I have felt very nostalgic today.  I have been thinking of times gone by.  Elvis Presley is my most favorite singer.  I can remember my mom playing his songs all the time throughout the years.  Please take the time to really listen and look at the fantastic world we live in!

Heart Momitor Again & Get Better Soon Mom!!

I had an appointment with my cardiologist today.  He prescribed me to wear a heart monitor again.  The last time it showed I was having problems and I am feeling the same way again. 
My Mom is in the hospital.  She has pneumonia, water in her lungs, and Influenza Type B.  She got the flu vaccine but there is a different strain going around.  She is so sick!!  She was so worried she will be in the hospital for Christmas and we are all telling her not to worry about it to just get better soon!!  If she is still in there, we are making Christmas dinner and taking it to her.  I love her so very much!! 
I hope all of you are having a very blessed day!!

RIP Johnny!!

My mom's cousin, Johnny, passed away yesterday.  He was a fabulous person who always saw the good in people and always smiled and was light hearted.  He was just like his father.  He will be missed a lot by many people.  We didn't get to see him often because he lived in a different state but whenever we did, it was like we were never separated.  RIP Johnny!!!  You will be in our hearts forever!!

Hospital Again

I had to go to the emergency room again.  I went to Urgent Care first and they told me to go there since I fell in their parking lot.  The emergency room doctor was very nice.  He said I have a cervical sprain and a bad urinary tract infection (UTI).  He gave me some pain medication and muscle relaxers for my neck, shoulder, and back pain  and he gave me an antibiotic and 200mg Phenazopyridine for the UTI.  I have never had Phenazopyridine before.  It is a dye that coats the urinary tract and it is very effective!!  The doctor told me it would make my urine orange and it does.  lol  The staff at the hospital couldn't believe how I was smiling.  I told them no matter how much pain I am in, I try to smile!  They smiled back and told me I am a very positive and inspirational person and I have the best smile they have ever seen!  I can't think of a better compliment!
After the hospital, I had my son take me to the grocery store for some cranberry-grape juice.  He was so sweet and went in for me.  While he was in there, I saw 2 guys headed towards the store.  This kitten ran up to them.  1 of them picked her up.  A few minutes later, they put her down and went into the store.  She followed them in!  Lol  The store doors couldn't close fast enough and she made it back inside.  They put her in a shopping cart and then went shopping. I went into the store and found them and asked them if they are going to keep her.  They said YES!!  I was so happy!!  She is a gorgeous kitten.  Her coat is grayish-brown and white and she has the prettiest green eyes.  I clipped her toenails for them.  They were in front of us in traffic and we could seen the kitten on the dash of their truck.  Another amazing example that there ARE GOOD people in this world!!
Next week is going to be very busy.  I have an appointment with my cardiologist on Monday and I will be having an MRI on my neck and lower back on Friday.  Christmas is next week and I am excited about seeing all the relatives.  I want to wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas and a Very Blessed New Year!!! 
Please take care everyone and remember:  YOU ARE LOVED SO VERY MUCH!!!

What A Day!!

Yesterday I was in the hospital 2 times. Yes, that isn't a typo. Lol  I woke up feeling like my heart was racing and I felt it was going to jump out of my chest. My head was throbbing too. I have a blood pressure cuff and it read that my bp was 151/107 and my pulse was 104. After over an hour of feeling like that, I called my cardiologist. They told me to get to the ER asap. My youngest son was so sweet! He took me to the hospital. I told him to leave & I would let him know when I was done. The dr ordered meds to get my bp down. About 2 hours later it started coming down but I still had the pounding headache so the dr ordered a CT scan of my head and more meds. They did the CT scan to make sure none of my cerebral aneurysms were leaking. It came back ok. They dismissed me and the nurse asked me if I needed a wheelchair & I told her No.  My son came out to pick me up. There is a divider in the parking lot with a sidewalk around it. We were walking down the sidewalk and my right foot came down on the edge of it and I fell hard on my left knee, left hip, and left elbow. I instantly grabbed my knee and then I heard voices all around me. I opened my eyes and there were I think 5 strangers there to help me! 1 of them ran inside the hospital and told them I fell and 2 nurses brought out a wheelchair. Since I was holding my knee, 1 of them got on the radio for them to bring out a stretcher. Between 2 of the strangers and nurses, they picked me up and got me on the stretcher. The staff asked me if I was just in there and I said Yes but I missed them so much I had to come back! Lol  When the dr saw me, he was laughing and said I was the worse case of missing someone he has ever seen. He ordered an x-ray and the nurse cleaned up my knee and bandaged it up. The x-ray came back ok and I was dismissed again but this time the nurse said there was no way I was Walking out of there! I was going out in a wheelchair. I made it home thanks to the help of some fabulous strangers, the staff at the hospital, and my loving son!!! Yesterday was a perfect example of how there ARE FABULOUS people out there and I am EXTREMELY BLESSED to have a lot of them in my life!!! Have a very blessed day everyone and remember: YOU ARE LOVED SO VERY MUCH!!

Biopsy Done

I saw my OB/GYN today and he done the biopsy on my cervix.  It hurt but not because he was cutting, I have had severe pelvic pain for over a month.  He wants to eventually do a hysterectomy.  I  will find out the results in 2 weeks.
I had to go to the bank to have some papers faxed to my insurance company because their specialists do not understand what Meniere's Disease is and all of the other things I have been diagnosed with.  The Myoclonus Seizures are getting worse.  My hands and legs shake uncontrollably almost every day.  I have no warning when it will happen.  I am dizzy every day to the point I have to lay down.  They have cancelled my long term disability payments.  When I stepped  out of the door at the bank, I forgot there is a step down.  I fell and my right hand got cut because it got tangled in the door handle.  The manager of the bank ran outside to me and was very concerned.  He asked me if I was ok and I told him about my hand and he asked if I needed medical attention.  I told him no and he said if I feel pain from the fall later to please call him and he will make sure I receive medical attention!  How sweet is that!!  I asked him if I could please give him a hug for being so caring and he said sure.  :)
I am still smiling because I KNOW God will take care of things in His way!!!  Have a very blessed day everyone (even those who don't like me)!!!  Please remember:  YOU ARE LOVED SO VERY MUCH!!!

Pearl Harbor

It is hard to believe that today is 73 years since Pearl Harbor was attacked by the Japanese.  Here is a link for msn that has some interesting pictures of that horrible day!!!    http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/video/looking-back-at-pearl-harbor-dec-7-1941/ss-BBglhkh?ocid=mailsignout&fullscreen=true#image=1
It is 28 degrees right now and the wind is blowing so hard again.  They are predicting snow soon.  Maybe we will get a snowman built this year....I don't think it is going to happen.  lol
Please remember The Golden Rule:  Treat others as you want to be treated!!!  The world would be such a nicer place if everyone got along!!!

RIP Daphne!!!

Yesterday was a very emotional day for me.  Daphne passed away yesterday morning!!!  Her step mom and my best friend, Meg, had passed away 5 months ago.  Daphne was only 17.
I found out yesterday that I have precancerous cells.  I had a Pap smear a couple weeks ago and they showed up on that.  The doctor is doing a procedure on December 15 to scrap some of the cells off so more tests can be done on them.  I am not afraid of dying because I know what it is like.  God's NEVER ending love is the most fantastic love I have EVER felt!!!   It is so beautiful there too!!!
Please everyone be NICE to each other!!!  We are to LOVE one another and work WITH each other not the other way around!!!  No one knows when their last day on earth will be so please make the BEST of it!!!  Many blessings and lots of love to ALL of you!!!

Plastic Bubble

I need to be placed in a plastic bubble.  lol   I had to go to Urgent Care today because Kyle and I have been sick since Thanksgiving.  I am thankful I didn't have to cook but the doctor thinks we have food poisoning.  Kyle is getting better without going to the doctor.  Aaaawww to be young again!  This is the second time I have had food poisoning.  The first time was many years ago and it lasted over 2 weeks.  I hope this doesn't last that long.
I can't believe it is December already.  22 more days and Christmas will be here.  I love the holidays...not for presents but for the time to see family and friends!  This Christmas will be the hardest one I have ever had.  I have lost so many people I loved.  I watched "A Walk To Remember" tonight.  I think it is an inspiring movie about how love can change a person for the better.  I cry at the ending every time I watch it.
Have a very blessed day everyone and please take care!!!
