Getting Back My Normal

October 23, 2017

It’s hard to struggle with your daily routine. A few years back everyday was a struggle as I tried to get through my day.  Making it to my goal was refreshing and life was good. Over the past couple of years a few bumps skin removal surgeries, my bestie with breast cancer and recently my trip to the ER. As of today there is still no answer to my issues. We have been trying a few things to figure it out and might have found an answer but will see yet another specialist.  Everything is pointing to an  ear issue that is causing some kind of nerve issue. I’m just ready for the dizziness, head aches and unbalanced walk to be gone.

As for the rest of my normal coming back that involves getting my bestie back on her feet and back to her normal.  Today she started that process as her first reconstruction surgery happened.  She was a trooper and stage one of three is underway.  It was a long, long day with a 9 hour surgery and 3 hours of recovery.  When they finally brought her to the room where she will stay for a few days she was smiling.  That’s all I needed to see and she even gave me a hard time.  So I gave it right back to her.   I left the hospital knowing that we are both getting back on track. I spent the day with Tim, Karen’s hubby. We were both nervous but found away to entertain each other. Around 4 it was clear we both just needed to see her. It was 9:05 tonight before that happened. Dr A came out after the surgery to let us know it all went well. What a relief to hear those words. I’m so glad I went he needed me as much as I needed him. 

Today was long and tomorrow seems to be lining up to be even longer.  I’m sorry this blog is so short and really not full of anything but words from a very tired blogger.  Please say a prayer for Karen and know I’ll have some special projects to share later.
