Heart Break. Update.

 My husband's cardiologist called last week stating that there had been a cancellation in their surgery schedule. Due to this opening, the doctor moved my husband's surgery up to this week. So, for the next few days I'll be busy tending to my dear husband and I don't think I'll be able to post as much as I have been. Hopefully, I'll be back in a few days and super hopefully, all will have gone well with my husband's surgery.

If you want to say a prayer for him, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

It's not easy being retired with one spouse suffering from cardiac problems and the other spouse suffering from the pangs of cancer. Oh well. Such is life for this older, retired couple.

Wish us well and I'll be back as soon as I can.

UPDATE: 5/7/2025. We are back. We had to go out of town to have Nick's heart surgery done. None of our local hospitals would do the procedure. So, we had to go to an experimental hospital not only to have the procedure done BUT to have Medicare cover most of the costs. The procedure went well. Nick is up and walking around. But he can't lift anything and he will need at least 2 weeks of rest to fully recover. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all who sent good wishes and good prayers. They worked! As soon as we get more settled, I'll write a more specific blog post. The hospital was magnificent. State-of-the-art! I never saw anything like it (unless it was in a sci-fi movie!) The property was massive. Just walking back and forth to the cafe' I clocked 1.5 miles! The restaurant food was delicious. They even grew their own salad greens!!

all the fresh salad you can eat! grown right there. from hospital to table!
