The sweetest thing..

-
My best friend yesterday had to have an operation (details of op withheld). We spoke about this on Sunday night and she was terrified. She hates needles which is a massive factor when having an operation. Anyway - she somehow managed to blag her way to the front of the queue and got done first (she has private health care!).

I get a call at 10.40. She's all done. She sounded very drunk as she had ONLY JUST been taken back to her room.

Later on, on her way home she calls me again. She tells me that as soon as she came round enough to know what she was thinking all she wanted to do was 'Call Sarah'. Hence why she was still very much drowsy when i got the first call.

I think that is so lovely. She didn't want to call her auntie, or cousin who are very prominent in her life (since her mother died in 1999) - it was me.

I adore my friend. Absolutely love her. We've been friends now since 1990, thats 20 years this year. When she moved away, i was devestated, but i think we talk more now than ever before. We have contact every-single-day and i like that!!!

I'm going to see her today, hope she's okay :)

From the mouth of an EX agoraphobic

-
A friend of mine yesterday pointed out what a person had written on their blog about being agoraphobic. Said person is an EX agoraphobic...this is what was said. "Agoraphobia is a selfish state of mind. Its completely "curable", and yet some people just wallow in their own self-pity and will never ever get over themselves and recover. When you are so worried about yourself all the time, how can you possibly be a good mother to someone else? Or a good wife/girlfriend/friend? I've unfortunately been the agoraphobic, and I've been the agoraphobics friend. As the friend, it was miserable. Nothing was ever about anything else but them. It was annoying and frustrating. And completely in their hands to change it, but they wouldn't. Because they're too selfish and self centered. Those aren't qualities people like in a person." Opinions please?

It DID get worse..

...now there's a shocker! I have spent the entire evening in hospital. We had to call an ambulance, these feelings in my heart were insane. I was sat in the back on the ambulance and they did all my obs. I was tachycardic, my BP was really high (usually its stupid low) and my ECG was showing Atrial fibrillation, meaning the top two chambers of my heart are beating faster than the bottom two. I was put on oxygen as well because my breathing was a little bit crappy. The medic man stuck a candular in my hand and hit a valve apparently, my hand swelled up in seconds, it was so painful. Got to the hospital and did all the necessary things and then we had to wait...and wait...and wait. Where they'd stuck that needle in the back of my hand and hit the valve, it started going dead. I couldn't feel 4 of my fingers! I called to get someone to take the bugger out. I'm left with a lovely bit blue bruise this morning. My step-father was called to pick us up because we thoug...
