Days are long and boring. I have appointments I go to once maybe twice a week. That&#8217;s the only interaction I really get with people. I&#8217;m home sick. I miss my family. I miss my boys (dogs). I miss my bed. I miss HOME. I have ESA letters for both of my boys. Signed by my psychiatrist\/psychologist in Vegas. I have bad depry and I am bipolar. Which doesn&#8217;t help. Where I&#8217;m staying they don&#8217;t allow kids or pets. I thought it was against the law to deny a person their esa animal especially when they&#8217;re signed by their psychiatrist\/psychologist. I&#8217;m not doing well with my mental health right now. And as we all know&#8230; Mental health plays a huge part in everything you do. So I have emailed my therapist here in AZ. I understand they don&#8217;t want dogs here because they jump on you and that&#8217;s not good after transplant. But what I don&#8217;t understand is why I can&#8217;t have them till I get the call. I&#8217;m waiting on my therapist to get back to me. My boys are a HUGE part of me. For 14 years I&#8217;ve had my basenji with me at all times and sleeps with me. (Not while admitted). And for the last 6 years I&#8217;ve had my dobie by my side and sleeps with me as well. Now I&#8217;m in an empty bed. And it&#8217;s getting to me pretty bad. I cry off and on because I just miss and need them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This weekend a few of my family members are coming down here to visit me. I won&#8217;t have my boys but I&#8217;ll be able to see most of my family members. So I am looking forward to that. ????<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been in AZ a months now. Days are long and boring.
