2 week follow up with no knee.

Oh Caz, I am literally in tears reading this - my heart goes out to you. As a mother I know exactly what you are going through! Nothing worse than to see your child in pain. We would rather it be us instead of them.

I will keep positive thoughts for your precious daughter that she gets through this ordeal and the healing process quickly.

I'm sending you a warm hug and even though I can't personally be there for support, please know you are both in my thoughts and prayers.

Betty

So sorry to hear this  . . you must be in a terrible state, and we can only hope that soon she begins to improve , the bleeding stops, and they are able to make her more cofortable, and start healing. I do hope so . .. 

Oh Caz I am sorry to hear your news.  Your daughter is so young, bless her heart.  As a mother myself you don't like to see your kids so ill.  I hope she recovers soon and you and her are in my thoughts.  Big hugs to you both.  Keep strong xxx

I do not have children so I can not imagine what you are going thru. I really hope they get a handle on what is happening with your daughter. It makes my little complaints seem so trivial. Best wishes

Oh Caz, that's awful news. It must be very hard for you to stay strong but I'm sure your daughter really appreciates having her mum there. I hope she improves soon. My thoughts are with you.

That is heartbreaking........we sort of expect things to wear out and break as we age but not for those that haven't even reached a half way point of life. I know having a daughter with MS has been draining but nothing like having a child in pain, I'm sure. Thoughts and prayers for a speedy and complete recovery are going your way. Keep us advised.

Thank you for your thoughts. I am heading back to the hospital in a few minutes. Veronica's transfusion took most of the night so she was sleepy when she face timed me this morning. 

She is still not able to keep any food down. I am thinking of taking her in some kind of food drink? What do you guys think?

She has been on the verge of a seizure overnight and she is terrified of having one alone.

The hospital is a 20 min drive away, so not far.

My knee is killing me, I think it's because I'm not having time to exercise it.

Thanks again.

She is on Endone.

Hi Betty,

Can you please relay all this to Jean? I have no time these days to do much.

Oh Caz

I'm so very sorry to hear about your daughter it must be a nightmare time for you..... 

And it's terribly hard not to cry in front of them when your heart is breaking.

My thoughts and love are with you

be strong

Hi everyone,

Well, Veronica is out of hospital. I brought her home on Monday night, but since then I seem to have slept a lot. She is still in a lot of pain and she saw her surgeon yesterday morning. He is going to track her menstrual cycle and give her the fertility drug as soon as possible. The only way to rid yourself of Endometriosis ( which causes infertility) is to have a baby. 

Her bruising is dreadful, it goes acros her stomach and round her back, down to one knee and up to her breast on the left side, where the ovarian cyst was.

I didn't tell you, the weirdest thing was ... She was in the exact same bed as I was when I had my TKR! Gave me the eebie jeebies!

So pleased she is home and hopefully on the mend.  Bruising sounds awful though.  How weird about the hospital bed though!   I hope both of you improve now and that you can also get back to recovery xx

It's her birthday today

Hi Caz, glad to hear your daughter is home, and, hopefully on the mend. She's had a really tough time by the sound of it and such a worry for you. Glad to hear you're sleeping - you must be exhausted. Hopefully the fertility treatment works and you'll have a lovely grandchild before long.

Mind you, a friend of mine's daughter, a twin herself, had a similar problem as your daughter, received fertility treatment and now has identical twin boys. The strange thing is, identical twins are not hereditary nor the type you usually get as a result of fertility treatment!! Nature is funny isn't it? They're smashing little boys 👬

Hope all goes well for your daughter.

Jen

Hi Caz,

The best of luck for you and your daughter! I have 2 daughters & the "window of opportunity" to have children has run out, due to similar problems as Veronica, so I understand how stressful it must be for Veronica right now! Hopefully she will produce a lovely grandchild ( or 2) for you, as Jennifer so graciously said.

I've come to accept my circumstances as things happen for a reason. ( what else can you do!) Disappointing but I can still spoil my friends grandchildren 😬

Happy Birthday to dear Veronica and take care of yourself mom!!!

X Betty

hi Caz 

what wonderful news about the fertility treatment for your daughter she seems to have suffered for something positive to come out of it.

it must have been an extremely worrying time for you and than goodness things have turned out ok.

you need to look after yourself as you will be no good to her if you get ill.

And how spooky for your daughter to be in the same bed as you were.

thinking of you both X

Jean 

 

Happy Birthday to your daughter and hopefully this is the start of a lot of healing and moving forward.
