Hola amigos espero que se encuentren excelente, el día de hoy les traigo un video estilo storytime sobre lo que he vivido estas últimas semanas. No he tenido mucho ánimos, ni fuerzas para todo lo que estoy viviendo, sin embargo este es un medio en el que trabajo y me permite un poco de normalidad.

Hello friends, I hope you are feeling great, today I bring you a storytime style video about what I have lived these last weeks. I have not had much encouragement, or strength for all that I am living, however this is a medium in which I work and allows me a bit of normality.

I will try to translate the story of this video for you:

Although the video is in Spanish, I will tell you a little about how I have been feeling for the last week. As I have said before, I have sickle cell, I have had this disease since I was born. Last Friday I was going for my hematology consultation and I started to feel bad at the health center, they told me to go to the hospital because they could not treat me well there because of the anemia. I went home hoping that rest would help me and on Saturday I could not walk alone or to the bathroom because I was so weak, dizzy, tired and my heart was pounding. Fortunately a friend asked for permission and took me to the hospital and they did different tests: X-rays, hemogram, abdominal ultrasound, urine test, electrocardiogram, most of them were kept in the emergency room. But I took pictures. And everything was relatively good, my hemoglobin was high at 8.7(yes that is high for me).

Anyway, in the hospital they only hydrated me and recommended hospitalization but there was no bed, so I decided not to stay because that would make me worse, without a good rest. On Monday I went to the hospital again for some tests and on Tuesday I went to the hematologist with the results of them, I have a high D-Dimer and the iron deposit in the blood called Ferritin is super high at: 922 when it should be at most 200. In addition to that the doctor gave me as prediagnosis: Aseptic Necrosis in the left leg because since last year I do not walk well and that must be precisely because of the problem of thrombosis that my body is generating. Emotionally I do not know how to feel, but I know that I must put a little more effort to feel better. I tell you this is something super intimate and I could pretend that I feel good, but I do not want to do it, because fragility also exists and you have to have space for it. This is one more relapse, I don't know what comes next but I will keep on telling you, don't you think?

Soy una persona optimista, o al menos, trato de asimilar bien las cosas pero no es fácil a la primera debo tomarme el tiempo para ello. Y en este espacio quise contarles un poco de eso. Hoy me siento un poco mejor, pero tengo gripe ahora, así que mi energía dura poco. Tengo pendiente hacerles varios videos y sobretodo el podcast, pero no he podido, así que me disculpo.

I am an optimistic person, or at least, I try to assimilate things well but it is not easy at the first time I have to take the time for it. And in this space I wanted to tell you a little of that. Today I feel a little better, but I have the flu now, so my energy is short-lived. I have pending to make several videos and especially the podcast, but I have not been able to, so I apologize.
