Am I alive or do I just exist?!

Tracy3 Comments

Remember these from July 2019. My wonderful bladder stones thanks to my wonderful urostomy. So I was supposed to get this taken care of back in August 2019. Didn’t happen because that’s when I had to go to the hospital because I thought I broke in my hips and my back when I was trying to get in to rehab. Thanks to Independence Blue Cross not allowing me rehab I was unable to get out of my bed so we kept rescheduling. Now with the virus I was rescheduled twice, and today they called to tell me it had to be pushed back to May 26. But it’s really only a tentative date because it may change again. So basically I’m filling up with so much bacteria and that’s probably why I feel a little clammy and not well at times. I try to do everything right but nothing ever goes right. Possibly because I am left-handed. 😂😂 I’m joking… Or am I. 🤔

I am trying to find the humor in all of this because that’s the only way I survive. But man, it’s getting harder and harder to laugh. I know I know, I should be glad because I’m alive. Am I alive or do I just exist. You’ll be the judge. 🤷🏻‍♀️😕

There’s an alien in my bladder

I’m wondering how many more are in there now. 😳

Have courage and be kind.

It’s mandatory to wear a mask in Los Angeles

Tracy1 Comment

Starting April 10, 2020 it will be mandatory to wear masks in Los Angeles. Non-medical essential employees must wear masks. Customers using these establishments must also wear masks. In the future, the city could start to hand out tickets if you do not comply.

Riverside county will also have this in effect. You may possibly end up with a nice hefty $1000 fine if caught without one. 

Personally I think this is a great idea. I am watching videos of people still going to friends houses, parties, the beach. I get it, quarantine sucks. Look at it this way, at some point you’ll get to do all your normal activities again. You have something to look forward to. So please stop complaining. Quarantine is my life and has been for six years. So please, just get over yourselves and do what needs to be done so we can get through this. #StayHome #StayTheFuckInside #WearYourMask #DoYourPart #Quarantine

Passover Blessings

TracyLeave a comment

To all who celebrate…

How to wish someone a happy Passover. This is from the Times article here.

You can also say “chag sameach,” which translates to “happy festival” and is the Hebrew equivalent of “happy holidays.” To make this Passover greeting specific, you can throw the word “Pesach” in the middle of that phrase — “chag Pesach samech.” To wish somebody a “kosher and joyous Passover” in Hebrew, it would be “chag Pesach kasher vesame’ach.”

Have courage and be kind. 🖤

Independence Blue Cross, I haven’t forgotten…

TracyLeave a comment

With everything going on right now I think they feel like I might’ve forgotten all about them… But nope!! If anything I’m thinking about it more. I’m still waiting to find out if they’re going to pay for the medical transport that they told me I was covered for. But wait a minute, then they told me I’m not covered for it. 🤔 I just hope they understand that they better get my money back to me at the “In”network rate. I’m still waiting for my check. The last I was told is he was going to check into it for me on march 20th. Now all I’m getting are crickets. I get it you’re probably denying a bunch of people for coronavirus testing and respiratory help. Seriously, you know you are! Just get on it, and give me back my fucking money! And be prepared, because at some point you will be giving me my rehab! I have not forgotten. 😏

Sharing this picture again so that more people start to really understand what’s happening in our country with our healthcare system.

Please everyone, stay indoors and be safe! 🖤

Have courage and be kind.
