My new edema strategy might be working. I am still at it with this edema nightmare, but there might be light at the end of the tunnel. I am still not walking and now it's been about 10 days. I am a bit

My edema symptoms are still with me and I am trying to heal. These are some of today's details of what is happening and what I am doing about it. This would have been posted yesterday, but working on this

I do not recall any time I have celebrated Valentine's Day in my life. I know we exchanged cards in school events, but that is not really a personal thing. I have had a husband and various boyfriends during

Today is a bit of a hard one, sprinkled with hope and optimism. You can read about how I got injured in my recent post here: Recovering from my voyage in to Bangkok, and soon to leave. Today was the day

Teaching little kids to ski was the most rewarding job I have ever had. I already wrote a post for freewrite about it. That post summarizes how I got that cool job and the perks and great money that came

I looked up how to stop the fluid leaking out of my legs to see if I could do anything myself. There are a lot of ideas. I tried. I failed. One part did seem to work a bit. I found the advice to scrape

I hold @team-ccc in great value on STEEM. I like the contests, the interaction, the prizes, and the great posts I see from others. I think this place is one of the best for new people when they start on

Today I am having a very hard time with both edema and joint pain. My legs have fluid running out like rivers and all of my bones are on fire. In a few hours I can go to a pharmacy if I can make it there,

CCC is a bit of a posting refuge for me this week. I have been sick for so long that it is hard to think what to do. I get up out of bed for an hour at a time, and sometimes go back to sleep with nothing

This week's Monday Mission by @qurator asks us to show off our coloring skills. Mine are non-existent, and this is the first time I have used MS paint in many a year. Here is my stab at improving a creepy

Recently I wrote a post with my recipe for savory instant oatmeal when you have no kitchen. I love oatmeal and try to keep it on hand. I’m not too fond of it sweet, but I love it the way I make it. It’s

Nasi Lemak caused a stir in the Twitter-verse this week. A lady tweeted a photo of her admittedly awful looking offering from British Airways and made a dis at the whole idea of this meal: source Nasis

I've been on a mission to spread the word about ccc contests lately. I feel like these are some of the best places for new STEEMers to start posting to. The prizes are very good and you will get interaction

I don't remember anyone telling me stories when I was young. I was an early reader and and early writer and pretty much found my own stories. A story from my childhood is that my dad found me under the

A few years before I lost weight, someone's dad came to a birthday party I held for my son. I had not thought of this man as fat before, but now he was very thin. He looked great and told me he had found

Today was yet another day of rest for me, while praying this edema will finally heal. I am now taking a full dose of medicine each 18 hours and this is seeming to help drain some of the fluid out. I got

I called the photo above "Pink Fire" when I first saw it. I caught this sunset cloud off my balcony in Bangkok. This photo is not processed, and shows a color I never expected to see in the sky.

Potatoes are one of the "most sprayed" foods in the us, and if you are not getting organic, you should not be eating them. Potatoes have been on the Environmental Working Group's Dirty Dozen

I went out and got more medicine for edema the other day, and have been out for the count since then. You can read about my epic journey at fitinfun. Now, three days later, I am just drinking fluids, taking

One of my favorite posts to make each week is my entry to @marblely's Thursday Favorites. This post always gives me something to think about and I enjoy seeing the entries from others too. It's nice to
