Fruits and sweets will be delivered to Becky tomorrow (it costs nearly $100 with delivery) with enough to share with Sarah for being her at-home nurse. Yes, she’ll be getting a HUGE Get Well gift basket that will certainly last longer than flowers and hopefully be a bit unique as well. Flowers are lovely, but you get them, you ooh and ah them, then they’re dead in a week. I just didn’t want to send so much to a hospital. Also, you never know if the staff may help themselves when no one’s looking. I don’t expect her to like everything the basket includes, so hopefully Sarah, Tammy or someone else can have what she doesn’t want. I’m excited for her! Wish I could be there to see the smile I know it will put on her face. She deserves it after going through such a scary and painful ordeal. I wanted to really go all out with additional gifts like spa gift baskets, flowers, tea, coffee, wine and more, but due to car issues, saving for a new roof, and other expenses, this is the best we can do for now. I’m going to pretend I didn’t see the GoFundMe account Sarah set up for her to raise 2K.

Since I can’t seem to go more than a day or two without something, today’s complaint is being lightheaded. Sometimes you don’t realize how helpful something is until you stop using it. I stopped the Amberen a couple of weeks ago and I’ve been lightheaded a lot lately. So I went back on it yesterday and found myself feeling much better within an hour. And there I had been laughing at someone who said they felt better a few hours after taking it when I was reading the reviews on the stuff, thinking it was just the power of suggestion.

We did the third ear wax removal treatment and I again took the Amberen. Hopefully, I’ll feel better soon enough. The lightheadedness, which comes and goes, could be that I’m low on thyroid now, but I doubt it. I was pretty dizzy last summer but wasn’t skipping doses. Also, I wasn’t lightheaded before being diagnosed. It’s more than likely the peri.
