My plan was to leave yesterday for a fun little trip to Florida with Sarah and Ida. That is not exactly how things played out…

It’s true that I DID get to be away from home and I WAS waited on hand and foot and I WAS lounging around doing nothing…but in the hospital, not Florida. 😖 The good news is that I got to go home today! Yay! 

I’d been in the hospital since Saturday due to intestinal bleeding and anemia (my hemoglobin was 6.8). But after three units of blood (Now I understand why the vampires love it so much! 😆) my hemoglobin is finally stable at about 8. I had an IV infusion of iron and then got to go home!

Endoscopy showed no bleeding from upper GI, so I will follow up with my regular GI doc for more tests to figure out where the bleeding happened & plan treatment.

I have lots to appreciate about the excellent people and resources that keep keeping me alive and happy. Will post appreciations tomorrow! 💚💜💙
