Thats one heck of a lot of stuff to deal with while on treatment. I don't know
how you do it, I honestly don't! But I commend you for your strength and
courage Susie! At least there are only 3 to go.

Where are you? (geographically)

Kim

Darn!!!  That's got to have been some storm.  You're a real trooper,
Susie.  And to have to deal with that on tx.....WOW!
Sounds like you're dealing with it as best you can.  Don't overdo it,
stay rested and take it a day at a time.  With only 3 weeks left, the
light is at the end of the tunnel. Hang in there!!!

Well, Typhoon Chaba (or some darn name like that) hit us Sunday night. I
still wasn't feeling good from Friday nights shot. The landlord did not
block up my windows. They took care of their house, but left me to fend
on my own. I have three sliding glass doors and was scared half to
death. Rattled like they were going to break at any time. My house
flooded. Wind blows so hard that it blows rain in around the edges of
any windows. The electricity went out about 6 p.m. I think. Just in time
for it to get dark.   On Monday I was scooping out water. No carpets
at least. I finally left for a hotel, because I was actually still sick
and knew that I couldn't get any rest here with wet floors, no
electricity and no water. I got the rest of the water out of here
Tuesday. It is Wednesday now.   I've just spend the last two nights at
hotels. My dog is depressed I think. She hates getting her feet wet. The
electricity is back on, cable is on, but darn, no water and the house
stinks from the bad typhoon water. Wonder if this is water that actually
comes off the ocean. I imagine must be, so smells unlike rain water.
Am looking for another house to rent. So mad at the landlord I could
spit nails. I should be straightened out enough here by Friday so I can
take the next #$@!#$ shot.
Tin house next to me lost a side wall. One of my ladies at work lost the
roof to part of her house. A lot of folkes lost their homes.   This
has been the pitts. I think it is the worst typhoon to hit here in a
long time. Lots of folkes homeless and still in shelters.   Can't
discharge some patients home because they still don't have electricity.
If they are on breathing machines, they can't go home without
electricity!
Can't stand the smell. I found some folkes to help mop up and they came
by tonight, but couldn't do anything without water. Maybe I'll go back
to a hotel tonight. At least I can get a hot shower at a hotel. I took
my medicine in to pharmacy again to be refrigerated for me.
I couldn't get on line to see what was going on with everybody or to
bitch until now. Hope everyone else is fine and dry. Guess this could
have been much worse.
Susie (3 shots left)

The good news is that you only have 3 shots!
Good luck!!!

Boy Susie, you must be some kind of woman, to deal with all of that stuff,
and still manage to keep it together. You're stronger that I am, that's for
sure.
Goodness knows, I can hardly imagine what more life could throw at you,
whatever it is though, I feel you can handle it.Only three more shots left?
Piece of cake. No, No I really mean it. I could go for a piece of cake :-).
Must have been one hell of a scary night. Wishing you only good things. Hang
in there. Thinking of you.

It is Friday night here, the 27th..  We had a meeting at work at 4:00.
Another @#$@#%#@ storm is on its way and it may go from a tropical storm to
another typhoon by Saturday night or Sunday.  I can't believe this is
happening.  I just got folkes to help me mop the whole house last night.
Water was finally turned back on......    and here we may be having another
identical week to last week.  Between hotel rooms, cleaning supplies and
labor, I've spent a small fortune this week.

We still have patients stuck in the hospital because some breathers still
don't have electricity in their homes for their breathing machines.  We also
have a bunch o folkes still staying in shelters, which are located in the
schools.  The schools want the folkes relocated so they can open up school
again.  .  One of our employees in my department hasn't had electricity all
week.

Well, I'm taking shot 22 tonight.  You would think that the weather could
wait for me to be finished with these shots and get moved to a safer house.
Guess that is rather narrow though.  I could have been without electricity
all week, or I could have been living in one of those shelters.

Hope everyone else is safe and dry, and having minimal sides.

Susie

What a way to top it all off. The Island will bounce back and so will you.
Do us a favor Susie when you go negative for Hep C and the next Typhoon hits
dont do any Fred Astair numbers like "Singing in the Rain" ect. They may
lock you up! buster
