Una nueva iniciativa de la mano de mi querida Comunidad Ladies of Hive ha sido publicada (hace días, realmente); y atendiendo el llamado de mis amigas: @purrix y @antoniarhuiz, me he sentado a intentar resumir los acontecimientos de esta primavera.

A new initiative from my dear Ladies of Hive Community has been published (days ago, actually); and heeding the call of my friends: @purrix and @antoniarhuiz, I've sat down to try to summarise the events of this spring.

La primavera está aquí. Y es la semana de Pascua o de Pasión, religiosa o no, ¿Cuáles fueron sus planes especiales para esta semana que usted y su familia lograron?

Ésta primavera inició de manera inesperada, algo accidentada, con acontecimientos muy dolorosos y tristes, tanto para mi, como para mi familia.

La caída
Tras perder el control de la pisada, me he caído en el baño de mi casa, originando un desplazamiento de la rótula de mi rodilla izquierda, si bien, no ha sido la primera vez, a mi edad y peso actual, fue un hecho muy, pero muy doloroso; de manera instintiva incorporé mi rótula a lo que consideré su lugar.

Después de mi tercer grito de dolor, mi esposo llegó a prestarme los primeros auxilios, como pudimos, llegamos a la habitación, esperamos un momento para poder recuperar fuerzas, valor y calmar los nervios; procedimos a llamar al seguro y en hora y media después de la caída, ya me habían trasladado a la clínica en ambulancia, ya que necesitaba inmovilización total.

Tras salir del centro hospitalario, con un medio yeso y muchos vendajes, llegamos a casa: mi rutina cambió drásticamente, tuve que permanecer en cama, con reposo absoluto por 21 días, pues había riesgo de ruptura de los ligamentos con el menor esfuerzo.

Los Cuidados
Vivo en un Estado del país, algo alejado de mi familia, por razones de trabajo, por lo que mi esposo tomó por adelantado las vacaciones pendientes para poder cuidar de mi, de las mascotas, plantas y de la casa en general; hablando de las mascotas, una de ellas: Chiva, se mantuvo a mi lado desde el mismo instante de la caída, ella también forma parte de mi recuperación.

Las Terapias
Actualmente me encuentro realizando unas terapias iniciales holísticas, debido a que el seguro ha tardado en la emisión de las órdenes de servicio; mis queridas amigas y vecinas: María y Martha, me están realizado acupuntura, vacumterapia, gimnasia pasiva, entre otras técnicas.

Semana de Pascua
La semana santa, fue de mucha reflexión, preguntas sin respuestas del porqué pasan ciertas cosas: mi caída, la partida física de la madre de mis hermanos y la de una de mis mascotas (Catire); realmente, no entiendo aún si hay respuestas, lo que si ha sido una temporada de empatizar, ayudar al necesitado, orar por los enfermos y por aquellos que están privados de libertad de manera injusta, ser ese hombro que necesita el hermano que llora, estar presente cuando más nos necesitan; esa es la verdadera religión: la que habla con acciones y no palabras.

Spring is here. And it’s Easter or Passion week, religious or not, what were your special plans this week did you and your family accomplish?

This spring started in an unexpected, somewhat eventful way, with very painful and sad events, both for me and for my family.

The fall.
After losing control of my footing, I fell in the bathroom of my house, causing a displacement of the kneecap of my left knee, although it was not the first time, at my age and current weight, it was a very, very painful event; instinctively I incorporated my kneecap to what I considered to be its place.

After my third scream of pain, my husband arrived to give me first aid, as best we could, we got to the room, waited a moment to regain our strength, courage and calm our nerves; we proceeded to call the insurance and within an hour and a half after the fall, I had already been transferred to the clinic by ambulance, as I needed total immobilisation.

After leaving the hospital, with a half cast and a lot of bandages, we arrived home: my routine changed drastically, I had to stay in bed, with absolute rest for 21 days, as there was a risk of rupture of the ligaments with the slightest effort.

The care.
I live in a state of the country, a little far away from my family, for work reasons, so my husband took the pending holidays in advance in order to take care of me, the pets, plants and the house in general; speaking of the pets, one of them: Chiva, stayed by my side from the very moment of the fall, she is also part of my recovery.

Therapies.
I am currently undergoing some initial holistic therapies, due to the fact that the insurance company has been late in issuing the service orders; my dear friends and neighbours: Maria and Martha, are giving me acupuncture, vacuum therapy, passive gymnastics, among other techniques.

Easter week.
Easter was a week of much reflection, questions without answers as to why certain things happen: my fall, the physical departure of the mother of my siblings and that of one of my pets (Catire); really, I don't understand yet if there are answers, but it has been a season of empathizing, helping the needy, praying for the sick and for those who are deprived of freedom in an unjust way, being that shoulder that the brother who cries needs, being present when they need us most; that is the true religion: the one that speaks with actions and not words.

Hablando de primavera, ¿Cuándo fue la última vez que recibiste un regalo de flores, de quién y para qué ocasión?

Desde muy joven, he tenido la fortuna de recibir flores: cumpleaños, aniversarios, cortejos e inclusive, por concursos y hasta el ramo de novia de mis amigas que llegaban al altar, es por eso que siempre soñé con tener un jardín en mi casa, lleno de mis flores favoritas: rosas, orquídeas, cayenas dobles, lirios, calas, entre otras.

image.png

Por cierto, recuerdo todas las ocasiones, con especial cariño, me echaban broma en el trabajo, porque en una ocasión tuve que contratar un taxi para llevar los ramos a mi casa; quién me pretendía entonces, llegó emocionado con su ramo, muy modesto y resulta que mi papá me había enviado un arreglo de tres docenas de rosas de colores (mis favoritas), quiso esconder su ramo, pero no pudo, mis compañeros le empezaron a echar broma, diciéndole que había llegado tarde: tuve que mostrarle que eran de mi papá para que no se sintiera tan mal... por cierto, ese pretendiente no superó mis expectativas, espero que esté bien donde quiera que esté, porque es una gran persona.

image.png

La ultima vez que he recibido flores, es justo ahora: mis cayenas, orquídeas e inclusive mis plantas de vegetales, nos regalan sus hermosas flores cada día, alegrando nuestro pequeño jardín y sobre todo cada lugar especial que adorna mi casa; es por ello, que recomiendo tener plantas de todo tipo: ornamentales, frutales, aromáticas, así siempre, al pasar los años, nos aporta buenos recuerdos.

Speaking of spring, when was the last time you received a gift of flowers, from whom and for what occasion?

Since I was very young, I have had the good fortune to receive flowers: birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and even for competitions and even the bridal bouquets of my friends who arrived at the altar. That is why I always dreamed of having a garden in my house, full of my favourite flowers: roses, orchids, double cayenne, lilies, calla lilies, among others.

image.png

By the way, I remember all the occasions, with special affection, when I was teased at work, because on one occasion I had to hire a taxi to take the bouquets to my house; whoever wanted me then, arrived excited with his bouquet, very modest and it turned out that my dad had sent me an arrangement of three dozen coloured roses (my favourite), he wanted to hide his bouquet, but he could not, my colleagues started teasing him, telling him that he had arrived late: I had to show him that they were from my dad so he would not feel so bad. .. by the way, that suitor did not exceed my expectations, I hope he is well wherever he is, because he is a great person.

image.png

The last time I have received flowers is just now: my cayennes, orchids and even my vegetable plants give us their beautiful flowers every day, brightening up our little garden and above all every special place that adorns my house; that is why I recommend having plants of all kinds: ornamental, fruit, aromatic, so that, as the years go by, they always bring us good memories.

I'm sorry to hear about your knee... I wish you quick and full recovery as you get therapy and treatment.

And how sweet your Dad is to have sent you dozens of flowers then and it must have made your suitor down :)

Love your flowers, they are absolutely beautiful. And I agree with you, we gotta have various plants in our yards or homes 'coz they add joy to life :)

Take care and get well soon, !LADY

As a health Care professional myself I will avoid the joke about, "Taking a break."
What a way to spend your Holy Week.
Spending the three weeks off your feet may be a minimum as ligaments take more time to heal than bone. Getting rest and plenty of time to reflect, think and pray for others, gratitude for a fine family, and you'd cover a lot of ground before you go crazy from not doing much else. One day, we will get our answers and be astonished.

Thank you for your Entry @leticiapereira

Thank you very much for visiting me @kerrislravenhill!, it really hasn't been easy with the therapies and I have been prevented from joining Hive recently, that's why I couldn't reply to you earlier.
In spite of all the pain, I have been able to see that God knows why things happen; miracles are happening.
Thanks a lot!
