"Remembering....


Today I spent the day chasing scheduled doctor visits and tying up loose ends...Ugh.
The last few weeks have been a nightmare...
First we lost hubby's oldest brother...a sweet and gentle man we will all miss.
Eleven days later his wife died of pneumonia and went to that other place to join him. She was a lovely spirit too. Together 65 years!!!
"I wonder.... what are they doing in heaven today?"
Her memorial is tomorrow..
Enough!!
Our hearts are so heavy with all this sorrow.
Their daughters are distraught beyond comprehension. It's gonna be bad tomorrow.
Today wasn't a cake walk..I had to have a CT scan...yuk, and when I got home the little tummy was hurting, and just to make it a little worse, I think my gall bladder felt sorry for it and started hurting too.
I've been having symtoms in my colon right where the carcinoid is in my gut...
A little pain and discomfort at times, and the feeling something is trying to obstruct..
"Don't you just hate it when your poop goes flat." Sorry...that's pretty gross, I know.
I wonder how much Dr Oz would pay for that line...he's so funny.
Am I worried and scared..
Yes!!!
I think beyond here there may be dragons...

Anyhoo..I was in the same place that hubby had the MRI that the surgeon wants to see this
friday...so I asked them if they would put it on disc while I was doing my test. Ugh.
They gave me some paperwork he had to sign, and of course..
He was in the car, so I give the paper work and the alarm back...trekked back out to the
car to get his signature and his drivers license..the wind was growing colder and bolder
out there in the prairie of a driveway like they have these days..sheesh!!!

Back in the building again, staring out the window and the alarm goes off, vibrating on
the table beside me and there's a buzzer to boot..I jumped so hard it made some of the
people around me giggle..while I gave them a raised eyebrow and a sheepish grin.
Never mind, they all have the same fate..
soon enuf they will get to jump to the ringing of the thing, too.

And now the waiting until Thursday to see my oncologist for the results.
Margarets memorial tomorrow fell right in the middle of everything this week.
Two more Doctors to see this week..Thursday for me...Friday for De...
Munchy Manuey...I'm ready for next week.
and that's the way it is...
at our house tonight.
Later,
please say a prayer...
things have got to get better soon!

  5. I agree, when you're bearing the weight of the world on your shoulders and it feels like it'll never get sane again, a good hot showers and release of those tears does truly help. Just be really good to yourself and take some time for just you. Prayers to you and the family for better things to come. Annette T
