A Virtual Life


I woke up this morning after having slept for nine hours for the first time in weeks.  Getting out of bed I was astounded at how much my body hurt.  My ribs, my Achilles tendons, my back, I felt like I had been on the rack!

Still, I was breathing easy and I knew that my heart had passed all the tests.  I am going to live, which sounds like a silly comment, but is good to know.  I took my new blood pressure medicine, which I took an hour before I fell into bed last night and an hour later I was ready for bed again!

Not just ready for bed, I was fit for nothing else.  I cancelled my appointments for the day and sat back.

On the good side I dreamed a whole day in a place that was interesting and with a person I found fascinating, but even in the dream I was sleepy and trying to sleep! 

Sure hope I adjust to this medicine quickly.
