I want to taste food
The worst, the absolute worst, is not tasting food. I am missing a taste bud, many, some, a couple, a few. Does it matter? Nothing taste right. It is so hard to eat!!! I have eaten I cannot tell you how many pints of Ben & Jerry's ice cream because it is so rich that I can taste it. I am sure I am now a diabetic. I cannot go in public. That stinks too. I go from the house, to the car, to the clinic, to the car, to the house! Great huh. Every morning I look out the window, across the bay and thank God that I am not in that hospital. Isn't it ironic that I can see my hospital room from our bed. I do have alot to be greatful for. And of course what would I do with out the support of all of you. And I am not being cliche-really I'm not. Thank you :)

Jen,
ReplyDeleteThere's a book about a little mouse called Henri and he stores up the feelings and sensations of the light and warmth, feeling of the breeze and the taste of corn for the other field mice because during the long cold winter they will have nothing except what they can remember to survive. You my friend have a great memory so draw from it. The tastes and smells and feelings you get from food and when you come home, I will make you the most magnificent feast fit for a Queen! And every morning you look at that beautiful view from across the bay, thank God. So, when are we taking that amazing trip to the spa, girl.
xoxo,
