a few nights, Mommy, but I want to have a bed too—maybe one with side rails." -
By cute little kokiri girl · Posted
Camila figured that the changing table would be an easy answer, particularly since Madison wouldn't want to get her bed messy, the crib though was going to be tricky. "Mmmmm I mean a crib is in so bad your friend Alice seems to sleep in one and she looks fine." Camilla really didn't know if Alice actually slept in a crib or not but she figured she did.
