WOW….
WOW I have so many faves to catch up on. I didn’t do much reading last night as I wasn’t feeling well.
Anyways the Dr.’s office FINALLY called me back today. I had called them a week ago and they gave me this," well we are waiting on your labs etc." That was a week PAST when I had the labs done, I always have them within 2 days at the most. Today it has been 15 days ughhh. So I waited and Kerry and I decided well we would go ahead and make plans as I had waited so long. So YAY after 4 years we are finally doing something! We are going to Colorado September 22nd-29th! We have to be back the 29th early because he has a friend he went to college with getting married that evening. I had told him 2 weeks ago that going to Starbucks and Lowe’s or Home Depot did NOT constitute a relationship to me and we needed to do something!
******TMI********
I told him after 4 years that this WEEKEND thing was going to have to move one way or the other because why should he BUY the cow if he was getting the milk for free. This being his weekend partner/ babe needed to stop.
******End TMI*****
I also said that I could stay home on the weekends and do some things I wanted to do. If I wanted to go somewhere I would go and he could stay home. Basically like it was when I went to California a couple years back to see my daughter. He was suppose to go and I waited and waited on him to get his act together which he NEVER did so I bought my ticket and left him at home. I was so frustrated with him.
So anyways we are going. My Dr. appointment or appointment for my tests At The Heart Institute are Oct.4th at 2:30. I had to take 2 nitro last night before the pressure/pain would subside in my chest. I have been keeping a daily log/diary for the Doc as he asked me to. Describing the pain when, where and what I was doing at the time. How long pain lasted and how many nitro I had to take…blah blah blah.
So anyways I am excited about finally going somewhere and when I told the Dr.’s office when she called and told me my appointment was the 24th at 2:30 , I stated I was going to be out of town that whole week. She said, "well you will need to call and reschedule the procedure." I asked her what they were doing because it was left up in the air as to whether they were doing another heart cath or medicine induced stress test as I can’t walk the treadmill thing. She gave me the number and I CALLED to re-schedule and find out what they were doing and WHERE they were doing it at. Dr. H. has so many new people in his office now it frustrates me and this girl today did NOT know what she was doing. So it is scheduled for when I come back, hopefully I won’t have to many chest pains while there and things will be calmer so I can relax. Man this was rambling all over the place…..
Ohhhhh and my brother came by this morning for me to do some stuff on his computer at 5:30 a.m. because he was on his way at 7 to get his stitches out and leave town again for a meeting at 1 today. His face looked real good. I was so pleased with the procedure and YAY no cancer cells there now. His wife the one that is SUPPOSE to have the Stem Cell Research stuff has lost weight now below 85 lbs. The person at the institute doing the research stated to her (like everyone else has) that if she did not weigh 90 lbs on Thursday she was out. She told her to eat A LOT of salt, milkshakes, and several other things and wear her boots and a heavy sweater on Thursday. Now how can she tell her to do all this extra clothes etc. if it is so dangerous with her weight? She does have to sign a waiver though as it is IF she gets to participate because she is so thin. I told Mom Sunday when she came for me to give her her shot that if she was alive at Christmas the way she was going would surprise me. Her upper arms and thighs are about as big as my wrists. She complained about how bad the shots hurt anymore I stated it was because she had no fat/muscle NOTHING anymore just bone and skin and it would hurt. She has my brother so fooled he stated AGAIN today that "she is eating". Well if she is it doesn’t look it or she is getting rid of it. If it was my older brother I could sit him down and talk to him about it. Since it is my hot headed younger brother that flies off the handle and doesn’t listen she will continue to lie to him. I have been at the other end of his fists way to many times for me to say anything at this point other than to her. She cries and goes on when I talk to her and tells Ray so I am surprised he hasn’t hit me again yet! On to other news….
My Uncle that has the bone cancer got his CAT scan results today and they are almost positive that it has metastasized into his lymph nodes and that is what the knot is on his neck under his ear. They put his port in a week ago to start his chemo again but didn’t because of this new stuff. We will meet him and his wife at the ENT in the morning and sit with her.
Hugs to you all and I will try to get caught up but I am tired and am going to bed.
Man this was rambling all over the place…..
I’m glad you’re going somewhere nice with Kerry.
