Sorry to have not updated – I hesitate in that there is no news, yet. Go to doc on Tuesday – sorry my doc is on holidays but maybe one who doesn’t know me so well will pick up what is the matter – unless my doc has written “Crazy lady” across my chart in big, red letters:) Easy diagnosis then.

I’m not making light of the situation, just actually too worn out to care. What will be will be.

Don’t go worrying – got the studded tires on the car today, life goes on. (Bring on the snow!) Spent the time at S&R’s while they did the car.

Beautiful sunny day here. The game is on and I won’t say who I am cheering (Beverly) but glad to watch it and get my mind off life.

Actually, a lot of very sad medical issues happening in our circle of friends and relatives so, as I always say, it could be worse.

Well, after reading this post, hope you are all cheery – seriously, no worries that can’t be handled.
Take care and love one another – do what you are able to do today, tomorrow could change. Take a trip, visit friends, shop til you drop (been doing that) and just basically hold each other close.

    I think of you often, and wonder how you are faring on this journey. Know that many keep you in their thoughts and prayers. You are not crazy. This is a terrible disease that would be impossible to witness in a loved one without great effect on you.

    I worry because that is what I do. I feel I can read between the lines. But, seriously, I know you are worried about your health and how it might impact on his. I will be praying you are healthy as a horse.
    You are not a crazy lady….

    Jean, if my prayers can help – you’ll be fine. I’ve been praying for you and W for months now. Jan M is right!

    Your advice is right on target. Enjoy today, it is a “present” from God. Yesterday is gone and tomorrow is not here yet…live today for it is a present and not to be wasted. Live it to the fullest and make sweet memories. Praying for you and your visit to the doctor. Fear not tomorrow God is already there.

    Just know “you are not alone”. It may feel like you are but you aren’t. You sound especially tired, pack up on some vitamins, comfort food and a little nap when you can get one…
    ps…hope your team won:)

    I can’t add much to what everyone else said, but I figured I would blabber in your comments section anyway, just to let you know that I am thinking of you and hoping your doc appointment goes well!

    And just who WERE you cheering for? David, Sabrina, Ella, and I went into Washington DC for the day and when we got back to the hotel turned on the game and the score was 17. After the half, Penn State took over!

    Ella has learned how to say “WE are…Penn State.” David is teaching her well.

    Now I’m on pins and needles wondering if the Tampa Bay Rays are going to beat Boston to go to the World Series…hoping. They’re ahead right now.

    I agree with Beverly. You are on edge but after tomorrow’s visit at the doctor’s office, I suspect you will feel much better!

    Keep you chin up, Jean. I’ll be thinking of you. I miss your frequent posts even though I don’t drop in often enough.
