She certainly has issues! Wonder why she was in jail.

I did extremely well on Percocet after my surgery. My boss asked if I could stay on it😏

Anita, how long will she be in that cast?

I finished listening to The Last Thing He Told Me by Laura Dave, and loved it! I plan to watch the series on Apple TV+.

Thank you, Lynn. I appreciate you sharing that as I’m getting the same from his care team. My hubby is finally on the road to being healthy again.

I'm glad to hear your hubby is getting back on track. Doctors can clear up the fluid build up quickly. Getting to the root cause of the problem, isn't always straight forward. It is great..."

Thank you, Sharon. You’re right, resolving the fluid wasn’t tough but getting to the root cause is trickier. But, they are definitely on the right paths to getting there. He’s got a great care team and his brother is still part of it. He’s happy so I’m happy.

Thank you, Lauren! I appreciate the offer and may take you up on that.

Thank you, Charlene. I’m getting sleep I haven’t experienced in a long time.

I hope he is better really so..."

Phrynne, it’s his primary care physician who is the problem. His cardiologist is assigning him a new one associated with his practice. I’ve had concerns for a long, long time. My hubby is a scientist and arrogantly self diagnosed and kept critical info from his brother, who may have just saved his life by intervening. Men can just be stubborn.

Thank you!

Thanks, Robin. He’s got a new, superb care team who definitely know what they’re doing. He’s so much better already and waiting for the right solution.

We had our own medical problem yesterday. My oldest daughter, her family and friends were skiing at Mammoth..."

Thanks, Anita.

I finished listening to:

Undercover Bromance by Lyssa Kay Adams, Bromance Book Club #2, and was surprised that I enjoyed these two characters!

Thank you, both💜

Some of you may be aware of my recent health issues, along with my husband. Mine seemed to be related to the stress of worrying about his health over the last few months. He’s had a dramatic weight loss, developed shortening of breath that he called a residual cough from a cold (I never noticed him with one) and radiant abdominal pain. His breathing at night was extremely labored, keeping me awake more from the worry. Finally, I couldn’t take it any more and reached out to his brother who’s an oncologist. He immediately took over his care team, scheduling tests and ex-rays. Hubby had fluid in his lungs so he scheduled an appointment with a cardiologist for this morning. However, early Saturday morning, my husband’s breathing became so labored I took him into emergency. We barely made it as his lungs were drowning him in fluid. The staff told me he just made it. He didn’t have a heart attack but does have congestive heart failure. He’s doing much better and the prognosis is really good. He’s undergoing a series of test to determine the cause of the heart muscle failure.

I tell you all of this because I’m seriously behind in the book discussions but now that things are back on track in my life, I should be able to keep pace. I haven’t been getting much sleep for at least two months and now am able to relax.

Thanks for the well wishes but thought you deserved to know why I’ve been so negligent.
