Katie's Visit

Katie and her children playing with Amanda's birds. We had a great visit with her family and hope they will come back soon!

Wedding Ring

It finally came off tonight. I've been trying to get it off for months and the Edema is so bad that tonight I had to go to the ER and get it cut off. My finger feels much better, but my once beautiful ring is quite a mess. O well, it's just a bit of gold. And like the old country song says, "Only LOVE can make a golden wedding ring". Thank God the LOVE part is still intact.

You're Fired

Today I fired my Pulmonologist. I switched to a new one, a doctor that is more available to attend to patient care. She was my doctor while I was hospitalized in May for Pneumonia and I really liked her. So even though my joints, edema, breathing, and everything else really stinks today, I feel a little better to have taken care of this. So There.
