Sick n' Tired of Being Sick n' Tred!!!

So ever since my being a paraplegic I have'nt been free from a uti yet. For sure! I've had one just about every two weeks it nseems. I'm only healthy for about a couple weeks and there she blows! I'm feeling lousy, incontinent, and just blaaaa. i eat healthy, no fast food, caffine, and I use the clean method to self cath me. I recently just read about high vitamin c intake helps alot. So now I'm on that. And I've been reading all about D-Mannose. A powered like sugar that actually sticks onto all that darn bacteria so the bacteria does'nt stick to the bladder wall. I really wanna try it. Any body ever tried it? But I'm just so burnt out of being sick. Yeah my psirits are in the right mode but being sick like this all the time makes me feel so unbelievably sad or something. When I 'm all fine , ya know without my uti. Watch out! I'm hard ta keep up with but when I'm like this, i suck!

If anyone reads this and has paralysis and little to no uti's please share with me your secret or any advise. Pweeeeeeeeez1 The one that i'm dealing with right now I think could be from an incident that yet again decided to bestow itself unto mwa. I had been diagnosed with a parasite. And had a effed up case of Montezuma's revenge. And being a para not being able to just run over to the toilet . Let me just say u don't wanna ever go through diarrhea and lil' to no energy and paraplegia all in one big lovely bundle tagether. Not fun. But yeah I think maybe that's why I got it now. So now I'm on flagyl, my lovely friend cipro and yeah so.I'm just hoping ta God I can get rid of this uti. And stay rid of it for evr or a supercalafragilisticexpialadotious long time. Ya know.When this fifst happened all the therapist and books say that the first year of a trauma like mine is the worst. I hope so cuz how long can my poor little body and everything go through this? Can't I die from too many uti's? Luckily my little boy Jaden is a good helper when I'm wek and stuff.okay here's a question. I mean I know I'm supposed ta empty my bladder all the way but what if my pee stops and I think I'm empty but not? Then what?Well i'm gonna check out. Bye

My Spirits are still high

So somehow someway my spirits since my accident (11-22-07) are aite.Let's see, there's no easy way for me ta put it , I was attacked. At my old home in Scottsdale Az. and in front of my son of all people. If your assuming Domestic Violence.No that was'nt the case. My little guy is 4, now that I think of that somehow someway saying up there he defines it comepletely.So as many times as i 've told the story verbally. Let me attemt ta write it now....Type . Exuse mwa! Uuuum well typical T-Day, except it was my very 1st on my own. Not with mom n dad as usual, my who I thought at the time was totally okay and trustable friend had no family, mother had past away just recently and I just did'nt wanna drive all the way out to their house 100 miles away last year. I had decided ta cook for Smokey (Jamil Sermah) and not till after this happened ta me did I find outfrom the detectives that he has like so many aliases.

But ne who to make a super long story short, considering I love ta talk 4ever. I had decided that day that we were not working out so well n I was 'nt attached ,neither was he so I thought. I told him I wanted to end it. And not in a weird way. We'd still be friends and da da dada. So he decided to try to kill me. I thought I was dead ta be honest, but I'm here right now writing this for anyone ta read. Hi my name is Jeanette I am a T-8 SCI. and for me survivor fits in just about right. But that's most of us noe that I think about it. Mines just pretty scary. Yeah but see ta me so is a really bad car crash or crazy boy jumping 500 ft. in the air n falling ta his SCI. Any who most people are usually just jaw dropped in front of me in awe and dis-belief but I'm out here. So yeah were all survivors in our own lil special way,I'm being a smart ass. So pretty much everyone that I know just can't believe how high my spirits are and that I don't seem phased or hit by it at all.

Well yeah the only things that suck for me right now are the constant Uti's, not having my car and going this long without being with someone intimately and just the way it use to be. Hey but if anyone does read me. Has anyone considered stem cell treatments outside the U.S.? I am, I figure it's worth a good chance. I just gotta raise money somehow. Well if anyone has any good advise for avoiding the uti's. Puhlease hook me up with the 411. Bye 4 now, me.

baby
