My 3 month anniversary

May 19, 2008

Yesterday the 18th was my 3 month anniversary.
i couldnt  weigh the batteries are dead in the scales..When i weighed on the 14th i was down 95 pounds since surgery...
I still have hard time walking straight i am not very graceful..
Well my hubby will be home sat he has been gone for 18 days now.
He cannot be deployed overseas due to his back injury so he will be stateside  30 minutes from home...
My parents are in there new place and im so happy for that now maybe they can relax..
I do worry bout them both my mom is slipping fast(i dont ever wonna lose my mind).its so sad to watch she is going to take no more chemo she says she is tired...my dad goes along with whatever she says or does..
I only pray my dh loves me half as much as my mom loves my dad.
MY oldest son turns 25 on june 2nd and the same day my middle son grads from 8th grade..
my oldest has my low self esteem he thinks no good girl will want him...He is a good lookin man who is very laid back and shy..he isnt very social
nowthat he doesnt get from me.lol
Well i did it i slipped out of my chair and hit the floor with my butt and head..
my tailbone is so sore i can hardly set,,geuss some of the padding is gone..ouch..lol

Apr 27, 2008

Sorry i havent posted lately but after 24yrs in the same place my parents are moving(not by choice).
I dont know if i told you but my mom had cancer for 4 yrs and her cancer was in remission well she is having mental issues and i feel her cancer has went to brain but she wont let them check it out so she acts like a little girl and has caused all kinds of trouble...
She says she is fine but she carries conversations on with people who arent there.
I told my dh i dont ever wonna lose my mind it is so sad to watch her,it tears my hurt out.
My hubby starts his training to be deployed this weekend so we went to pac and she told me off big time and sent me home.lol
so today im gonna put on my big girl undies and go be the mom .....
I new i would have to tae care of my parents but they are 66 and 65 so i thought i had a few yrs yet..i have 1 bro who has his own issues.
on the good side i turned 45 yesterday and im feeling great still walk slow but im walkin and i am so excited how everyday gets better.its the best decision i ever made the surgery has given me my life back.
I thank Dr.Sonnastine for everything he is the greatest he has given me back my life.
also i give thanks to God for given me this 2nd chance to be all i can be..
well better go and pay the electric billbefore im sittin in the dark..lol

Im sorry i havent posted for awhile.
I had my surgery on 2/18/08
I had a wonderful surgeon who took excellent care of me.On the 18 i had a complication but not from the surgery my blood pressure was so low and kept dropping i was told it was the pain medication so it was taken away and i was given blood transfusions but everything got better and i came home in 6 days.
was doing what i was told but on wed i had a spell i could not breathe i was scared to death ..i was taken by ambulance to the hosp and was admitted to icu where they say i had an embolism and a silent heart attack so i was in the hosp for another 12 days.
I forgot to mention the dr had a cava filter put in before the surgery so they say it saved my life...
Im now on cumadin and have my blood checked weekly..
Ive lost according to our scales since 2/18 74.5 pds.
No more insulin and i fill better im so happy i had the surgery
everday is anew beginning and im so thankful .
