I’m sorry to hear about the pain @Hopeandlove
Remember to keep letting the staff know when the pain first starts increasing. It’s easier to manage pain once you’re on top of it. So it’s better to get more pain relief early before it ramps up

@Till23 it came on rather suddenly. They are doing their best to get on top of it.

@Eve7 It's taken the edge off. Not having much luck getting to sleep, having chest pains and breathing is shallow. This body is growing weary.

Thank you @Eve7 💙.
I'm trying to imagine my scenes to escape this reality. I want to rest, to close my eyes, I long to be at peace.

Maybe you could walk through “a host of golden daffodils 🌼 “.
Do you know the poem Daffodils by William Wordsworth? I often think of it when I can’t sleep.

@Eve7I'm scared and I asked for a nurse to sit with me for a while. I asked if she could read that poem for me and she gladly obliged. Thank you for sharing, it was beautiful, I closed my eyes and imagined being there amongst the daffodils 💙.

We are all thinking of you @Hopeandlove.
I hope the scared feeling has gone away and you can finally relax and think about your ocean journey tonight
