I've been in the hospital with sepsis since Tuesday, and my blood cultures finally cleared up so I get to go home hopefully today or tomorrow.
Let me tell you something though: being admitted to the same hospital where you *just* watched your grandma die is HARD to go through.
Hey new @TimHortons in Bay City stop telling your customers to park in the ONLY accessible spot to wait for drive thru orders. That's not what that spot is for.
I miss knowing that she was praying for me and thinking about me. My partner and I are having our commitment ceremony this Saturday and she and my lolo were supposed to be there. I was going to ask her to play piano. I was so excited to celebrate with her. I miss her.
It's been a month and a bit since my lola left this plane of existence. I miss her so much. I want to call her and hear her voice. I want to see her smile while we chat about our friends and the things we've been doing. I miss taking a nap on the couch while she plays piano.
My grandma's current hospitalization was completely preventable, and I blame every voluntarily unmasked and unvaccinated person out there. I blame the CDC and the govt for pretending COVID is over. I blame the messaging telling her that vaccines were enough to protect her.
My lola is so precious to me. She survived Japanese and US colonialization and WW2 in the Philippines. She taught me joy and music and love. She carried her young children across the sea to the US - searching for a better life. She loves and loves and loves.

Funny to see on my chart that I now have EDS - Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and EDS - Excessive Daytime Sleepiness.
Any sleepy people want to come over for a nap party? We'll put on sleepy music, get out all the blankets and pillows, and cuddle with the dogs and cat.
