~Im Home Again!~

I'm home again...very weak and not in the best of

condition, but I made it through the fight of my life

this past month and a half, I am pleased and proud to say,

I don't think I have been through worse than this other

than when I was fighting that horrible infection in my

left stump for a year that time.. This was a shorter

fight but the outcome is not near as good as it was

with the infection..but I'm still here and the fight is ON! :-)

Here is the scoop.. My heart is blocked in 2 places which

are not able to be fixed..Both arms are severly blocked

and cannot be fixed, which I am grateful I have my power

chair.. I cannot operate my manual but a few feet with out

excruciating pain in my arms.. My abdomen is blocked

and cannot be fixed..Ive already had 2 abdominal bypasses,

no chance for a 3rd.....

My Dr. ,Saltile, sat down in my hospital room, on my 66th

birthday and told me this.. He said I "possibly have a year

ahead". I don't need to tell you what I did.. I cried of course.

I had so been planning another 20 years...Some dreams

don't come true...

I know 2 little boys that are happy to have their mom home

and they have not left my side since I got here...LB was a

bit mad at first , Dutch well, my little man cried he was so

happy and showered me with kisses.. LB came around

later and hes not left me either...

I have to have almost daily help now.. If you know of some

one wants to come and live with me let me know.. I still need

lots of care...

So there you have the update on me.. This is a most interesting

subject "what would you do if given only a year to live..." I have

had so many bouts of tears and sadness its amazing..l I hope

you will continue this journey with me...

I read all the comments and I wont name all of you, but your
special words and dear caring thoughts made me cry and ever
so grateful that I have all of you out there praying for me..With
out your prayers I would not have survived... Thank you...
And Bev, my sweet girl...you are a good daughter to me and
your mom.. I love you dearly......

I lost about 25 pounds, but guess what? I'm still a GORGEOUS
WEEBLE.. God love ya and I shall be back... :-)

Always Lois ****

"God Bless You" is my prayer today,

I'm honored to call you 'friend'.

I pray the Lord will keep you safe,

Until I write again...
