Dear Kitt,
Thank you so much, Kitt. Been trying to get to your posts to read but with a husband with pneumonia (he is hopefully better and on the mend) and having withdrawal problems from the Zyprexa and doing Christmas things I have had to delay my reading. Hope to get to it this afternoon.
Wishing you and all your family love and peace and all the best of health and happiness in 2015!!
xx ellen

Reading my blog is the least of your concerns. Hope that your husband heals soon. Pneumonia can be scary. Hope also that your withdrawal symptoms abate.
Merry Christmas and Happy 2015.

I have been terrified, especially since my husband’s mother died of a respiratory illness but she had had serious illnesses before. My husband’s health is fragile. I appreciate your good wishes and concern. He seems to be on the mend. I know you have your hands full with parents on both sides in various stages of illness and do not know how you cope with it all. It is admirable but I did read some of your posts and one comment addresses this. Again all the best for the holidays and the new year to you and your dearests! Hugs, Ellen

My sister and I have always feared that my mother would die of pneumonia secondary to lymphoma. Horrible thing living with a compromised immune system. Because of my asthma, when we lived in the Mojave Desert I got scary sick with bronchitis that developed into pneumonia. I could not speak nor sleep, for my coughing went unabated. I hope that your husband heals soon. My allergist here treats me aggressively with very strong antibiotics and a nebulizer when I get upper respiratory infections to prevent complications. My asthma is better controlled now because of my allergist (inhalers and immunotherapy).

Oh, that’s really scary. Yeah, my husband was having asthma with the bronchitis that turned to pneumonia. He was able to sleep fortunately most of the night but in the past that hasn’t been the case. Our doc gave him a nebulizer treatment and said to go to the ER if that happened again. Terrifying in all kinds of ways. We live in New York City and have had trips to the ER. A definite level of hell.
I am sorry you have a compromised immune system. That was what my doc thought I had until I found out about the Zyprexa interactions with benzodiazepines. Husband is better, thanks be to God. He is on inhaler called Dulera but was on a second run of a stronger antibiotic and Prednisone.
I am sorry, too, about your Mom. It is all so scary.
BTW, do you find drinking lowers your immune system. It does with hubbie and I think all the benzodiazepines affect the immune for both of us. I will pray for the health of all of you. xx ellen

My mother and mother-in-law have the compromised immune systems. I have allergies and asthma (immunotherapy to build up resistance to allergens), as does my son (and husband, but he is not treated for such – internist does not treat as aggressively as allergist, and he has not seen allergist yet).
Thank you for your prayers. I will keep you and your husband in my prayers. Love, Kitt

Dear Ellen, I’m sorry to hear that your husband is ill, especially while you are dealing with that withdrawal. Christmas is such a bother, to say the least. This year I don’t feel depressed, as I have done many many times in the past and I’ve only had a little anxiety. It’s a difficult time for so many people and I appreciate your good wishes to those who feel something less than the joy that we’re ‘supposed’ to feel. I send you all good wishes, Ellen, not for Christmas, for always. x o x
