I didn’t mean to go MIA… | December 7, 2024

And I missed all of you.

Truth is, I’ve been in the hospital all week, with walking pneumonia!

(Pneumonia can “walk”?)

Feeling pretty rotten. And only able to check in but, not much else.

So, forgive me.

I’m back. But only at half strength.

(They should call it “crawling” pneumonia!)

    Thanks sweetie.

    I was going to call you from my prone state in the hospital (I was feeling very sorry for myself) but I figured you had enough on your plate.

    Here’s to your quick recovery! Lung illness is no fun, hard to get anything done when you can’t breathe 🧘.

    🙏🙏 Thanks for all you do.

    Rest is in order

    Can walking pneumonia trigger seizure events?

      Resting, because I have no choice. I feel awful today but I don’t think it’s a sign of oncoming seizures.

      I don’t know if pneumonia could cause seizures. It’s all a mystery to me.

    Oh my Phylis. I had to backtrack from the chicken soup to find this. How thoughtful of you.
