My Dr.'s Sec. Called with My Test Report

Well she called and said that the test came back good,Dr. Sibley is going to see me again on 10-13 at 9:00 in the morning. I a happy with all of the out come of the test. But what I don't understand is why did the Dr. at the other hospital told me what he did about my heart. But I know that you don't ask why things happen you just take all the good news's you can get and go on about your life. I just don't won't what happened to me about 3 week's ago to happen again. I just have to much to look forward to their is a new grand baby coming plus my very pretty grand daughter that I already have. I love my family so much and I want to be here for them so it just scares me to think that it could happen again. So I have to think about what I am doing and take very good care of myself so I can do all the things that I want to in the future. We have a new truck and we are going to buy use a Travel Trailer and then we are going to start traveling when ever we can. My Mom has her car fixed now and she can drive herself anywhere her and my brother want to go once he gets his straight back. They are working on that now with a PT coming to the house so this is good for my brother. Well just wanted to let everyone know just pass it all around. May God Bless All!

Today and My Test

Today I got up at 5:30 to be at the hospital for my Thilluim Test at 7:00 this was early for me because I don't get up until around nine thirty so this was early for me. Well when I got to where they did the test I had to reg. first the they started an IV so they could put some medicine in when they took a picture of my heart. Then the other was put in when I ran on treadmill and boy was the ruff. Kent went up and stated to work but he left his number in case they needed him. Well I started getting a headache because I had nothing to eat and I could not get anything for my head. I was so tired after all the work and the X-Ray on my heart with the stuff that makes your heart glow. So after all the test work was done I did not find out anything so we left and went to eat thinking that might help me some. It did not help my head got to hurting worse we came home to see if it would stop. It just kept on hurting so we ended back over at then hospital for me to get a shot for my head. I am still very tired and I can not wait until Monday to find out what is going on with me. Kent thinks I will have to have a stint put in because something is making me get out of breath and tired all the time and I just don't feel like doing anything at all. Well everyone take care and keep me in your prayer's that everything is all right for me.

Today was A Happy Day

I went with April to the Dr. again they did a four-D CD and picture's on the baby. We got to see the little guy before he was born. They measured April and said she was 34 week's I better not tell you how much she weighs because she Read's my blog. Well this was the sweetest thing I have ever seen with this 4-D picture you could tell every little detail about him. Yes this is a little boy after today there is no doubt in our minds this is a boy. He is so cute we saw his hands all the time because he kept them in front of his face just about all the time. Well we kept looking at him and he gave us a smile twice and that is on the picture's and the CD. The smile was just to sweet it was like he heard my voice oh did I say my voice I meant April's voice. At one time he had his feet and hand's in face he so much wanted that girl to leave him alone. Alissa loved seeing it all until it came to where he was showing his bottom off and she said that is gross. So we for sure know it is a little boy. Well I for once had to pass along some Happy News instead of the same old thing all the time. It is nice to talk about Happy News when you are going to be a grand parent and maybe it will be before December. Well Everyone Take Care and May God Bless

Up Date Around Here\ A BIG ROLL TIDE ALSO!

Well my brother went back in the hospital on Saturday because he had another blockage but he is getting to come home again today. Yesterday I stayed with my brother while my Mom came home for awhile. Then my oldest sister showed up and she did not say one word to me while she was in the room. She act like I was not in the room she just talk with Dwight and that was it,she did not ask me any question about what the Dr's had said. But she was only in the room for and hour thank goodness for that. Who knows what her problem is with me as guess it is because I am with Mom on whatever she wants to do. But that is OK I don't care what the other three think this is me and it is how I am going to be for the rest of my life. So this is good for my brother and they are going to send a Physical Therapist out for my brother so that they can help him build back up his strength to walk again. Because he is so weak after laying in the bed for so long he has little are no strentght. When Joseph and I left the hospital yesterday we went to church with April and them we enjoyed that very much. Kent then showed up and that made Alissa even more happier. April,Joe started was talking to me and telling me Mom you need to take care of yourself and I know that. But sometimes you just don't know how things are going until something happens and then it scares you half to death. I would have never thought of anything like what happen to me would have happened when it did. You just never know what can happen to you when you have alto going on in your life. I go to the Dr on Thursday to see what did happen to me the Dr is getting all my test that I had done in the hospital. I trust Dr. Sibley more then I do the Dr's I seen at the other hospital. Well I have alto to look forward to I am getting a new grandson in not to many more month's. Alissa is growing up so fast I don't know what to do with her but I think she will be a big help with her baby brother. Kent has been my rock for me with everything that I have had going on. I love this man so much he is very understanding and very helpful and supporting husband. Well everyone keep me in your prayer's that everything will be all right with me. May God Bless All!

Things Around My House

Well my brother is still in the hospital we thought he was coming today. But they did some more blood work so he has not got to come home yet. Then on Friday I went to PT and after that I started feeling bad. Joe and I stop by to get us something to eat and I thought I was going to pass out. Then when I got home I took my blood pressure and it was high the I started getting weak. Joe called his buddies at the fire station and they came to the house and check me out blood pressure and sugar. Blood pressure was still high and my sugar was low. Then I started sluring my speech and I new that was not good. They had to pick me up and put me on the bed to carring me out of the house to the ambulance. We had to go over to Montclair because Princeton was very busy. So when I got over to the hospital they did an MRI,Cat Scan and Blood Work. After all the test the Dr. in the ER said I had a Mini Stroke. So they put me in the hospital to watch me for a couple of days and did some more test work. About 12:00 in the night they came and go me for another Cat Scan with the stuff in it the makes you glow like a light blub also they did a MRI on me so I did not get to go to sleep until late and then it took me forever to go to sleep. I did not sleep good at all because they kept leaving my door open and the man across the hall called out for the nurse about the time I would get to sleep. I kept a headache until Sunday and it finally went away thank goodness. I had blood work all night long on Friday night even into Saturday morning. Then on Monday they did a test on my heart where they had to put me to sleep to look at my heart and my arties. I found out before I left that I had some blockage in left artire,and my heart was not pumping like it was suppose to. So next week I am going to see Dr Sibley with these problems. Get another opinnion it never hurts to get more advice from someone else that you know real well. Well keep me in your prayers while I am going through all of this to see what it going on with me. I have to admit I was scared about everything that was going with me. Well the one thing that did Cheer Me Up Some was That Alabama Won Their Gama. But I watch Auburn play and I felt like I was watching a Base Ball game instead a Football game. Well May God Bless All and Have a Blessed Day.

How Things Are Going

Well I started out over the weekend Saturday I spent the day with my brother so my Mom could come home and do somethings and take care of her bills. Also so she could just get away from the hospital for a while. We got her car fixed so she now has a way to get around. When she ask anyone else they tell her this is Phyllis job. Same way with taking care of her pet's and anything else that needs to be done for her. So being me I just do it and think nothing of it but one day things will come back and haunt them. So I stayed at the hospital until 6:oo on Saturday and made it home to see a great game on TV that watch Alabama win their first game and that was great. We thought Dwight was coming home today but he got sick again so he will be in the hospital a little while longer. On Monday we work out in the yard and Kent grilled some ribs on the grill. April,Jason,Alissa,Miles came over and ate with us and Joe was even off from work we had a great meal and a great time. Then we saw the old Tennessee get beat by UCLA and boy was I happy to see them get beat. Today I heard that Alabama is number number seventeen which is better then were we started off at. Joe went to school last night and they were using it has a shelter for the Hurrican people and he had to come back because they were not having class. I went to the nursing home today to see Dad and he was in there church service so I did not talk with him today because he does not come out of his room much. I have to take care of his clothes because just like everything else no one else will help with that either. Well Dwight has a birthday coming up on the 7th he will be 50 years old. Kent has a birthday on the eight and he will be 55 years old then on the 20th Dad has a birthday and he will be 78 years old. April and Jason anniversary is on the 14th of this month. Mom and Dad's 60th Anniversary was on Monday that is hard to believe that they have been married for 60 years.
