(11,296 posts)Brother died of covid at the end of November. Hospitalized for kidney infection in January. The day after I got home Sheris mother died. I was responsible for arranging brothers interment in Iowa he lived in Arizona. My sister-in law has been sending tons of my brothers stuff to me. (Would you like his 7th, 8th, 9th, 11th and 12th grade yearbooks. I dont, either. How about penciled critiques on paper towels by students when he was TA fifty years ago. Who saves this stuff? ).
Prostate procedure in June. (Two weeks of bloody urine and a little discomfort. Suuuure). Tuesday the clotting was so bad I could no longer urinate. To the ER for the second time in a month. Spent the night in ER. Clots kept clogging catheters (three thats fun). Three hour surgery yesterday to evacuate bladder clots. Now in hospital.
FUN!
Sorry for the rant, Deb.

(11,296 posts)Ive been on Eliquis, which is a blood thinner. They think that caused bleeding, and urine in the bladder causes it to clot, which finally stopped me from peeing Monday afternoon.

(5,443 posts)The Road Not Taken ~ Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
We both followed our heart's desire
