I am THANKFUL (as you know) that Joe got through the catheterization and has recovered from it just fine. We are both disappointed that the TAVR procedure wasn't done, but we are also THANKFUL that his doctor is taking time and wants us to do a surgical consult to determine what will be best for Joe. That also tells us that his shrinking valve isn't at an emergency level or they would have gone ahead and scheduled him. Of course, that doesn't help his shortness of breath or his coughing. He is still frustrated but we are working on the new plan.
I am THANKFUL for all the text messages and phone calls and friends stopping by to see Joe - and the offers of prayer and good thoughts.
I am THANKFUL to have the April Challenge to flesh out this post! You can visit Kwizgiver HERE to join in the April Challenge fun.
April 5th ... A place you would live but have never visited.
I really don't want to live anyplace other than right here in Lakeland, Florida. I will say that moving to another city has never been a problem. I have lived in Washington Court House, Ohio; Millersport, Ohio; Columbus, Ohio; Huron, Ohio; Germantown, Maryland; Fairfax, Virginia; Alexandria, Virginia; and Lakeland, Florida. Moving to a new place has always been a bit of an adventure. I no longer want to live in a big city or another country or anyplace where it snows. So I guess I have answered this more with where I wouldn't go...
Thanks for popping in! Today is our son, Joey's birthday. Peace & hugs.
I too am thankful there wasnt an emergency situation and now plans can be made for the next step for Joe. I know you both are happy to be home. Keep us posted when you know what the surgical consult has to say. I have never had a problem moving either Terri.....it is what it is and I make the best of it. Hope your Thursday is a good day. xoxox
ReplyDeletePraying for Joe as well as for you and your family. Trust in the Lord.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Joey.
God bless.
Keep us posted on Joe.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Joey!
Have a great day!
It's stressful when health care plans are being decided, but hoping for good doctors and the best plan to get your husband feeling good again.
ReplyDeleteObviously it is "just" the valve causing the problem because they would have done a full pulmonary work-up before his test. That is what I experienced with the pneumonia. But the heart not working 100% produces the same symptoms. It is no fun to have your health compromised for sure!
ReplyDeleteI hope everything works out this week and that Joe finds some answers. I can't think of any other place I would want to live either. I would like to spend more time in the 'wild west'! heehee! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteMissing Florida right now, but won't be in a couple of months! I was a bit too far South ,thinking about it now...sub-tropical.
ReplyDeleteSo glad that things are progressing in the right way. Prayers always for a great outcome.
If you want someone to show you around Lakeland, I make a pretty good tour guide and we explored 55+ communities before settling on Mas Verde. Open offer!!

ReplyDeleteI am with you in this. I used to want to go everywhere...and did a bit, but now I want to stay home!
Glad to hear things are working out with the doctors. Praying for healing!
Thanking God along with you Terrie. I have Joe on my prayer list!! And like you, I hope I am settled here in Decatur as I like where I live and the good friends and neighbors I have here.
ReplyDeleteI'm so thankful with you that Joe is doing well!!!!
ReplyDeleteContinued prayers for Joe. I love to visit other places, but my home is right here in a little Texas town. I think I'll stay here!!
ReplyDeleteStopped and prayed for your husband and his doctors to know the right way to go.
ReplyDeleteI pray for both of you. It is good news that he isn't at an emergency level. Keep us posted. hugs, lj
ReplyDeleteSo glad everything went well with Joe! I will be continuing to pray.
ReplyDeleteI answered the challenge question pretty much the same way.
Happy Birthday, Joey!!!
ReplyDeleteLoved your response to Challenge #5, Terri. The grass sure doesn't grow any greener on the other side of that proverbial fence, does it? I hope before too long I'll feel the same way.
Really a beautiful blog.It is very astonishing and marvelous design.
