A Little Short Update on Me

Well I went to the ER last night with my leg and they did a CT Scan,blood work and check out the leg and said that I did not have a clot in my right leg where I had the Atria Gram done last week. That was great so Dr Sibley told the Dr to tell me come in and see him today and they gave me a script for some strong pain med. Then today I went to see Dr Sibley and they did an ultra sound on my leg and did not find any clots in my leg said that I just had a hemotoma on my leg. If it was not any better by next week to call him and talk with him they would have to send me to a vascular surgeon to let them check things out. I am going to stay off of my leg for a couple of days and take my pain me when I need it because it is very painful to move are sit. So keep me in your prayers that it will get better and they will not have to do anything further with my leg. May God Bless All

A Little This and That

The Baby Shower was great on Sunday and April got some wonderful gifts. We all had fun with everything when we got it to her house. I have never seen so many cute things from outfits to blanket's. Home made things oh so cute and special you can hold on to those forever so they can use them with there on children when they have some. April has a blanket that Miss Pool made that is Myra mother and I used it with all three of mine Alissa and now Brody will get to use it. Well April called Jo on the Beach and told him to get her the stroller she wanted from Babies R US so I am going to go with him if he does get it for I think he will. This little boy does not stand a chance around here. Well Jo came home yesterday from his trip and he had a great time he said the beach was very nice and pretty to. Today I have to take my Dad to the Dr so I will be busy this afternoon with him he is doing OK but I think he is getting worse all the time. Well Ben called me this morning and told me that Rachel Grandfather passed away this morning at l:30. So keep her and the family in your prayer's as they go through this sad time. I don't when Ben and Rachel are leaving but I sure it will be sometime this week. Well everyone have a great week and May God Bless all see everyone Wednesday night. I am so happy about Mary Mary getting stronger all the time. She has done so great during all of this and May God Bless her more and more each day as she gets better.

A Little More From Yesterday

Well I forgot to tell this yesterday in my blog when I got into the room where they did the test on my Heart. They had a radio on and it was playing one of Carrie Underwood song's and the song was Jesus Take The Wheel I was like wow what a song to be playing when I was having this test done. I was like what a more perfect song to be playing when you are having a test done it's like Jesus is at the wheel when you are going through things that you are not sure about. This was just something I had to add because this is a song that I like very much. The song even brought tears to my eyes. Well just had to add this on since I was not thinking very clear last night and left this off. Today is a better day I fell some better it still hurts to move around. I have to get out Saturday and get somethings for the shower and try to find something to wear also. Well hope to see everyone on Sunday.

So I got two shot's before I left the hospital . I got to come home around two o'clock and boy I sure do feel bad. I just wanted to set up for awhile I choice to write on my blog. My left arm looks like someone beat it up and my right arm has two places on it. The IV and blood work came out of my right arm. The left arm they try ed and the veins just did not want to work. My right leg looks like it has been in a battle and the leg lost. But the thigh is where they stuck me in order to do the test on my heart. Well I am at home and still just moving slowly,I have to stay home for two days. I can not lift any thing over ten Pound's. Well I will be at the baby shower on Sunday and I am so happy about that. I can not wait until I see that little baby it sure will be nice. April went to the Dr and he said about six more weeks. So anytime after the first of November we will be looking for the baby to come or Mr. Brody Jackson. We are watching between Survivor and the Football game. Well take care and I will see you all Sunday. May God Bless and Take Care.

Things Going On

Well Friday night I had Emily to come over for the weekend and that was great I always enjoy her coming to the house. Then on Saturday I meet April at Target in Fulton dale and got Alissa then I took them shopping for a little while. Not long because I got tired of walking and we left and came home. Then when I got home we cooked supper Kent and I did because we had Taco's the most simple thing I could think of. After that Kent went to clean the Bldg. then I cleaned up and started to work on lunch for Sunday. Then on Sunday morning it come time to get Alissa and Emily up Joseph took the Trumpet up stairs and got the girl's up. Then when we got finished eating at church Brianna came over to the house with Emily and they kept me laughing all day long. Well on Monday I had Dr apt's with my parent's and brother so that made me tired and just not feeling well when I got home. We thought my Mom's car had caught on fire so Mom said call the fire dept so I did and the guy that fixed Mom's air in her car had got some on the motor of the car and it started smoking but it look like the care was on fire. So when Kent got home he had to go and check on her car for her so she could do some things today so I would not have to get back out again today. Because I will be gone most the day on Wed. I have a Dr's apt and then an MRI,X-ray on my neck so Wed is going to be busy for me. Then on Thursday I will have an Artier Gram done on my Heart. So keep me in your prayer's Thursday that things will go well. May God Bless All. Oh by the way Denise is my Brother's OPT and she told my Mom today that she got a new grandson last night and she would be going to see him in T'Town this weekend. She told Mom that gave her ten grand kids five girl's and five boy's. Well see everyone tonight at church for another good lesson from Kerry.

What is Going on With Me

Well I went back to see Dr. Johnson about my legs again and he told me I had peripheral neuropathy in my legs and boy does it hurt. Yesterday I could not hardly walk or drive over to the Dr's Office as I was waiting on the ride up to his office well my legs got weak on me. So when I got back to see him he sent me to have a block done in my legs. I was hurting so bad they gave me something to make me sleep also something for pain. When they were done I still was in alto of pain so they gave me three shot's of Demerol and before I left they gave me two darvecet. I am one of those that just can not take a lot pain and takes a lot to make the pain go away. When we got home it was about five o'clock I think. I just know I did not care what was going on around the house last night. I keep on having shortness of breath and dizziness,light headed, so they are going to do an Artial Gram next Thursday just to make sure that I have nothing else going on with my heart. I have to get myself back together because I have a lot to look forward too in the next month are so. I also have to get an MRI,X-ray on my neck on the 22nd of this month because it is giving me trouble. So next week I have a busy week not with just myself but my brother has to have lab work Dad has a Dr's apt so it just does not stop sometimes. Well take care and May God Bless All.

The Baby's Name

Well this is as close as you will get to the name BJC which is not the name all the way. But if you know baby names at all this will be very easy for you to guess. I have to make it all little fun for me don't won't to make it to easy for you. We went to a place today which was fun called Painted by You over by T'RUS. I went with April and some of the ladies that she goes to church with and then we went to eat. While we were eating one of the girl's spoke up and said she was having another baby she has one I think 2 1/2, the other one is not eighteen mos. old yet she is due in May. While we were eating April told them she was going to have another one this was not going to be her last. I did not get to watch the Alabama game but I do know they won and hurt themselves with pen tiles. Then when I finally get home in time to see the Auburn Tiger's fighting to win and I do know that Vandy is going to beat those Tiger's fourteen to thirteen. I know Bama did not play that well but at least we did win. But I have to say there has to be a winner and a looser. Well see everyone tommorrow. May Bod Bless.

A Little From The Garrison House

Well things have been better around here the past couple of day's. Monday and Tuesday went well around here I went to see my Dad on Tuesday and I walk in the room Dad said where have you been. I told him I have not been feeling well and in the hospital then came out and had to have some test done. Then he told me that right I remember now that what's someone one told me. The next question was where is your Mom and brother why did they not come with you? I told him that Dwight can not walk yet and Mom is still recovering from staying with him while he was in the hospital. We got on another subject I told him about the kid's and how they were doing. I told him that April was getting bigger and that baby was so sweet on the four D he just smiled when I said something about the baby. Then he got quite and did not talk anymore so I said I am going to go I got somethings to do. He told me to tell Mom and Dwight that he loved them. I said I will then he said I love you and take care. Well on Wed. Mom ask me to come and help wash Dwight hair so I went up to the house to be an assistant in the washing. When we got through eating supper me and Mom got to work on his hair. This turned out to be very funny he started getting sick and Mom said go ahead I just take you to the hospital and let the Dr's take care of you when I get finished. Well when she finished he was OK mad but done with Mom for the rest of the night. On Thursday he had to go to the Dr and Kent came and help us get him in the van to go to the Dr. While we were riding he told me that he was going to tell the Dr on Mom for washing his hair that was so funny. I talk with April today and she is doing fine her shower is 10-26 at 2:00 until 4:00 in the afternoon. She has seven and half weeks to go she says but I think he will be here before Dec. 2ND. Alissa is doing good she is taking violin lessons at school and she is enjoying this very much. Alissa is a AB student in school and she loves her teacher this year. Well my other kid's are doing great as far as I know. I talk with my sister today she still has to do chemo once month for six more months, but other then that she is doing OK. Joe went to eat with Daniel for lunch today that saves me having to listen to him what are we going to do for lunch.
