First of all a big thank you to those of you who follow my blog. You encourage me and your continued prayers lift me up.
My appointment with Dr. M went really well. He was very impressed with my labs and overall condition. I was beginning to experience some neuropothy in my feet due to the high levels of steroids he had me on. We are tapering that and he suggested Vitamin B complex. One or the other is working because my feet are fine now. Truthfully I was a little worried as to where the pain/discomfort was going to. My breathing is normal now, I can walk and talk even going uphill!
We had quite a discussion regarding my activities for this winter. He in no uncertain terms was not in favor of me officiating the coming season. He said he sees me as a long term survivor but I must stay healthy and let my lungs completely heal. After 3 hospitalizations for pneumonia I am inclined to take his advice. It's a hard one to accept but I know that for my family's sake and mine it is the right choice for now. Come late November I will be housebound. Den and I have decided to go to Florida the end of Jan. for 2 weeks. That will be a welcome break from what promises to be another harsh winter. I am so thankful for my home and for the opportunity to break away for a bit of time.
Now as a treat (I think) I am going to give you some pictures of our family. I feel as though
I give you medical reports only. Please know that we have had some fun as a family and all of the grandkids bring us great joy. Enjoy!
