It is very disturbing to hear that medical people may be jumping the gun on declaring death to hasten organ donations. It seems like rules about when death can be declared need to be established that are consistently applied regardless of location. Stories like this will make all of us pause when considering donating our own or a loved one's organs.

123.5. Up again but that is okay. DH keeps reminding me that I need to be at a good weight going into plastics at the start of September and even having a little reserve wouldn?t be a bad thing.I always remember counseling my heart patients that post op is not the time to limit calories. You need those extra calories to heal. Weight loss efforts can come after healing!
Very busy day today and it will continue. Hair cut and color this morning followed by microblading my eyebrows (semi permanent tattooing). Dishes and laundry done and my weekly obligatory bag of garbage to toss so we don?t have to move crap to Florida. I actually had more than one bag this week. Started tossing old videos and pictures! Still a lot of work to do there.
In a little bit I?ll go to the church garden to help harvest. Things are growing so quickly now that we need to do it more than once per week!
DH is golfing so it is a FFY (fend for yourself) dinner night. I?m eating a microwave chicken burrito bowl from Costco, pretty tasty!
You are really being proactive on the junk removal. I was not: One huge effort before putting the house on the market and a second not quite as bad one when moving out.
