Were you tested for Whooping Cough? :confused:
Hope you feel better!
It is almost time for Thanksgiving, my darling Zoe. We will miss you very much tomorrow. I am very thankful for the wonderful memories we all shared of you this past week or two.
I will always be thankful of the gifts you gave me every day, my little girl. The joy, the love and the laughter are the things I miss the most and loved the most.
Dad has been stopping by in my dreams all week. He always appears when I need him the most. I am hoping he brings you along tonight as I would love to see you again, it has been a long time.
I love you always, so does Dad and Koko. Koko misses you, Zoe.
Happy Thanksgiving darling. Mama loves her baby girl.
i am just popping through here addy and i am sending my heartfelt condolences to you for your furbaby zoe...i haven't been on here in sometime.wishing you much peace.i hope tomorrow you can share fond loving memories of her... patty (milo)meka xoxox
Thinking of you and holding you and Zoe in my thoughts.
Wishing you a peaceful Thanksgiving.
Sonja and Apollo and Ariel.
I think I may have to remove December from my calendar. Last year I tripped on a gutter buried in the snow and fractured my shoulder. This year, I was out in the factory and smashed my head on the corner of a shelf. I think I have a mild concussion as I am dizzy and off balance, having pressure in my head and it has been more than 24 hours since I smashed it.
Work is a zoo and I reported the accident but I am still going to work.
Tell me when it is January, ok?
OMGoodness, Addy :( You're such a trooper for going to work with a mild concussion, I wouldn't, so please do take care.
Hugs, Lori
oh my! I agree, work related injury, stay home!! They will survive without you for a few days till the dizziness passes. Does this mean you aren't sleeping either? Not suppose to sleep long hours with a concussion if I remember correctly.
Take care of yourself. Where is that pink bubble wrap when we need it. Gonna wrap it around your entire body! Head to Toe!
hugs
Go to the doctor, then stay home and happily let them pay you. That's what Workman's Comp is for. Use it! ;)
Big hugs,
Dear Addy
You should have an x-ray to see if you have a concussion. Don't play around with this.
Love Sonja
Another vote for getting checked out. Concussion can be really nasty please look after yourself.
Dear Addy-
My gosh...that's awful.
You know, friend of mine, I have noticed over time that you continue to go to work when I would not. The place will really survive without you for a day or two or three. As Sharlene pointed out, you should not be sleeping for hours after a concussion and you definitely should find out if it is a concussion or not. That IS what workman's compensation is for. :cool: I am so sorry this happened. You need to take care of yourself now. If you were playing for a football team, they would not let you back on the field until a thorough checkup had been performed and that there were signs to indicate when it got better.
I am sending along the pink bubble wrap. I'm not needing it right now.....although we all know that is subject to change really fast! :D
Don't just chuck December. It's been bumpy for you recently, but I remember some really fun times as well. I was in a Christmas store earlier this week and I saw this huge selection of bird ornaments and I immediately thought of you. I think you are really missing Zoe, that this is a hard time of year for you, and that you will get through this, as well. Even though you don't feel like it all the time, you are like the Energizer bunny. You are a woman with such strength and I am proud to have you for a friend.
Now go to the ER!!! :)
Love,
Sus
It’s complicated :( cant talk about it.
It takes me 2 days to make up work for every ½ day I miss. I cannot keep up. So the pain of missing ½ day of work is worse than going to work sick. Missing 4 days of work is a nightmare for me when I come back.:mad::mad:
I read they have to do a Ct scan and diagnosing concussion is hard.
I thought I would give it 3 days and see how I feel. tomorrow is 3 days.:):) Maybe it will be better tomorrow.
Okay, so no one covers for you if you are gone and it's worse when you get back as you have to try and catch up. That is sucky.
In the mean time, we will want a day 3 report on how you are doing. :) Cause you know, we care. :)
hugs
Addy,
Please don't mess around with this. It can be serious! I had a brain injury several years ago. I was hit on the head by a flying ball and was knocked out cold for over 4 min. Talk about terrified youngsters! The paramedics arrived and transported me to the ER on a backboard. I was not given a choice. As it turned out, I had a concussion and a spinal injury. I had killer headaches for several months. The only thing that helped was packing my head in ice to reduce my brain swelling. That was 18 years ago. I still get severe migraines. Supposedly they are called by chemical imbalance in my brain, but I don't buy it. I think they are related to that injury.
Please get checked out ASAP! We worry. :o
I will, I will file the report today and go to urgent care, I am worried about the dizziness and pressure on the top of my head and temple.
Thank you!!!!!:pJust cuz we care. Please keep us updated. xxxxoooo
Dear Addy that is not a good sign.
Will be praying for you. Take care of yourself. You should get a cat scan as well as an ex- ray to see if there is bleeding or bruising of the brain.
Hugs Sonja and Apollo
Blardy hell girl!! Honestly, you are a bit of a disaster magnet at times :eek: god it hurts when you whack your head like that. Sounds like you saw stars and still dizzy, so glad you are getting it checked out Addy! Hopefully just a bit of bruising to your noggin!! Hope you have put a big flag on that shelf so you don't do it again! Is must be busy time of year in your line of work too, so can understand you not wanting to miss it then suffer the repercussions of going back to an awful pile of work... but with concussion as I am sure you likely know, you might just need to rest up a bit! Well I guess the only good news today for you is IT'S FRIDAY!!!!!! :D BUT no girlie drinks for you until we know your brain is not bruised!!! xxx
hmm, and not sure you should be driving till you have the all clear on the concussion issue. Although I know that will just make your life harder :( Course if you were off work anyway with work comp, then...... :) :) :) :)
I do hope it isn't anything more than a hard knock, but i'm glad you are going to have it checked out. Best be safe.
Let us know the scoop!
hugs
Well I finally found an urgent care that can diagnose concussions so I filed my own accident report- that should go over big with the insurance company:):):):):) and off I go tomorrow morning. Still have headache and pressure, dizziness was better today. When I spoke to a triage nurse today she did not think the doctor would do a CT scan because I am not vomiting. So I guess that is good news and hopefully this ugly bump and bruise will just heal and all of this will be fine when the check me out tomorrow and it will just be a minor concussion and it will go away in a few weeks.
Have to drive, hubby has his procedure next week- I'll rest as I can.:rolleyes:
yes, Trish, I have people waiting for me to make sure their Christmas furniture is shipped out in time. After next week, I can have some down time.
I'm pretty sure this is a minor concussion, just need to make sure what I need to do for it.
Hope you well be fine.
Sonja
Dear Addy
Please take care of yourself. One foot in front of the other,do what you can and leave the rest.
Merry Chirstmas and a better year ahead.
Sonja and Apollo
Thank you dearest sister Sonja.
Seven wonderful Christmas celebrations we shared, my darling Zoe. I find that even though you are not physically with us this year, you keep popping in and out. The book I found from the two of us to Daddy in 2007, the 2008 calendar I found in the ribbon box with your photos and schedule for each month- even your twice a month weigh in recorded.
Your spirit lives on in our hearts and minds and I feel you presence so strongly today.
Your brother has a Santa suit and is going to distribute small gifts to Grammy's fellow residents. He is a good sport, Zozo, you trained him so well for me.
Merry Christmas my darling, my love,
always with me, forever and ever.
love,
mom
Happy new year baby girl, I hope you and the gang have one heck of a party! Don't let granpa get to carried away, he always liked egg nog this time of year.
Miss you, love you, can never forget you, I know we will be together again one day, zozo.
2015 with out you, doesn't seem doable, but I know I will survive.
Love forever and more
Mom
Yes Addy you will survive. I have and you will too!:p Our babies are together and happy, ready to party on.:D
Dear Addy
The loss will always be there,but so will the love the memories,the challenges. It will take as long as it takes to live with the loss of beautiful Zozo. You don't get over it,you just live with it.
Love Sonja and Apollo
Sonja that is so true, really explains it all and puts things into perspective.
As badly as it still hurts, I would not have missed loving Zoe.
Cleaning out the old umbrella stand, we decided it is just more clutter in the foyer, and down at the bottom is one of your red Kongs and the pink retractable leash I spent a small fortune on which you chewed in half.
Almost a year and I still find all things Zoe. Downstairs, I decided to empty the cabinets in the laundry room and way in the back was a plastic bag. When I opened it I found my dad's clothes, the clothes he wore to the hospital but never wore home or again. That really took me back fifteen years.
I thought you came to visit in my dreams last night, I finally slept.
Hard to say, I just have a sense of your presence today.
You are my little girl, always will be my most cherished love. Koko is fine, has blossomed so. You would be so proud of him,
I needed to find you today, I needed to speak with you, so I came home, here to this thread. This is where you are now, darling.
I love you more.
Oh Addy,
We miss Zoe so.
((((((((hugs))))))))
Hugs from me as well
Dear sweet sister in arms,wish Icould give you a hug. Know so well how you feel. Zoe was letting you know she is watching over you.
Hugs Sonja
You do know I am still sitting on your right shoulder, correct? Been here all along. I remember from Palmer how long that incredible pain lingers on. How wonderful it is that Koko has stepped up to the plate. I am sure he is loving the undivided attention.
Lately, Bailey comes, sits by me, and just stares at me. Wherever I go, she goes. She is disappointed when she must be left behind, but she is oh so joyful when we return. She always wants a hug from me. Her little tail is wagged so hard it makes her hips go side to side.
As I look back and read through a year full of posts, it's great to see your progress, your acceptance, your growth. Zoe was very, very special. She is remembered often by many.
Love,
Sus
Thanks to you all. That one year mark is fast approaching, finding Dad's clothes did not help the situation.
I am so blessed to have Koko and I have Zoe to thank for that. The only reason Koko is here was for Zoe. I brought him home for her when her best friend moved away.
For seven years, everything I did, I did for her.
I totally understand Addy. I gave my all to Buddy. Everything I did revolved around his needs. I'd give anything to be able to still be doing it now.:o
Zo knows without a doubt that her mommy loves her and will always love her. She will always be the light of your life.

I'd give anything to have my Apollo back. I feel the lose is even harder when you are the 24/7 caregiver. We are here to get you through this.
Hugs Sonja and Angel Apollo
