4 weeks in hospital🙁🙁 feeling low
4 weeks stuck in hospital 🙁 spent most of the day staring at the ceiling, crying to myself. It was my birthday 3rd November, I had surgery on the 4th.it's thanksgiving in America it seems like there's no one here who wants to talk to me right now. I've been relying on this site to get me through the last few weeks. Several months ago I caught pneumonia, and during that I lost all feeling in my upper left body, (I'm already paralysed from the waist down, they had to amputate my legs a few years ago) but there past couple of months, I've only been able to move my l right arm and head. It's gotten so frustrating at times, and depression is getting harder to fight off. This is my second spine surgery in the past couple of months. My neural passageways are still working for my upper body so the nerves and muscle will heal. And it has been getting better I can move my hand and make a fist and raise my arm just a little bit🙂 I'm also due to have another psychiatrist appointment soon,I have a new psychiatrist who thinks I need a new diagnosis as new symptoms have come up these past couple of years. Anyway depression as hit hard, I won't give up, but I feel like I want to
@Tinywhisper11 Hi. I'm sending hugs and love 💕 💕 💕. It must have been tough with the pain and everything. I've seen you here and there in the community, and your posts brighten my day! Especially those about Christmas. You're such a kindhearted person and have so much joy even in the midst of your pain. Thank you for your cheerful posts here. You make the community brighter. Sending love again 💕 💕
@Tinywhisper11 Hey you ❤️ That would totally suck being stuck in the hospital for so long 😞 Hey it's great though that you can make a fist and move your hand! You'll be back to doing your artwork soon hopefully ❤️
@mytwistedsoul they are just keeping a eye on my blood pressure and temperature, then I can go home😁 hugs you tightly ❤ it must be hard for you all around with the holidays coming up🤔🤔🤔 I'm gonna think of a way to give you a xmas present🤔🤔🤔 a virtual present. Thanks for your kind words, I love you ❤
@Tinywhisper11 I hope your blood pressure stays in the normal range and your temperature stays steady too ❤️ So you can go home 😊
@Tinywhisper11 Hey Tiny. I’m sorry that this time in hospital has been so long. It makes me sad to hear how hard this has been on you. You can’t give up because then everyone who loves you will give up and then everyone who loves them will give up and it will exponentially spread across the world and eventually the entire universe…. So…. No pressure, but don’t give up ❤️ We all love you and you know we’re thinking about you every day. I love you Tiny ❤️
@PineTreeTree oh wow! I don't want to end humanity😰 and even worse than that, I don't want to have to hear you singing😱😱😱😱😱😱😂😂😂😂😂😂 thanks pine you always know how to make me laugh ❤❤ I love you ❤
@Tinywhisper11 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@Tinywhisper11 hugs you and gives you an entire truck of ice-cream 🍨🍦

@Tinywhisper11 Hey Tiny. I'm sorry you're going through all of this and dealing with those emotions. One of my uncle's actually had back surgery this passed week on Monday. He has had multiple surgeries which haven't exactly helped. It hurts me to hear when loved ones are going through pain. I'm always praying for you, hon. You have such a positive and uplifting attitude which I know personally isn't simple to have. My right eye is dependent on my left eye to see. I've never known what life would be like being able to see clearly out of each eye which is sad, yet also rewarding in some ways. No matter how lonely the world may seem I'm thinking about you and I'm sure there are others who are doing the same here and close by. Message me anytime hon. Girls rule :)
Hi, Lola!
I can’t imagine the strength it has taken for you to endure everything you’ve been through these past weeks.
You are incredibly brave, and at the same time that you are going through those super tough things, you continue contributing so much to our Community.
From your very uplifting (and hugely successful) icebreakers, to sharing your struggles here. It takes a lot of courage to show yourself vulnerable and share your feelings. It makes you very lovable and humane.
It’s so bad how isolating being in hospital has been for you. Spending your birthday and these weeks there, with physical challenges, surgeries, and the emotional toll, it’s a lot for anyone to bear.
Anyone would feel overwhelmed and frustrated with that.
You’ve already been through so much, and still, you’re finding more and more reasons and motivation to keep moving forward.
That persistence and determination in the face of great challenges is a strength you have, very characteristic of you, and anyone would be hugely proud of that.
The progress you mentioned with your hand, being able to make a fist and lift your arm, is very encouraging and promising I think. Your body is healing itself. You have that capacity to heal.
When you are in those situations, these achievements are great steps forward.
You are a true spiritual warrior, so determined to keep fighting no matter what.
As I see it, it might end up being positive that you have a new psychiatrist supporting you. Sometimes a new perspective might bring new ideas and new possibilities for feeling better.
And on top of the professionals, you have all the 7 Cups community rooting for you, and you can PM any of us when you feel bored or overwhelmed and want to chat for a while.
You’re loved, loved, loved here. You might be the most loved person in Cups. Since you joined Cups, your presence made a huge difference, your many amazing contributions made hundreds, even thousands hurt souls feel at least a little better. You brought smiles to many faces. And tears that remind us we are all vulnerable, we are all human, we are all in the same boat. Your presence in Cups matters a lot.
You are hugely important for all of us.
Sending you much love ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
And massive wishes that you get well soon.

So many hugs to you, if you want them, Tiny. You're going through a lot. 🫂🫂🫂🫂
I hope the depression lifts. I hope you can move more easily soon, hopefully without pain. And I hope you can be comfortable at home, and hopefully be able to connect with people and not feel so lonely.
You're not alone. I'm thinking of you and I hope you recover well and soon. 🫂💕💐
