Thursday
Another rough day. Thank goodness I have Dave to care for me and Lily Bear to absorb my tears.
Bad insomnia last night. Exhausted. Depressed. Worried about my brand-new health mystery. So skinny. Never hungry. In pain. Itching from adhesives. (Tried new super-hypoallergenic bamboo bandages recommended by a reader — and they make me itch. Intensely frustrating) Restless Leg Syndrome is torturing me.
Miserable. Basically just lying in bed and crying today. I feel so hopeless.

Precious Kara, what life offers us is love and art. I know that Dave and Henry’s family and your mom and all of us and the birds and the music will offer you these and hold you in our arms through this rough patch.

I love you. Chronic pain is incredibly exhausting and worse than exhausting for how it uses up mental strength to try and cope. I’m so sorry. Sending love from afar.

Oh, dear. For restless legs, warm water bath with some movement in it is my go to…I wonder if you can buy a gizmo to bubble the water? I had the contractor build water jets in my tub but I am sure there is a cheaper way…
