As soon as my muse and gas like brain return to normal I'll try and set a normal pace for this blog. With her sick and in pain our lives have flipped to the erratic side of life.
As an example yesterday I sat in a local emergency room from zero five hundred until thirteen hundred....with a batch of drunks, druggies, loonies, and democritters.
She's fine. Scheduled for procedures in early June. Hopefully by then the white shirts will have a diagnosis.
You will now understand my thought process, bad in the best of times, is now fleeting with occasional puffs of vapor.
Please know I have read and do appreciate all of your kind and thoughtful comments and prayers. I have gone days when this computer (or any computer) hasn't crossed my mind. Books, newspapers, and the Kindle have been my chosen escape. I will make every effort, soon I hope, to answer all comments.
Don't worry. With proper medication my Sweet Wife is functional, and at times, very happy. She continually tells me to have faith. She's stays quite busy with her flower beds. I did indeed sneak a few herbs into the mix. She welds the water can with aplomb.
In the meantime I've decided to study the Daily Racing Form and take a ride on the ponies....busy mind and all that...
Again, thank you.
Stephen
Hope she continues to maintain this level or better of health. Praying for the 2 of you.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kristine.
DeleteVery OK to focus on what is important, and what is needed.
ReplyDeleteShe's currently number one. All else is at a near stand-still. Thank you, my friend.
DeleteYou have your priorities straight, my friend. We are with you both in thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sweet Lady.
DeleteHang in there buddy.
ReplyDeleteThanks, my friend. I hope all is well with you and yours.
DeleteI hope she get's better soon.
ReplyDeleteSo do I...she, hurts.
DeleteJust know that all of us are wishing Sweet Wife will be well soon. Please take care of her and take care of yourself, too. We'll always be here. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sweetheart.
DeleteWishing you and your sweet wife all the best. Caregiving is hard, emotional work. Democritters.....I love it.
ReplyDeleteThank you, my lovely friend. The care giving is indeed hard but it's the emotional side that caves me into a black hole of worry. The not knowing stuff sucks.
DeleteAll my good wishes for you and sweet wife. We'll be here waiting patiently. Be gentle with yourself, Stephen.
ReplyDeleteI'll be fine...I think. Thank you, my sweet friend.
DeleteWhat they've all said. Prayers for SW - and you - in progress.
ReplyDeleteWe chat of you, often. You're a fine man, my friend. Thank you, very much.
DeleteStephen, I didn't know your wife was sick. I'm sure sorry to hear it. If there is anything I can do to help you know you just have to tell me.
ReplyDeleteI understand, Harry...and thank you very much. Six weeks now and still we're unsure of her real problem. Next test is scheduled for the fourth of June. Take care.
DeleteStay strong my friend, hope the wife gets better quick.
ReplyDeleteI will not accept failure...period. How's the farm?
DeleteStephen my friend. Prayers to you and sweet wife. And, please, take of yourself also.
ReplyDeleteI will, Bubba. Thanks to you and your fine wife. God bless.
DeletePrayers and good thoughts.
ReplyDeleteThanks, my friend. Since I haven't had a chance (nor the inclination) to read the blogs, are you still in Texas? Anyway, have a great weekend.
DeletePrayers for Sweet Wife, Stephen.
ReplyDeleteThank you, my friend. We do appreciate your kind concern. Take care.
DeleteReal life comes first. Thoughts and prayers continue.
ReplyDeleteThank you, my friend. Be careful out there.
DeletePrayers and well wishes for you and Sweet Wife, Stephen. Take care and we'll be here for you.
ReplyDeletehobo
Thank you, very much, my good friend. Hope all is well with you.
DeleteI am sending good thoughts her way.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Hope all is well.
DeleteSo sorry to hear about SW. Prayers for you both.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sweetone. And to you...
DeletePrayers and thoughts are with you
ReplyDeleteThank you, my friend. We do appreciate you kind thought and prayers.
DeleteStephen, Prayers that she will be well soon. Best wishes,
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sweet Lady....I hope she improves very soon too. It's been a very long week...
DeleteMust be my intuition kicking in ....I was out hanging laundry and thought I need to head on over and see how Stephen and his wife are doing. And here ya are with your thoughts. I do hope the docs find out what the problem is soon. To watch someone while in pain is not an easy task. She is right on the faith front....difficult for us humans most of the time but necessary when things are out of our control! Our prayers for you both and best wishes....
ReplyDeleteShe has faith to spare...then I watch her turn white with the pain and I lose what little I have in reserve. We should have (fingers crossed) an answer about June fourth. Thank you very much....
